This is an example of Trump's common sense behavior. There is no reason, whatsoever, for his tax returns (currently on extension) to be made public. The average person cannot begin to understand the meaning of it, and in fact, tax returns are not even designed to present the full picture of a person's financial situation.

If you really wanted something the public could use, a complete set personal financial statements would be far more useful, with notes. But it would also be hundreds of pages long, you wouldn't understand it, the media wouldn't, and pretty much no one would. So, it is open season on the president.

Most of you can't understand a basic 1040. Add schedule E with 500 entities and you have no idea what you're looking at. It is nothing more than financial salaciousness.
