who cares about tax returns...what will it show you?? he is rich, and maybe not filthy rich...or he is really rich, but due to losses he is like 47% of other filers

again who cares

no-where in the constitution does it say anything about tax returns

no-where does it say IN ANY LAW or POLICY that a candidate has to release tax returns.... it would be UNCONSTITUTIONAL to require it

I'd like to see NY or cali TRY to keep a sitting POTUS' name off the ballot ....bet they cant do it


hitlery never should have been on he ballot,...had the dems run a better candidate they may have won...the American people don't trust the clintons

Obviously, Trump has something to hide otherwise what's the big deal.

We are still there. Never left and still at war. My husband just returned from over there and lost friends. So in reality, I don't see Trump getting us into anything that we are not already into.

Sorry...they have been fighting them. I've been in a room of military guys and they cheer and applaud kicking ISIS ass on their missions.

nope...how about you release your PRIVATE tax return...will you...or do you have something to hide.....


its really that simple...NO-WHERE is it REQUIRED to release a tax return by a candidate or a sitting POTUS

who cares what his tax return says or doesn't say

why is everyone that shallow, that they need to know private information of some one who is famous

There are four states writing legislation to require tax returns of any presidential candidate who wants their name on the ballot in 2020. Ballot access laws are legal and vary from state to state, and they are constitutional.

Additionally its needed because it helps you "drain the swamp" a little. Trumps refusal to release it will have consequences for all of us in the future as future presidents follow his lead, and we end up with more corruption.

This basically proves that Trump has no intention of draining the swamp, but even he has admitted that it was just a nice sound bit, that he didn't actually like it until everyone reacted so well.

But now he has won.

Libs lost that argument when Obama refused to release his college app records.

What is HE hiding?

Didn't seem to bother the liberals/Obama supporters....

incorrect....only since the 1970's..... so you would be incorrect to say 'every president has done this'



and again it is NOT A REQUIREMENT


what they ARE required to release is a ""Public Financial Disclosure Report with the Federal Election Commission."".....which trump did (104 pages worth)
