Since trump is known to be in putin's pocket then yes every president should show his taxes.

Donald Trumps tax cuts personally give Trump an extra $15 million dollars per year.

And Trumps Estate tax cut gave his own children an extra $2.8 billion dollars.

Trump's $400,000 presidential salary donation makes him appear generous and not profiting from being president, when in reality Donald Trump is arguably the least charitable billionaire on Earth and his family has made over $2.8 billion dollars from his presidential policies.

Donald Trump wants to cut $154 billion dollars of veterans benefits over the next decade. These budget cuts will decrease 1 million veterans Social Security Disability benefits, cause 400,000 veterans to lose access to critical nutrition assistance, cut funding for veteran job training and employment services, and cut rental assistance for 340,000 low-income veterans.

Trumps budget cuts financial support for aging and disabled veterans and an estimated 225,000 could lose government payments.
https://www.military.com/daily-news/...bled-vets.html

Trump wants to cut veterans disability benefits and use those funds to pay for VA Privatization. And Trumps privatization plan would cut veterans with disabilities benefits by nearly two-thirds.
https://www.afge.org/article/trump-b...privatization/

Trump has ended programs that house homeless veterans.
https://www.rawstory.com/2017/12/tru...-care-of-them/

Trump plans to cut the "unemployability benefit" for veterans. Trump's proposed cuts would impact about 225,000 veterans and take $3.6 billion dollars from them, and Trump wants to transfer that funding to profit-making medical providers.
https://www.military.com/daily-news/...bled-vets.html

Trumps healthcare policies if enacted would cause an estimated 579,000 veterans to loose their Medicaid coverage within a decade.
https://www.americanprogress.org/iss...ying-veterans/


Donald Trump plans to cut over $150 billion dollars in veterans benefits, and his $400,000 presidential salary donation manipulation also makes him appear to care about veterans.


Donald Trump has already transferred the funding for the above veterans programs to the richest 1% of Americans via the Trump tax cuts.
https://www.forbes.com/sites/janetno...nalysis-finds/
Trump and GOP Tax Cut Could Cost Your Kids $2.2 Trillion | Time

And to further pay for Trumps tax cuts for the richest 1% of Americans republicans plan to cut Social Security and Medicare.
GOP plans big Social Security, Medicare cuts | The Stand
https://www.newsweek.com/tax-plan-so...s-rubio-729133
Trump and GOP Tax Cut Could Cost Your Kids $2.2 Trillion | Time


Trump's $400,000 salary donation is actually a highly impressive public relations manipulation. And his $400,000 donation sends out his supporters telling everyone "Trump does not profit from being president, Trump is generous, and Trump cares about veterans" (when nothing could be further from the truth.)

Exactly. Remember when he held a rally for vets and claimed he raised millions of dollars for them, but months later the vet organizations he claims were the recipients still hadn't gotten any money? If the media hadn't hounded him on it he would have pocketed those donations.

A copy of a cancelled check or it's just more lies from a consummate liar.
