I have stated multiple times on this board that tax returns will show none of that information. It's pretty much just numbers on the tax return. The real information you want is in the CPA's workpapers. Those don't belong to Trump and CPAs will not give those up without  a fight. 

I agree the tax returns are a start for investigative journalism not the answer.

About what I expected from the debate. The Biden oil gaffe at the end may cost him dearly. He clarified his position well, but those in the oil industry in purple states (OH, PA) are only going to hear his first statement.

and they won't admit that the hostility he receives, he brings on himself (not completely, but mostly)

I agree with that. If he loses he will only have himself to blame, but of course he won’t. If he had kept his mouth shut and went about the business of governing this election wouldn’t be close. I still believe his policies are much sounder and better for America than Biden’s. And we are going to find that out if Biden is elected.

Guy attacks media corporations for years, calls them the enemy of the people, but whines if they don't give him enough softball questions or felate him.

 

I didn't hear his response, what kind of Ice Cream was ole Joe consuming?

I'd like it known that I'm the least racist person on this message board

Just for the record

 

I would like to go on record as saying Itallians suck.  Crappy sandwiches, too much hair product and they let go of the Mob.

Everybody pays,  not just the high earners. Most businesses pay a percentage of the premium leaving the employees to pay their share. I pay 95% of my employees premium and 75% for family. They now pay 4x more for much worse coverage.

Also Roberts explicitly sated the mandate was a tax, not the cost of Obamacare.  Huge difference.

Anyone else notice that Biden, on a personal level, is scared of Trump. He  almost never looked at Trump or called him by his name. He always talked toward the moderator and called Trump "he", "him", "them" etc. His insults and times he uttered 'come on, man' were always sheepish and muted.. like when a whimp mutters bad things at a bully and really doesn't want to be heard. Trump, otoh, always called Biden "Joe"  and look straight at him while talking about him. Biden was intimidated and scared

Sounds like Trump got Bob's hormones aflowin'!

Not sure it will hurt him as much as you might think:

Recent polls show Pennsylvanians generally are mixed on the practice. A joint CBS and YouGov poll from August showed 52 percent of Pennsylvanians oppose fracking with 48 percent approving. Another August poll prepared by Democratic firm Global Strategy Group for the advocacy group Climate Power 2020 showed that while 61 percent of Pennsylvanians had a favorable view of the natural gas industry, only 32 percent had a favorable view of the fracking industry, compared to 50 percent unfavorable.
