Trump Still Plans to Hide Tax Returns. hmmm

New York lawmakers take steps to uncover Trump's tax returns
By Lauren Pearle New York — Apr 8, 2019 6:47 PM

Trump broke with precedent when he chose not to release any returns.


Lawmakers in New York have decided to directly take on President Trump and his [previously hidden] tax returns.

New York state senator Brad Hoylman, a Democrat, introduced a bill on Monday that would authorize the New York State Department of Taxation & Finance to share state tax return information with a requesting congressional committee. Current New York law generally prohibits the release of private tax information.

On April 3rd:
House Democrats have sent their long-anticipated request for six years of President Donald Trump's tax returns to the Internal Revenue Service, the opening salvo in what could prove an explosive battle between Democrats and the Trump administration over the president’s personal finances that is expected to wind up in the courts.

Democrats have said they would use Trump’s tax returns to inform their investigations into allegations of corruption and wrongdoing in the administration and the president’s family business.

If Trump had nothing to hide, the criminal would have released his COMPLETE tax returns immediately!

A better question:
How many other - more serious - crimes will publicizing Trump's complete tax-returns reveal?
