Biden said voters 'don't deserve' to know his opinion on court packing

He can go back to being a full time businessman any time he wants. We only get one president at a time, a full-time job and yes it comes with strings attached.

For the position of President of the United States there are a number of good reasons why the subjects of the president's physical, mental and financial health are reasonable for public scrutiny. Trump fails on all three.

No law he has to produce his tax statement and the public was informed of his health tests.. Now lets talk about Biden's health reports..

But not that string. There is no law requiring a President to release his tax returns. If you want to know his finances, go to the Federal Election Commission website and look up his financial returns.

Let me point out that the privacy of tax returns is protected by law -- and by the Constitution.

Article IV
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

Where is the probable cause?

You are quite right Vern and believe it or not I think your argument is sound

....however , For many decades all those that were elected President showed the people of the United States some respect. They opened up and showed us all where their money came from .

They all opened up to prove the Leader of the United States had nothing to hide . But this guy didn't .... if he can't show us the respect then I'm thinking it's because he has something to hide .

why be private if there is nothing to hide ? ... if privacy is that important to him then maybe he shouldn't have run for President

And is it your opinion that Biden does not fail on those three?

Has he offered a definitive diagnosis for what appears to be Alzheimer's? Has he come clean on deals with the Ukraine?

Or are your standards one-sided, and not applicable to Democrats?

Tax return is the gold standard for a good faith show to the voters of no conflicts, because false tax returns carry penalty of law.

If showing his returns would help him get re-elected Trump would do it. He wants to be re-elected, but he won't release those returns. Even his supporters will admit that he has something to hide.

If the reports are true, he owes many millions, the kind of money that might only come from the Arabs or Chinese. They will want something in return.

And do you hold Biden to the same standard?

[jdmcgrath]

Biden put his tax return on the internet so yes.

[Sako]

yeah and he funneled chink money through his son hunter to hide fraud on his own returns.

Whack-a-mole with Biden rumors.

Meanwhile you have a guy who won't release his taxes,

does run a pay-for-play scheme at his golf clubs,

is on record as saying US businessmen ought to be able to pay bribes to advance their interests,

and you're thinking there's no corruption there. Seriously, come on, guy.

ZZZZZZ

Yes that is the correct reaction to Biden's no-comment on court packing. I agree.

[rayg]

Please explain your post...

In light of Biden's deteriorating mental health or has Nancy possibly set Biden up to be removed with the 25th Amendment ploy? If Biden was elected Harris would certainly knife him in the back and the other National Socialists would go along. Nancy is also counting on the Senate being flipped as well. This is starting to look like a chess game of "long knives".

What about his dealings with the Ukraine?
