Wow...
Errybody calling his bluff

Trump isn't smart enough to not say things in public...
Sure it may be off the cuff, but what if he is simply trying to pass something through media channels with plausible deniability?

Russian law firm of the year
As an accountant, I would also note that loans do not count as "income".WASHINGTON (AP) -- Lawyers for President Donald Trump said Friday that a review of his last 10 years of tax returns did not reflect "any income of any type from Russian sources," but the letter included exceptions related to previously cited income generated from a beauty pageant and sale of a Florida estate.
The letter represented the latest attempt by the president to tamp down concerns about any Russian ties amid an ongoing investigation of his campaign's associates and Russia's meddling in the 2016 election.
The attorneys did not release copies of Trump's tax returns, so The Associated Press cannot independently verify their conclusions. Their review also notably takes into account only Trump's returns from the past 10 years, leaving open questions about whether there were financial dealings with Russia in earlier years.
The lawyers could truthfully report no "income from Russian sources" even if there is a billion dollars of loans. Basically, this is a cheap parlor trick, designed to deflect from the opaqueness of his finances.

Let's assume for the moment, that it was tongue-in-cheek snark, which is the most likely explanation.Oh brother
Given the other charges now swirling around him, the remark seems awfully stupid from a PR standpoint, doesn't it?
Assume, on the other hand:Oh brother
You know you are under scrutiny for existing ties to Russia. You don't want to be caught in a meeting, or have one of your aides get caught, as one already had.
Would communicating in such a way get your message across, while giving you the ability to deny communicating?, "i.e. I was obviously kidding".
Yes or no. If no, please explain how such communication would not do that.
I thought it was a pretty stupid thing to say.
If I put on a tinfoil hat, this seems reasonable.
obviously youve never been married
"we dont have time for TV because were too busy ing"
said no married couple ever

and interracial.
who has time for message boards if they have a wife to ?
In the interest of fairness and disclosure, the letter addresses debt. Got around to reading the full text.
Which still leaves:
I am a (Cyprus/Cayman) bank.
Russian mobsters and oligarchs have deposited a billion dollars out of my 1.5 billion dollars in assets. They have a lot of pull as to what I do.
They communicate a desire to fund Tonald Drump to me.
I create a general partnership, of which I am the ONLY general partner.
I put in one dollar of equity.
The Russian deposits one billion dollars, as a limited partner.
The general partnership is a Cyprus/Cayman en y, because I, the bank, am a Cyprus/Cayman en y and the partnership was formed in Cyprus.
I then "loan" money to Tonald Drump. Either this is at a below-market rate (easy to hide, depending on how low), or some sort of equity stake.
Tonald's lawyers, looking over where the partnership is formed, and who the general partner is can also truthfully say "no Russian en ies" because they cannot see the capital structure of the company, which is 99.9999% that of the Russian oligarch/en y, merely where it is organized.
The vast army of researchers and reporters that would pour over the returns would not be limited to just poking around at the organizational docs, and could do a LOT of digging into where they money actually came from.
None of the questions will ever be truly answered until someone not paid millions of dollars a year to represent him have had a chance to read them.
The returns themselves would offer some insight, but would be a very important springboard to discover all the actual felonies, noted earlier.
Unlikely, but consistent with a desire to communicate without seeming to do so, thanks.If I put on a tinfoil hat, this seems reasonable.
Stupid either way, because it raises questions pointlessly.
Comey fired because he refused to prosecute Clinton. Everyone in Washington was terrified to say anything about him on camera according to Tucker. They would say things off camera during the camera break about fearing for their lives. Comey was a swamp creature/Globalist. Liberals are only embracing him now because they are absolutely opposed to anything our POTUS does. Trump cures cancer...CANCER CELLS MATTER! TRUMP RACIST AGAINST CANCER! REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
According to Tucker.
