I will point out that he's still apparently carrying forward 100 million in "losses" from his 1995 billion dollar loss. So his true income was something like $250 million and he paid $38 million in federal income taxes. So 15% instead of the 25% it might look like at first glance.

Remember when the media top management showed up hoping they would score a access deal but instead Trump insulted them for 2 hours straight?

Remember when all the major networks showed up for trump's apology to the gold start family he insulted and instead he sent out some poor schmuck to say trump loves soldiers and then gave them a tour of his new hotel live on every news channel

it's odd to have senators holding up regular business of government among their own party to investigate a member of their own party. i don't particularly know if anything will come of it, but they're not treating it like nothing.

I'm still convinced that this was all a big advertising ploy for the old post office property he opened, but Clinton was bad enough and America was loving dumb enough to elect the guy who at many points seemed like he was trying his best to lose while remaining credible enough to not lose the free campaign coverage airtime.

I wonder if maddow feels bad that she just took the focus off of the CBO score with her dumb tax catfish

The only thing Maddox did was make herself look like a fool. The Trump tax thing will swallow 10, maybe 15 minutes of coverage tomorrow morning, and then everyone is going to be focused on Trumpcare/Russia/whatever terror thing the press conference tomorrow will be about.

People who did care about Trump's taxes aren't going to be dissuaded from trying to get them, and momentarily changing the subject does nothing to help Trump as we had already moved beyond the shock of the CBO score. If this was supposed to be 12th dimensional chess by Trump, it was really weak. You would need to have CNN going berserk about nothing, or leak enough to raise a flurry of new questions. Unfortunately the only question people will be asking is what the gently caress is wrong with Rachel Maddow.

i don't think anyone is being held back by leadership. Leadership is quite obviously not pushing for anyone to go and advocate for Trump plans [the only time congress has appeared is to shill for Ryan's plan :v:] and has basically let the administration sink on its own accord.

The Russia stuff has gotten kind of serious, and its pretty clear that the intel/judiciary committees in the senate are concerned. Whether or not this is "Trump is a Putin plant" is another thing entirely.
