I personally don't understand this obsession with Trump's - taxes. He's not in trouble with the IRS.

This so called tradition of releasing taxes is a spin, so politicians who plan on staying in politics for life will adjust their taxes to pass muster if it’s exposed to the public.

All these politicians who are lifers structure their taxes and know how to hide income, like John Kerry, to "show " their prime income is from their income as politicians. Financial disclosure forms are designed in such a way so as not to harm the politician involved. It’s part of being in the "club."

Trump was a private citizen and not in the "club" and didn't think that way.

So no matter what is on his tax return, it will look different and that will be discussed ad nauseum by the MSM and Democrats to discredit the outsider. It's an old trick.
