Trump BEGS Supreme Court to Hide His Tax Returns In a gripping and contentious episode surrounding Donald Trump, this YouTube video delves into his current legal maneuvering to prevent the disclosure of his tax returns from criminal investigators in New York. The situation has escalated to a point where Trump is appealing to the Supreme Court to block these releases, leading to significant implications regarding the balance of power in the United States governance. The video outlines that various investigations are probing into Trump's business finances, specifically targeting his tax and business records. Despite previous rulings in lower courts favoring the release of these records, Trump’s legal team is now focused on persuading the Supreme Court to intervene. Importantly, the Supreme Court is not obligated to hear his appeal, which means the lower court's decision could stand, potentially requiring Trump to submit his tax returns. A key aspect highlighted is the Supreme Court's composition with Trump's own appointees, Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh, which raises questions about the likely outcomes of their ruling. The announcement on whether the Supreme Court will hear the case is anticipated in the coming weeks, with implications that could extend into the election period. Legal discourse surrounding this is significantly centered on the issues of presidential immunity, with Trump's attorneys arguing he should not even be investigated. However, the video expresses skepticism about the legal merit of that claim, suggesting that a president should be accountable to the law like any citizen. Moreover, the video probes deeper motivations behind Trump’s reluctance to release his financials, speculating that it may expose his true financial status, which may not align with his self-proclaimed wealth, or could uncover dubious financial dealings in relation to foreign entities.
