For years now we’ve been told that Donald Trump’s insidious Russia connections would come to light if we could only get a hold of his tax returns. And Trump of course only fed the flames of these allegations by doggedly refusing to release said returns.

But don’t expect any sort of mea culpa from those who pushed this particular line of nonsense since there’s no accountability for being wrong in the media when it comes to hating Donald Trump.
Guest host Aaron Maté and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger wonder what, precisely, was even supposed to be in the tax returns that would prove a Russia connection, anyway?
