I think the 1860 election was that way. While I think it would technically be legal, if we are really at that place in this country, its frightening. And I say this as somebody who hates Trump. On the other hand, Trump could release his tax returns and make this all go away. Obama released his birth certificate, though most conservatives still believe its fake.
Who has made it that way? There are whole states that are in basically insurrection right now. They have seized total control of immigration policy, they harass the president on a daily basis, they are attacking people for wearing a certain kind of hat. New Jersey just removed the Mississippi flag. They are advocating the forcible confiscation of guns. Whole groups of people are being depersoned on Facebook, Twitter and the internet. I've heard people say when the North son the war we should have gone in and killed every man woman and child. The major party candidate in 2016 called more than half of America racists, sexists, homophobes and other names. People are being forced to subsidize Planned Parenthood. Our veterans are dying for lack of care. Everything that is destabilizing the nation is being done by Democrats, not by us.
Even Mississippi had a Demo-Nut introduce such a bill, but it was quickly squashed. Declaring there are "20 states" considering such a move is simply wrong. And as anyone can see, none of the states listed above matter one bit to Trump.

Problem is, even if he did release his taxes and found nothing, people would just find something else to put under scrutiny.
If this happens there will be a literal second civil war, and nothing like the modern democrat party will ever be allowed to exist again.
So you're saying folks would be willing to kill their countrymen over an alleged billionaire's tax returns? That's very troubling considering the entire purpose of financial disclosure is to shed transparency about a candidate's possible conflicts of interest.
Very odd hill to die on... Is that really making America great????

I recall when Mitt Romney released his .... wasn't there lots of fingerpointing about garages and an extremely valuable dressage horse?
Twenty states are considering laws which will require presidential candidates to release their tax returns if they wish to appear on that state's ballot. Trump has steadfastly refused to release his taxes.
Before the Trumpsters cry "unconstitutional," be aware that the Constitution grants the states the power to administer and conduct all elections in the manner of their own choosing.
He's not legally required to produce them. It's up to him whether or not to release them. He said no. What's your problem?
No problem, just as you should have no problem if some states decide to legally require him to produce them...
