U.S. Justice Ginsburg puts temporary hold on Trump financial records dispute

Donny's really desperate to keep up the facade that he's A) actually rich, and B) actually smart. When the truth comes out that he's nothing but a corrupt, weak, financially foolish blowhard kept afloat by Russian money, we'll all know the truth about him.

And that scares him more than anything else.

Wow, the Supreme Court? Trump really doesn't want his financials released. I guess when your a documented scammer you do what you gotta do.

Thos is a fundamental constitutional question regarding the balance of powers. The answer is obviously the House gets the documents, which means SCOTUS should refuse to hear the case.

If SCOTUS takes up the case and rules in Donny’s favor, we know SCOTUS has abdicated its power to Donny, just like the Senate.

Why is Trump so desperate to be opaque on something every other candidate for presidency and every other president has done for 40 years, in the name of preventing corruption.

When someone is fighting tooth and nail to prevent transparency and anti-corruption, it's very clear that they are corrupt through and through.

And yet the morons whine about us saying 'orange man bad'. Morons.

While it may not conclusive prove he’s corrupt, it allows for the reasonable inference that he is. Similar to running away from a crime scene allows the rebuttable presumption that you were involved in the crime and allows probable cause to arrest you.

Utter morons.

This time it’s different, this is harassment at this point, the majority of people that voted for this President don’t care, no one is pushing this but the weaselly Democrats, now if Trump can prove he is being harassed, I have No doubt the SC will rule in his favor.

Delay, deny, obfuscate, lie and appeal. We know the script already.

This is not about what the people who voted for him care about. Of course they don't care - they don't even ask themselves what Donny is trying to hide.

His finances are going to be very dodgy and he won't have paid tax for years. The US Congress is doing the right thing in following the money.

Well, looks like RBG just announced to put a hold for now on the lower courts in trying to enforce the president to release his taxes.

Yes which all the libs conveniently ignored. if even their icon RBG ruled this way, the case must be solidly in Trumps favor from a legal standpoint.

Do you ever get tired of putting together what you clearly think is a logical argument, and having people point out that your reasoning is entirely flawed?

I'd get embarrassed at a certain point. I respect your drive to keep on speaking even after being proven wrong so many times.

You claim he has no case. Your own hand picked icon who doesn’t like him rules on his behalf. Equals he must have a strong case. Simple.

You claim he has no case.

No I didn't.

Your own hand picked icon who doesn’t like him rules on his behalf.

No she didn't.

Equals he must have a strong case.

No it doesn't.

Simple.

No it isn't.

This is why we can't have nice things. You are entirely clueless as to what happened, make claims that are then incorrect, and call them simple.

Well, it's simple thinking alright. Simple like Simon.

Prior courts have given Congress a very wide range when it comes to their subpoena powers while policing other parts of the govt.

They do not require approval by any Judge or court or action/approval from any part of the executive branch to demand materials relevant to the investigation.

Is the current President using the office for personal gain? Seems pretty clear that seeing financial transactions for him and his close family and businesses are relevant.

Perhaps President Trump will resign rather than have these records released? I'd be happy with that. Save all the time. Then have Pence pardon him as part of the deal.

I'm fairly disappointed with Republicans on all levels who have been ignoring all the extra BS from the administration.

Trump was trolling on Twitter that he’s running the most transparent administration in history.

His supporters failed to see the humour in it.

the majority of people who voted for this president don’t care

A minority of voters voted for this president so what’s left is the majority of voters.
