Trump Goes Bonkers And Demands Investigation Into Protesters Who Want His Tax Returns

President Trump claimed that the tens of thousands of protesters around the country that want his tax returns made public were paid, and he is demanding an investigation into who paid them.

Trump tweeted:

By “someone” Trump has made it clear in the past that he means Republicans in Congress. When Trump wanted someone to investigate his voter fraud conspiracy, he wanted Congress. When Trump wanted someone to investigate leaks, he was talking about Congress. When Trump wanted someone to investigate his baseless claim that Obama spied on him, once again, he was talking about Congress.

It is safe to assume that Trump would also like Congress to investigate the protesters who want to see his tax returns made public.

The Tax Day protesters were not paid. The President’s allegation was a clumsy way to attack the credibility of those who oppose him. Donald Trump can’t fathom that a majority of the country believes he is corrupt and wants him removed from office.

These aren’t paid protesters. Americans from across the country came together because they want to know the truth about this president.

Free speech is protected in the US Constitution, so no matter how much Trump complains on Twitter, a congressional investigation isn’t happening. The fact that Trump is demanding an investigation is proof that as president, he is a danger to the liberties of every American.
