Politics Trump’s Taxes

That is what a mature responsible person does when he/she makes a mistake.

No, that’s what a person does when they get caught lying. Mature responsible people correct themselves under their own recognizance, through some type of self discovery. Not because they’re getting sued.
I will give some credit where it’s due, however. He didn’t double down on nonsense and he admitted his mistake, so fine. If Rachel Maddow had the decency to do the same I’d really be impressed. Maybe this winter she will at least refrain from telling people in North Dakota that Putin is gonna shut their heat off and freeze them to death.

I have to admit, the OP was right. This was glorious. A glorious failure by the reporter.

Didn’t take long either.

Can't call it a failure right now. You can only call it an unverified statement. Releasing the tax and loan documents should clear it up so I expect trumps people to make sure they get it cleared up. Funny how trump gets all bent out of shape over this, but never apologized to the Clintons that he claims were responsible for Epstiens death with absolutely nothing to substantiate that. Seems besides a liar, trump is also a hypocrite.

No way he has an IQ of 132

He doesn't even have an IQ of 70.

What was the lie?

I think it had something to do with Trump's tax return showing that he paid very little taxes. Or it may have had something to do with Trump's bank record showing that Russian Oligarchs had supported his losing business deals.

Could you please clarify where the failure was? Was it that the facts were wrong or was it that the source was not confirmed by another reliable source as news reporters should do?

I believe it was the latter. In order to know if the claims were false or not, Trump would have to actually release the tax returns...

Or some government agency could also release the return(s).
