Sounds like a challenge to me.

Sarah Sanders: Congress not 'smart enough' to look through Trump's taxes
By Michael Burke - 04/14/19 10:05 AM EDT


White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said Sunday that she doesn't think members of Congress are "smart enough" to look through President Trump's tax returns.

"Frankly I don’t think Congress — particularly not this group of congressmen and women — are smart enough to look through the thousands of pages that I would assume that President Trump’s taxes will be," she said on "Fox News Sunday."

"My guess is that most of them don’t do their own taxes and I certainly don’t trust them to look through the decades of success that the president has and determine anything," Sanders continued.

Sanders also said that Democrats are taking a "dangerous, dangerous road" in asking for Trump's tax returns.

1. What's really stupid is anyone thinking that

an elected member of Congress is going to don green eyeshades and wade into Trump's tax mess on their own. It probably hasn't occurred to her that politicians usually hire a staff with a wide range of professional expertise, including tax laws.

Sanders, in her ignorance, never even considers that with something as serious as battling with the president, it's more likely "this group" of congressmen will hire third party forensic tax specialists.

2. As if we

are to believe that IQ45 is smart enough to gather his "oranges" and do his taxes himself!

GIVE ME A BREAK!!!!

[Bleacher Creature]

3. I guarantee you that House Dems have forensic accountants ready to dig into them. NT

[mnhtnbb]

15. SHS probably never heard of a forensic accountant

let alone considered the idea Congressional Representatives would have competent staff to analyze the tax returns.

After all, competence is not required to be hired as White House staff, otherwise she'd never have gotten her job.

She is one dumb sack of $hit, just like her boss.

[Bleacher Creature]

17. Just like her boss . . .

AND her father!

[dixiegrrrrl]

4. Her poor children.

Imagine being raised by someone as ethically challenged as she is.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

5. Guess what, Sarah. There are people called forensic accountants

whose job is to decipher complex financial records. Some of them work for the FBI. They are especially good at following paper trails and discovering crimes like money laundering and bank fraud. The committees would hire such people. Be afraid.

[RockRaven]

6. They've got these crazy positions called committee staffers, who can have any background/training

the committee wishes or needs them to have.

F-ing CVs, how do they work?

[Stuart G]

7. Wow..!!!!!!!!!!!!

? Another vicious attack from Donald Trump. This statement, although stated by Sanders, came from Donald Trump. I believe he told her to say this.

....You understand that Trump insulted a member of Congress yesterday.
....So he continues insulting other members of Congress today.

[BlueStater]

8. Nice social skills, you wonky-eyed piece of shit.

Daddy brought you up about as well as he did your dog-killing brother.

[Solly Mack]

9. A Huckabee questioning the intelligence of anyone is laughable.

[dhill926]

10. she still around?

fuck off....and crawl back under your rock...

[moondust]

11. She should have finished 2nd grade.

That would surely be the bare minimum qualification for "working" in any other administration.

[struggle4progress]

12. "I have no idea what I'm talking about, but I never let that stop me!"

[smirkymonkey]

13. Stupid Sarah says what?

Hey Sarah, have you ever heard of something called an accountant?

They will look through those returns and find plenty off about them. It doesn't take a genius to spot fraud, cheating and illegal dealings in Trumps tax returns. The only reason he is hiding them is because he has so much to cover up. Just like everything else he is hiding.

[Scurrilous]

14. So says the bible college grad.

[GoCubsGo]

16. Another day. Another projecting republican.

Fuck off, Sarah.

[mulsh]

18. Frankly, Mrs. Sanders is "speaking truth to power." Not everyone is fortunate or smart enough to

go to a Baptist College in Arkansas.

I pity those who are doomed to a life is disappointment and failed aspirations after matriculating at overblown diploma mills such as Stanford, Harvard, Yale, hell, even USC.

Let's hope their second rate minds never figure out their intellectual inadequacies, shall we?

[Hekate]

19. Remind the preacher's daughter that Baby Jesus cries when she tells lies.

Sarah, you pathetic lump.

[NastyRiffraff]

20. I guess she thinks everyone is as stupid as she is

AND her idiot boss.

[tanyev]

21. To be fair, maybe Sarah has only met Louie Gohmert and Devin Nunes.

Let’s let Adam Schiff take a crack at them, OK?

[ProudLib72]

22. Sounds like SHS has brain cancer from standing next to wind turbines

There is something (a lot of things actually) wrong with that woman.
