So Trump got the world to tune into TRMS... to find out he paid $38 million in taxes (25%) in 2005

Which is nearly double the rate the Romney paid.

And to boot... Trump gets to cry foul about his tax returns being "illegally" leaked. And since none of the schedules were included, the real important stuff about where he actually MADE his money isn't revealed.

Trump is smiling right now... and Rachel is the butt of thousands of jokes on twitter right now and will be a full-blown meme by tomorrow.

She was getting record ratings for her show and Trump wanted to discredit her. And he made her a laughingstock tonight.

Rachel... you shouldn't have built this up so much - you played right into Cheetoh Hitler's hands. You were played, and now you look foolish and Trump comes out smelling like a rose. You're smart enough to have realized this was a setup. Or at least you should be.

This was such a big bag of nothing, I'm assuming Trump himself mailed the 2005 return

So he can say.. see? Nothing untoward going on... I paid $38 million in taxes that year. And the "enemy of the people" MSM illegally obtained them!

Watch his tweets tonight/tomorrow.


There's a reason none of the schedules were included (which would've told where his income came from).


This was a set up. Trump himself sent these two pages.

9. this was a set up to ruin Maddow's career

her ratings are up, they wanted to discredit her, and she fell for it. she should have laughed at these 2 pages and told them to get her the entire return if they want TV time.

They are going to "Al Capone's vault" her.

...now you're blaming Maddow for your own speculative fail.

21. Makes sense if he did

Trump knows TV, knows everything comes down to ratings, knows Maddow would hype the crap out this, knows dems would be deflated, knows Republicans will mock this and use it to continue saying there's nothing there. That's the strategy - its a conspiracy built on nothing.

C'mon Rachel, you're much better than this.

Oh yeah, her ratings are WAY up!  It's because all the conservatives are tuning in to laugh at her.  I'm surprised the left hasn't figured out why her ratings are up.  No one wanted to watch when it was hail O'bama 24/7.  Now we watch and laugh.

Whatever the source of the supposed tax return pages, a level-headed journalist (they should be listed as an endangered, possibly extinct, species!) would have looked at it, realized there was nothing there, and gone to the break room for another cup of coffee.

Between her hysterical Trump-Hatred and need for a ratings bumplet, Rachel MadCow saw opportunity.

You can stop right there DUmmy and you will have summed up very accurately the end result of last night's taxmas.

They started counting tree just outside the windows, house plants, divans, and coffee tables. Then they assumed a TV turned off would be tuned into MSLSD if it were on.

The real DUmass is the reporter (David Cay Johnston ) who published the return, and said on ABC this morning Trump  paid "half" what a poor person pays.............WHAT ???  :rotf:

Frankly, I never would have heard of Jerry Rivers...excuse me, "Geralda Rivera"...without the Al Capone Vault moment. So that metaphor doesn't fly, as Geraldo LAUNCHED his multi-decade farce on America. Madcow, on the other hand, will go down, down, down...even CNBC says so!
