Democrat legislators and the governor in California don’t think the U.S. Constitution controls their actions. Gov. Gavin Newsom, who routinely violates federal immigration laws by foster sanctuary cities, now has signed a state law to essentially ban Donald Trump from running for re-election.

The law is blatantly unconstitutional.

Liberal Democrats are livid that Trump has not released his tax returns. They lust after those returns because they want their cohorts in the liberal media to dissect them to show any hint of blatant capitalism that Trump displayed in his previous business affairs.

Trump has every right to withhold them and it is illegal for the IRS to release them without his consent.

The new “law” in California requires that any presidential candidate who appears on the primary ballot in that state to disclose their federal tax returns. If Trump were banned from the primary ballot in California, he still would appear on the general election ballot in 2020.

This law is so outrageous that even former California Gov. Jerry Brown – a flaming liberal – vetoed a similar bill when he was in office.

California Democrats know they can’t defeat Trump in 2020, so they have concocted this scheme. They understand that it can’t withstand a court test but they underlying motive is to try to put public pressure on Trump and make it seem like he is hiding some dark secrets in his returns.

The IRS audited Trump almost every year. They scrutinized his personal and business returns. There were no problems.

The Democrats preach class envy and they hope that turning a public spotlight on those returns would damage Trump politically. California – home of fruits and nuts.
