BUSTED: CNN Exposes Trump Lying About IRS Audit To Justify Hiding His Taxes

By Lou Colagiovanni
August 22, 2016

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s nonsense reasoning for refusing to release his taxes is disintegrating before our very eyes, but that is not stopping his campaign and supporters from pushing forward as if reality does not exist. One must stay in a permanent state of obliviousness to support Trump after all.

For months Trump and his campaign have stated they would release his taxes, and they desperately want nothing more than to release them. However, as the tall tale goes, while Trump is under an audit by the IRS they have no choice but to keep the taxes under lock and key. The IRS has stated there is no law preventing Trump from releasing his taxes, but we now know the time period of Trump’s audit. We’re not even going to pay attention to the fact that this “audit” of Trump would easily be one of the longest audits in the history of the IRS, as there is far more damning evidence.

CNN has confirmed to the nation that Donald Trump is not being audited from 2008 or earlier. While there is still speculation Trump is not being audited at all, CNN’s revelation opens Trump’s campaign up to a slew of new questions. For example, if Trump’s primary reason to not release his information is to wait for the audit to be completed, why won’t he release the information from 2008, or 2007? Or 1999?

The only conclusion a rational thinking person might draw, which precludes Trump’s supporters, is Trump has something to hide in those tax returns.

But Republicans don't give a shit. They love their lying Chickenhawk-in-Chief, which tells decent Americans all they need to know about the freaking G.O.P. and its degenerate values.

GOPers always claim that he is not legally obligated to release his tax returns.


My God, they look for any excuse to weasel out of anything, yet complain about Obama and HRC openness.

And more millions from China, the same China he says is ruining us.

I have almost reached my limit of what I can digest from this insufferable, giant poison cancer cell. I don't think I have despised a person so much in my life. My hatred is not healthy. I come here for the comfort of being with others who feel the same way, but it only goes so far.

This creep is "busted" every day and the media just moves along with how wonderful Mr. Fucking Trump is for going to LA. and being so generous with his donations. Good God what nonsense.

we need to be as relentless in going after Trump on his dozens of scandals as he and the Republicans have been in going after Hillary's emails. Republicans are very good at sustaining a narrative.

We should still be hitting him on urging Russia to commit espionage and calling for the assassination of Hillary. Why have we let these stories fade away?

This man is nothing more than a corrupt, racist liar with a giant chip on his shoulders. His whole "business enterprise" is basically a giant scam with ties to organized crime. And with his lack of temperament, he is the LAST person I'd want to give our country's nuclear codes to.
