Ahem

It appears Donald Trump took over a $900 million loss in 1995. That's all we really know. The rest of what I read yesterday is, at best, speculation.

Does it matter? Maybe, but not as much as Hillary's partisans would argue it does. If we subsequently learn that Trump was evading taxes, that would be one thing, but nothing indicates he has done so. We'd have known about it a long time ago.

We'll have all manner of October surprises. I'd be stunned if it turned out otherwise.

Well, we also know that someone illegally leaked his tax returns, no? Gosh, who just might have them? Maybe employees of a rogue government agency which has been inexplicably exonerated for its wrongdoing?

President Obama famously threatened to subject his enemies to IRS audits. And the IRS has demonstrated it's perfectly willing to give Conservatives extra scrutiny. So it there was any fire there at all, I have no doubt there would have been action taken against him.

But Millennials don't know any of that. They only hear "didn't pay taxes." Hillary has spent a lifetime manipulating people - she knows how this game is played. The really amazing part is that she's NOT 50 points ahead. How much does the public hate her, to make that so?

No question about it, Joe.

She's the devil we know.
