I think Trump has the thinnest skin of any presidential candidate in decades at least.

I'm guessing he's heavily leveraged - has a lot of loan debt and is in a dependent/indentured position with investors and/or banks.....

both forbes and bloomberg estimate trump's worth at $4billion, not the $10billion that trump claims ( unfortunately his financial statement lacked a lot of details ). my guess, based on the way trump inflates his attendance numbers, is that his tax returns would confirm forbes and bloomberg.

You're right in my case. I don't care what his tax returns say. I care what my tax returns say.
What he has said is that he pays as little as possible. He doesn't like the way government spends his money and wants to keep as much of it as he can.
I hear that from nearly everyone and they have much smaller incomes than Trump.

yes, of course it is. It offsets the businesses income and becomes Clintons thus subjecting her to taxes

I'm sure she laundered the money through her campaign or the foundation.

What a flaming hypocrite Romney is. He was very resistant to releasing his own tax records and still hasn't come clean.

Mr. Trump's supporters are not going to care, or understand, obscure tax issues. A cult of personality.

If its something illegal, it doesn't matter if they care or not. He would be disqualified and forced to suspend his campaign.

After Romney was victimized by Harry Reid on the senate floor speculating about Romneys taxes that he surmised Romney hadn't paid in years its unbelievable to me that Romney would lower himself to the same tactics. I guess there is no point in being an establishment hack if you can't act like one.

the GOP establishment is getting desperate......lol
