    It’s literally the law, protecting everyone’s privacy

      Only a moron thinks the law is inherently moral.

        So you’re going to say violating someone’s privacy is moral, but only if you don’t like them? What’s the logic

            He didn’t leak every billionaire’s tax record, so don’t make it a billionaire tax record thing like this post suggests

          The logic is that you’re a troll or a Russian bot. Fuck off.

        Yes, from the comments I see sentiments like the rich and Trump fans are not people. Just dehumanize your opponents and everything is permissible.

          They are people. They’ve simply forgotten that we are people too, equal to them in every way except the size of our bank accounts.

          As for the Trump supporters, I understand why they supported him in 2016. I struggle to see why they still do after what he’s done since, ie: lowered taxes for the rich again.

          Not dehumanizing them, taking away their private citizen status, because it’s right in the title “Public Official”.

            You don’t lose your right to privacy when you work for the government.
