WASHINGTON ― A petition on the White House website asking President Donald Trump to release information about his tax returns has now received more signatures than any other petition in the system’s five-year history.

As of Thursday afternoon, the petition had over 368,000 signatures, surpassing the previous record of 367,180. The previous record-holder called for the United States government to “legally recognize the Westboro Baptist Church as a hate group.”

Trump has kept in place former President Barack Obama’s online petition system, which was created in 2011 to increase accessibility to government. The site also still states that a petition with at least 100,000 signatures will get an official response.

A spokesman for the White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the petition.

With all the challenges the Republic is facing; out of control public debt, stagnating economic growth, broken immigration system, failing education, un-affordable health insurance, radical Islamic terrorism and a plethora of other issues, it's nice to see that some Americans have their priorities straight and aren't getting distracted from focusing on the really important stuff, like being able to see the Presidents ******* tax returns.

"Desires dictate our priorities, priorities shape our choices, and choices determine our actions" -- Dallin H. Oaks

you mean crowd size at innaguration is not a real issue?

Who said anything about "crowd size" ? I couldn't care less about the "crowd size" at the inauguration, hell I wouldn't have a gave a **** if nobody showed up.

Tax reform and ETHICS are real issues.

What the hell does Donald Trump showing you his tax returns have to do with that? Or are you unaware that the IRS is actually responsible for holding tax payers accountable for meeting their legal obligations with respect to tax liability?

By not releasing his Taxes Trump is setting a PRECIDENT hence forth and we will NEVER see another tax return again.

That's Great news! unless of course you're an IRS agent in which case I suppose that would make them obsolete and thus candidates for the unemployment line.

Besides, a self proclaimed swap-drainer that for the first time in modern presidency won't even release tax returns? Sounds like pretty real issue to me.

It sounds like a "pretty real issue" to you because you're a hyper-partisan lemming looking for something to criticize the "other side" for and thus have no sense of proportion or perspective.

Why are you giving this guy a pass on what would be your rallying cry against Hillary's corruption!

How does not releasing a tax return to the public equate to Hillary Clinton's corruption?

Trump, Trump made crowd size an issue. Because he is small man spending time bringing up pathetic bullshit about how he was slighted by crowd size reporting and supposedly illegals putting in a herculean effort in blue states to vote against him. And so it is laughable when you talk about how supposedly him releasing his tax-returns is not important enough for him to spend time on.


Yes, it is important that presidential candidates disclose their finances, thoughtless lemmings like you not withstanding, Americans strongly agree on that, media will keep pushing that issue.

Yeah so? Trump makes "issues" out of all sorts of idiotic bullshit it's completely non-sequitur to the fact that his tax returns are so unimportant in light of all the other actual problems faced by the Republic that only an infant (or a mindless hyper-partisan drone) would worry about him not releasing them to the public.

Yes, it is important that presidential candidates disclose their finances,.

Finances are one thing, TAX RETURNS are another thing, the IRS has been given the responsibility to determine whether or not a tax return is legal not the public thus the public doesn't need to see anybody's tax returns. The only reason they WANT to see anybody's tax returns is so that they can cherry pick things off them to turn into political bullshit "issues".

My guess is some loon poll he read on some loon site

Poor matthew, 368,000 is not 60% of this nation

Matthew didn't say that 368,000 is 60% of this nation. He made two distinct separate statements.

1, 368,000 people signed petitions for Trump to release his tax returns.

2. 60% of this nation wants to see Trump's tax returns, including those who signed the petition.

I don't buy into polls...nobody but the whining left cares about the returns. But they whine about everything so it's nothing new

No, you are wrong, A lot of republicans want to see trumps returns too.And it isn't just to find out what he is worth. A tax return would tell us the sources of all his income.
Any foreign financial ties, including those in Russia , would throw light on any decision he would make involving those countries. We the People could then make an intelligent assessment as to whether or not Trump's decisions reflect a conflict of interest whereas he could put his personal interests ahead of American interests.

Ummm. yeah they are genius, Again Tax Returns are already subject to legal scrutiny by the Internal Revenue Service, financial disclosure is a aimed determining conflicts of interest relating to financial relationships, TWO different things aimed at TWO different objectives.

Here endth the lesson.
