BREAKING...Maddow: we've got Trump's tax returns!

[Camp]

Maddow wins in the long run. The long run being more than 24 hours. While the trumers are cheering an imagined victory, it is very temporary at best. The news that will have legs is the news about trump hiding his taxes and the goofy gimmick of releasing two pages from an old, very old, tax return. Bad plan, bad execution, and bad seed to put in the news.

Why would anyone be embarrassed? Somebody leaked a couple of pages of trump's 2005 tax documents. A news pundit with a TV show on cable news announced she would have the pages on her show that night along with the guy who got the documents in the mail. That is what happened. There wasn't a whole lot of hype and claims of what the documents would reveal. So why wouldn't the show announce what their show was going to be about on that evening?
trumpots are pissed off just like trump because the media and trump opponents are not falling for the orchestrated ruse designed by trump. The ruse is a fail. Everyone with sense knows it was trump that had his documents leaked to take away attention from the other more serious news, and scandals occupying media attention.

Had Bill O'Reilly revealed this, you Soros Brown Shirts would be here today screaming "fake news." But Trump is smarter than you (as are cardboard boxes.) He got the most hate filled leftist to present exactly what he wanted presented. The return confirm 100% the Trump Narrative, he was astoundingly successful and paid a huge amount in taxes. I absolutely guarantee that Madcow did NOT pay 25.6% of her income in taxes last year, or even 20%

And what can you Brown Shirts do? Call Madcow a liar? Call MSDNC "fake news?" Trump was brilliant again, and you hate filled fascists are SO DUMB.

So far no far left drone has admitted that they were wrong!

AS we all know the far left would much rather watch the world burn than admit they were wrong!

Wrong about what? Do you know who he got money from and who he paid money to? Do you know how much he donated to charity? Do you know which banks or foreign interests he's beholden to?

Show where you cared about that with Clinton?

Silly far left drones!

The new winning for them is loosing!

The Clintons released their taxes back to the 70s so I knew the answer.

No you did not care, because you do not care about anything unless it goes against your far left religion!

And the fact is Trump paid taxes, which defeats the far left religious dogma!

Also the Clintons have been in politics most of their lives, Trump has not!

Silly far left drones!

I would care if the Clintons refused to release their taxes and boy oh boy would you. You should care that Donnie Small Hands won't release his. Makes one think he's hiding something.

Every presidential election the topic of the candiates tax returns becomes a news story. I frankly have alwsys found the subject a complete bore.
I could have cared less about Obama's tax returns, just as I now could care less about Trump's.

Regardless of which end of the spectrum you occupy, it really is okay to lower your fists now and then and admit a screwup, or a weakness, or anything negative.

Left wing Slate does it here: Rachel Maddow Turned a Scoop on Donald Trump’s Taxes Into a Cynical, Self-Defeating Spectacle

Are there any Progressives who think this big tax revelation didn't go very well? That it may have actually helped Trump and the GOP?
.

That's why it's clear from a common sense perspective that this was engineered by Trump and his cohorts.

Once a con man, always a con man.

Which in turn makes abundantly clear that the obsession over Trump's tax returns has nothing whatsoever to do with Russian connections or anything else, it is in fact merely another political gotcha game that has blown up in the fools' faces.

Where were you when Nixon was Impeached.?

Are you kidding? This is tailor made for Trump. He can keep the fools salivating over his tax returns while he goes about the business of governing.

I realize they have to defend her, but sheesh.
.

I know, they look stupid doing so.

When you look at the way Maddow went about this, she failed from the very start.

Here's her original tweet, and pay attention to the way she worded it.



Rachel Maddow MSNBC‏ @maddow
BREAKING: We've got Trump tax returns. Tonight, 9pm ET. MSNBC. (Seriously)

When she say's "we've got Trump tax returns" most people are thinking of the "current" returns.

Now she does try to disguise it a bit by saying "Trump tax returns" instead of "Trump's tax returns", but still I'll guarantee you most people are thinking of the katest returns.

So from the start she not only disappoints with the fact that this was an old tax return, but of course the content blows up in her face with the fact that Trump paid millions in taxes.

Imagine her leftist audience ready to pop champagne corks in anticipation of some really damaging news for Trump, but instead the return makes Trump look like a patriotic tax paying American.

She handled this so poorly that you have to wonder what happened.

Maybe her staff told her they found something damaging, or maybe she just ASSUMED they would.

This was just brutal.
.

Yes, and I would have loved to have been in the room after the show when it finally dawned on Maddow and her staff that they looked more like a FOX NEWS show that an anti-Trump show.
Hopefully someone removed all the loose objects from the room.

Y'know, I've seen this debacle compared to Geraldo Rivera's Al Capone Vault fiasco, but there's big difference:

Rivera didn't know the vault was empty until they broke it open; Maddow HAD THE TAX FORMS.
.

And she did as a journalist would do. She reported on the facts. Funny you want to make a partisan issue about a journalist reporting on facts.

Maybe it's because you conflate Maddow with Hannity and the other Fox talking heads. They're miles apart.

you know what, I'll give you that she reported the facts. Exactly. However, her point was that there was something wrong with his return, and there wasn't. There was absolutely nothing on the planet in there for where she wanted to take it. And that sir is her melt down. sorry, just facts.

Nixon was never impeached, comrade shitferbrains.

Clinton was, though.

Actually neither..

In 1974, the House Judiciary Committee recommended Articles of Impeachment to the full House of Representatives, but Nixon resigned before the House voted on the Articles. Hence, Nixon was not impeached during the Watergate scandal.

The senate did not reach the 2/3's majority needed to fully process hisimpeachment. Clinton was impeached by the House on two charges. The first being perjury, and the second being obstruction of justice. Following this he was acquitted by the senate.Feb 4, 2012

Nixon resignation -- sitting in the student union building with a huge packed crowd watching the speech.
