Of course it's doctored. The only real surprise is how very little it's actually doctored.
Which one is the doctored one? That is, which is the before and which is the after?

he'll share them with investigators when he's forced to do so. he may have already done that. the public will see them later on. he's not going to release them unilaterally

Does he need to share returns? Can't Mueller (or wouldn't he have already) get warrant to take them directly from IRS? Not sure how that works
― motorpsycho nightmare winningham (Hadrian VIII), Monday, 19 March 2018 18:26 (six years ago) link
he promised he'd release his tax returns. maybe we don't deserve to see them? or he's just waiting till the time is right during the case, to prove to everyone what a big strong billionaire he is, who doesn't need any help from the kremlin?

[ The conversation] started off all about him just talking about himself: And he’s like, ‘Have you seen my new magazine?’ … And so I was like, “Does this normally work for you? … does just … talking about yourself normally work? … Someone should take that magazine and spank you with it. … And I’ll never forget the look on his face … I was like, ‘turn around, drop ‘em.’ … I just gave him a couple swats. and from that moment on, he was a completely different person. He quit talking about himself and he asked me things … it just became … more appropriate.According to this, Daniels was able to achieve the impossible: she broke through Trump’s delusional solipsism, literally slapping him into awareness of another person. And she did it by refusing to play along with his self-vaunting monologue. By questioning the effectiveness of Trump’s boasting, she stopped it. We can all learn from this.

When the political system is widely seen as doing its job, somebody like Trump, who violates its basic norms, is seen as illegitimate. A politician who blatantly lies doesn’t stand a chance. But this changes when more and more people come to believe that the system is rigged and that most politicians don’t have their best interests in mind. Amid such a “crisis of legitimacy,” voters don’t particularly care whether a politician plays by the rules of the game. Instead, they long for somebody who bluntly states how rotten the system really is.
some other bullshit follows, and mostly it boils down to humans are pack animals, and never forget it or you'll pay. but there is a situation where we aren't quite so bad: when we work together. which is the other thing pack animals do well.
― El Tomboto, Wednesday, 25 April 2018 04:08 (six years ago) link
The argument that Trump won because enough people believe that the system is rigged falls down on one point: Everyone hated Hillary Clinton for doing the exact same thing. So, what, Democratic voters don't think the system is rigged?
The thing is, of course, that Trump voters do think the system is rigged, but in a very specific way: It helps black people, which is not what it is supposed to do. That is the way in which it isn't doing it's job.

WATCH: During an event with Team USA Olympians and Paralympians at the White House, President Trump said, "What happened with the Paralympics was so incredible and so inspiring to me.

I think he's just saying that it's difficult for him to spend an extended period of time focused on people who aren't named Donald Trump or at least talking about Donald Trump. The Paralympians are inspiring, but I think they'd be even moreso if they wore t-shirts with Donald Trump's face on them and chanted 'Donald Trump! Donald Trump!' while they're engaged in whatever non-Donald Trump-related activity they're engaging in.
