He is well known for making bad choices, and he still continues with that.

Could that be because he is an idiot with a low IQ, who has no idea what he's doing?

He is a billionaire that is now POTUS... for a 2nd time, while you... well...you are here squabbling on an expat forum.

Trump has not forgotten or forgiven the FBI for having the temerity to raid Mar-a-Largo.

Patel is a name that originates in Gujarat, India. Full name Kashyap Pramod Vinod Patel. Just thought that was interesting.

Trump made a bad choice, same for John Bolton and Mike Pompao, and some other RINOS like Mitch the turtle, all swamp snakes chosen after bad advise.

Mike Pompeo was not a bad choice.

I thought he was only a self declared billionaire as I do not believe that he has ever released his tax returns since becoming POTUS 1st time around.

 

If I am wrong would someone care to post a link to them.

Actually, his DJT stock holdings alone are worth $2-3B, and that's public information. 

 

Why should anyone have to release their tax returns? He had nothing to gain, and a lot to lose releasing them. 

 

I say let's make everyone's tax returns public, what do you think?

 

Anyone that can log into their "my Social Security account" should be able to access any tax return submitted to the IRS.

I seem to remember him saying he would;

Here is one of them;

"In April 2011, Trump said that when President Barack Obama produced "his birth certificate ... I'd love to give my tax returns." Obama's birth certificate was released a week later, resulting in Trump's saying his tax returns would be released "at the appropriate time" 

 

also

!In 2012, Trump sought to have Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney's tax returns released on April 1, which "historically is the time that everybody gives them". That year, Trump also said that not seeing a presidential candidate's tax returns would lead people to think there was "almost, like, something wrong. What's wrong?"

 

Etc;

Just my point

I assume you are a US citizen, going by your remarks, so I will ask;

Have YOU tried logging into his returns?

Are they there?

Go try logging into his returns.

Expand  

No, your point was that Trump's returns should be public, not everyone's. 

 

While it would bother me if he said he would release it, and then didn't, I do not see the point of it. If he is a tax evader, put him in jail, If he is not, let it go.

 

I can't log into your return, why should I be able to log into Trump's?

I did NOT say that.

I said that Trump said HIS/Presidential returns should be public;

"I'd love to give my tax returns." 

Trump also said that not seeing a presidential candidate's tax returns would lead people to think there was "almost, like, something wrong. What's wrong".

Then I think he lied if he actually said he'd release the and did not, which I disapprove of. 

 

Do you think everyone's return should be public or not?

No, we were discussing how great Kash Patel would be as the FBI director, and I responded to your off-topic post:

Now you want to lie about it, but it was you that started the whole tax returns idiocy, not me. You only have ten posts and you're already lying and going off topic. You must be a leftist.

Thats a triple bingo!

After firing Comey ( setting up Trumps transition team).

Trump needed a replacement , who does he go to for advice , Chris Christy,

Pompao was against releasing the Jfk files in its entirety.

We were not discussing "Kash Patel".

I do not know or care who or what it is.

You jumped into, and took over, a reply I had made to another poster about Trump being/not being a Billionaire.

I assume you are now finished with the Trump Billionaire connection and if so please feel free to return to whatever you were discussing before you interrupted my discussion with another poster.

Between Patel, Bondi, and Gabbard, I imagine that most of the far-Left USA AN members are now expecting to be Black-Bagged in Bangkok and tossed into a MAGA concentration camp for being, well, a USA far-Leftie.  I expect these people to be absolute wreaks at the end of four years when it becomes evident that Team Trump could care less about them. But no doubt we'll be entertained by four years of hysterical hyperbole.
