his own law and order

Law and Order, set up by our founders for democracy - all equal under law - everyone follows the same law. Trump doesn't want to follow the same law, but make his own law:

 

1) Say what he wants.

2) Doesn't publish his tax return.

On Friday, Donald Trump tried to walk back his claim that President Obama "is the founder of ISIS" in the most Trump way possible.
He simply blamed the media for taking him so "seriously." "THEY DON’T GET SARCASM?" he tweeted of CNN’s coverage:

What makes Trump’s new excuse so absurd — and so unnerving — is what it says about how he’d fare as president. People all around the world tend to take what the president of the United States says very seriously. Which is why presidents don’t usually make a habit of communicating through sarcasm or by saying things and then claiming they weren’t serious.
Presidents don’t go out and constantly "joke" about invading countries, or about their economic policies, or about their political opponents being terrorists. They tend to put thought into what they say, because the risk of being misunderstood is too high. The fact that CNN (and others) will take what you say seriously is the whole point.
The media had every reason to take Trump’s ISIS comments seriously
This whole flap started on Wednesday when Trump called Obama the "founder of ISIS." ("Hillary Clinton is the co-founder," he said.)
Conservative pundit Hugh Hewitt asked Trump if that’s what he really meant in an interview on Thursday. Trump stood his ground: Like many conservatives, he believes Obama and Clinton’s policies in Iraq allowed ISIS to expand, and to him that’s the same thing as Obama and Clinton "founding" ISIS.

 

 

 

It’s pretty clear that Trump wasn’t joking. In fact, he seemed keen to insist that "founder" was the correct word here.
Set aside the fact that Trump is wrong on the merits here — the rise of ISIS involved a multitude of factors that Obama and Clinton were largely not a part of. Set aside the fact that Trump is stretching the definition of "founder" here. The key point is that this was not sarcasm. Trump was trying to make a point here, and now he’s upset that the media has taken that point "so seriously."
What it means for a president to be "joking"
Any successful presidential candidate usually needs two key traits, argues David Greenberg, a historian at Rutgers University: spontaneity and discipline. But each needs to be deployed at the right time.
Trump has the spontaneity: His shoot-from-the-hip bluntness is one reason he’s so popular with voters. "There is this kind of long tradition in our politics, especially in the last 30 or 40 years, of valuing candidates who are spontaneous and unfiltered," says Greenberg. "Because there is so much spin and crafted talk in politics that we get frustrated with it, we naturally respond to people that seem more candid."
But any good presidential candidate also needs discipline — in part because the presidency requires it, particularly around delicate subjects like diplomacy or managing the financial system, where one stray remark can cause a crisis. And Trump utterly lacks discipline. He puts himself in the headlines with inflammatory remarks almost daily — and can’t seem to help himself.
"He enjoys making provocative statements, and because he is not a seasoned politician he doesn’t know when it will misfire," says Greenberg.
Trump takes this lack of discipline one step further with another key habit: He never apologizes. His campaign usually just tries to flatly deny that he said anything or stretch the meanings of words so far they lose all semblance of what was obviously said, or else Trump just claims he was joking.
"That’s a very dangerous quality for someone who wants to become president," my colleague Zack Beauchamp writes. "A poorly phrased statement by the most powerful person in the world doesn’t just help amplify bad ideas — it can actively cause an international crisis."

據CNBC的報道，根據希拉裏的競選網站公布的數據，2015年，克林頓夫婦的有效聯邦稅率為34.2%，有效綜合稅率為43.2%，減稅224萬美元，繳納並將調整後總收入的9.8%捐獻給慈善事業。

各種演講是這對夫婦的主要收入來源，希拉裏總共從演講中獲得了147.5萬美元的收入，而克林頓則從演講中獲得了525萬美元的收入，不過他們沒有提供這些演講的任何細節。


克林頓夫婦

克林頓夫婦總共賺取了1070萬美元的收入，但調整後總的收入為1060萬美元，因為部分收入因為自主創業獲得了稅收減免。

根據其競選網站公布的數據，2014年，克林頓夫婦報稅總收入為2830萬美元，減稅510萬美元，總共納稅990萬美元，支付的有效綜合稅率為45.8%。

自2007年起，克林頓夫婦繳納聯邦稅超過4300萬美元，慈善捐款超過1400萬美元。

希拉裏向特朗普開火

希拉裏的競選網站同時發布了一段視頻，內容是此前共和黨領導人呼籲特朗普公布納稅記。這些領導人包括了2012年美國總統選舉共和黨提名候選人羅姆尼、參議院多數黨領袖麥康奈爾，以及德克薩斯州參議員泰德?克魯茲。

CNBC稱，希拉裏夫婦之所以公布稅單似乎是為了重新吸引公眾注意，以瞄準共和黨總統候選人唐納德·特朗普拒絕公開納稅記錄的行為。
