The only thing up is that the republicans and dems are working together to destroy him. I'm telling you it's unheard of for fellow republicans to request tax returns (never have they requested past ones)of other republicans. They have jumped the shark on this one. Really jumped it. The tax return game is left for the two eventual nominees to fight out amongst themselves. I guarantee you Romney and the others already know they will find nothing in Cruz or Rubio return or they wouldn't ask. This is a fishing expedition on the republican parties part to stop Trump. He should tell them he will release them in due time like all the other candidates say all the time.
Establishment is targeting Trump, during an interview today Mitt Romney said that Cruz and Rubio have not released their taxes as well and it seems that only Trump's return has a bombshell.

Well, Cruz and Rubio probably do their taxes on TurboTax . . . .
Romney was interviewed on one of the news broadcasts. He is intimating--not saying definitely-- that the reason Trump promised his returns in October and still hasn't produced them is because they could show that all that talk about helping the VA is just talk, and that he's donated nothing to their cause. Or they could show that Trump is worth not quite as much as he has been bragging, and nowhere near 10 billion.
Not that his fanboys care if he lies--they obviously don't, but it will be fodder for his opponents, and will indicate that his word is not worth much.
I have no love for Trump but I cannot imagine him being dumb enough to run for president with a bombshell in his tax returns. That would be insane. Wait...
Agreed. Romney is just attempting to "out Trump" Trump, by starting a smear campaign that has no basis in fact, in hopes that it will effect the Trump campaign. Unfortunately for Romney, and the establishment behind him, they do not have the good little foot soldiers to go forth and spread the smears like Trump does.
How would Romney know? Pretty sure he hasn't seen Mr. Trump's 1040s.
Mr. Trump's supporters are not going to care, or understand, obscure tax issues. A cult of personality.

That is not who this is directed towards. You are correct, just like the Obamabots, Trump idolizers will brush this off. This little "Trump-like" smear campaign is intended for those who have not yet decided on who to vote for.

I don't think he is worth $10 billion . . . probably much closer than $4 billion estimated by various publications. $4 billion is still a crazy amount of money, and certainly nothing to be ashamed of, but he has publicly represented he's worth $10 billion.
Mr. Trump is VERY sensitive about that, as stupid as that may seem. When Mr. Trump was roasted for a Comedy Central show, he requested the comedians roasting him that the only thing off limits is saying that he is really worth less than he claims. One of the comedians, Anthony Jeselnik, revealed that. Most people getting roasted apparently ask that stuff like do not insult their mom (Charlie Sheen) or mention their rape conviction (Mike Tyson). I thought that was kinda telling. lol
