So much so that the IRS doesn't even require as reason anymore. Just request it and its instantly approved.

10. Extensions legit?

of course they are. There were millions upon millions filed yesterday.

But I would bet money that while is 2017 taxes aren't finished (that would take a miracle), his 2016 taxes certainly are.

He has no intention of ever releasing any tax info because the information in it would hurt him politically.

4. People a that level of wealth don't file taxes on April 15th.

An extension is standard, and generally multiple extensions.

Some of the required forms themselves, such as K1's aren't received until after April 15.

This is also true of most business owners. I myself, filed an extension because I'm still waiting on K1's and I'm extremely small potatoes.

releasing it for a reason (and no I don’t buy the endless extensions/audits/my taxes are super super special lines we’ve been fed). It’s pretty obvious.

8. No argument from me on that

Its just an excuse.

Although I'm positive that 2017 taxes aren't ready. There's a good chance that 2016 is and 100% certainty that 2015 is.

Mueller investigation. What’s so appalling about it all is that idiots voted for him buying his lines about how he was being audited but would release his taxes in the future like a good boy and that he wasn’t hiding anything at all in his taxes...yeah, right...Trump refuses to release his taxes for a reason.

It’s appalling how many lies Trump and his people (Bannon) fed the Trumpanzees who were willing to buy his ridiculous stories.

14. Every President files taxes.

Not sure what the head smack is for.

His taxes would be more complicated than mine even if he divested, which I don't think he has.
