And?
As their circulation continues to decline, in a couple of years it will be possible to arrest the entire newsroom and not overpopulate the jails.
Reason number 152,347,741 why the Income Tax is unConstitutional to its very core and needs to be abolished once and for all.
Being “transcripts” of his tax forms, I imagine these were not leaked by the IRS.
I suppose it could be any number of banks or even government agencies (perhaps needing tax info for bids, etc...) Trump dealt with in those years.
Couldn’t happen to a slimier rad. :^)
Sue the NYT and use the money to build that wall.
He has spoken about his losses in the past and on The Apprentice so this is not news, yet CNNMSNBCNBCABCCBS hosts are squealing like little piggies who just discovered mud baths. I would love for Trump to sue the hell out of them for so much money they’d finally have to shut down for good. They’re already on the brink of extinction.
Funny I would’ve thought the opposite. Aren’t the transcripts how the IRS records the returns? Trump’s people would likely have the actual long-form returns. Though I suppose it is possible that his attorneys or CPAs with power of attorney could have requested copies of the IRS transcripts for legitimate purposes.
REMEMBER, if they (the NYTimes et al) can do it to Trump, they can EASILY do the same to you or I ...
Or anyone else contemplating a run for office ANYWHERE.
Good question. I wonder if a little forensics might show how the documents were saved, perhaps matching IRS technology at the time (?). Anyway, NY Times won't be saying

Exactly!...von Spakovsky makes that clear, this is a concern for everyone.
The author raises good points here, but I would not dismiss the possibility that this information was given to the NYT by someone who had every legal right to do so ... including the possibility that Trump himself wanted this information published.
One MUST presume that President Trump’s lawyers are readying a massive lawsuit?
I certainly hope so!
“...including the possibility that Trump himself wanted this information published.”

Aaaaaaaannnddd...we have today’s winning post! You betcha Trump wants to this out.
Just Democrats doing what rats do.
It is long past time that someone step up and run for the office of POTUS on a platform of repealing the 16th Amendment.
And the 17th, too!
