Dem Rep Says Rarely Invoked Law Could Make Trump Release Taxes

Is Trump so buried in scandal and lies, he simply can never be considered legitimate? Just WHAT is hiding in those taxes that he is so desperate to cover up?

The question still lingers, is he really a legitimate President?

I QUESTION IT SERIOUSLY AND SO DO MANY REAL EXPERTS.

His grossly inadequate understanding of our constitution and its three-branch constraints SIMPLY DISQUALIFIES TRUMP AS ANYTHING AKIN TO “LEGITIMATE.”.

Trump quite certainly thought he was being elected dictator, he is simple minded that way. AND NOW HE “RULES BY DECREE”, there are no laws he can sign, BECAUSE REPUBLICAN LAWMAKERS ARE STUCK SCRAMBLING TO COVER THEIR LYING ASSES OVER THE OBAMACARE SCARE THEY CREATED,

Which only reinforces Trump’s dictatorial delusions.

It has come down to a reckoning over the Obamacare/ACA deception perpetrated by Republicans on ignorant voters since 2009. Their lie is collapsing even as they think it has come to fruition.

In their deception-fueled rise to false majority, they confused their own voters, creating an Obamacare boogeyman that masked the real ACA, and they led with that deception at every juncture. Now those voters are figuring out, as their healthcare is threatened and they discover their beloved ACA, that protects them from pain and suffering, and the evil Obamacare, that they were brainwashed to hate for any reason but the truth, ARE THE SAME THING!

Anyone who thinks that is silly doesn’t know these people.

They believed what FOX and Rush et al told them about “evil Obamacare” despite their own personal experience with the ACA. Sounds ridiculous, but it is unfortunately very true.

It didn’t happen in a vacuum. It required a complicit oldstream media and a list of common lies stacked up endlessly to maintain the ruse, but it simply could not be sustained after Trump was so unduly elected and the harsh reality sunk in.

But now that people are actually LOSING those benefits, they have made the logic leap. They are waking from their stupor. Something moves them to sanity.

Pain can do that. They are going to be very angry when the implications of their foolishness and the deception that spawned it come to light in the chaos of Trump’s absurd administration.

They aren’t just mad their healthcare is going away, they are angry they were fooled like fools.

Discovering Obamacare and the ACA are one and the same thing must have hurt, physically. These low-information reactionary voters are beginning to realize in the hardest way that Trump used them like a cheap trick to get elected, then went to DC and started dismantling their hard-won healthcare.

Call it Obamacare all they want, it is the ACA they want to dismantle, and The People they deceived are getting wise to their lies.

The problem here is Trump doesn’t care about laws but he will use the “law”.
He’s above the law…he thinks.
His usual strategy here would be to threaten, then go to court and string out the other party until they run out of money to litigate. He’s done that hundreds of times.
But now he’s up against an outfit that can print all the cash they need.

Coz I’m terrible at interpreting this stuff and am not sure how it applies. Someone, please enlighten a poor legalilliterate.
