How does that distract from the pay for play of the Clintons?

What is Trump hiding?

Why else would he FAIL to produce his returns? I'll bet he owes Russia a LOT of money.
Once again, owing Russia a LOT of money, wouldnt appear on his PERSONAL tax returns. They would show up on BUSINESS ones.. Not sure if not knowing this is complete ignorance, of if you are deflecting in order to just make **** up.

then you'd need to demand all 500+ tax returns of Trumps individual businesses if thats the goal. Clearly its not, since no one has even peeped a word about the other 99% of his returns.

Taxes have been important ever since Spiro Agnew was forced to resign. That's why EVERYONE shows them.

Has he released them yet? Here's a fair trade; Hillary goes clean on her health, Trump goes clean on his tax returns.

There is SOMETHING in those tax returns that he is deathly afraid to reveal. It is either that he paid hardly any or no taxes, or that he has income from sources he does not want made public, or he has not given much in charitable donations, or that he is not as successful as he claims, or all of the above.

He knows if he did release them it would be the end of his candidacy, and he would have to answer some tough questions. I don't think we will ever see them.

That's not a fair trade, because Clinton has already released her tax returns. Trump is behind. When he catches up by releasing his taxes we can talk about health records for both of them.

Until then, the ball is in Trump's court.
