WASHINGTON (AP) — House Republicans have blocked an attempt by Democrats to force President Donald Trump to release his tax returns to Congress.

LINK

May 8, 2016: On NBC’s Meet the Press, Trump pledges to release his tax returns as soon as the audit is over.

Why not have transparency if you have nothing to hide?

Donald Trump is positioning himself to become the first president in 40 years to refuse to release his tax returns

How exactly can you "force" someone to release their tax returns? This whole thing was a political stunt to give the media the propaganda headline that you so dutifully used.

Turmp should release his returns but the idea that democrats in congress can force him to do it is laughable.

He should release them, he said he would. He's not like the others, remember? Drain the swamp and all that.

What a crook. How is lying and being deceitful being a Christian like he claims he is?

Why should he release them? It's not a requirement to release tax returns to be President. It also will restrict the number of successful business men or women willing to run in the future. We need more business minded individuals and less politicians running our Country.

I personally think he should release them. He holds the most powerful position in the world and trust in the individual is paramount. I don't think he has anything notable to hide either (hopefully), but he needs to do what he said he'd do, release them, and move on.

Hopefully he doesn't release them. It will be awesome to see many leftards expose themselves as people not to take serious when they are crying about something as irrelevant as tax returns

Member when the whole Obama birth certificate first came up? The left was saying he shouldn't have to produce that.
