What exactly is the end game here. Trump gets elected and turns over tax returns, then what?


The endgame is getting candidates to disclose conflicts of interest prior to the election so we have relatively unconflicted people elected. No, it doesn't solve all problems, for example in the case of two corrupt nominees, but it informs the public to be able to select the lesser of evils in that case.

what a bunch of hooey....so...you think voters are going to change their vote because a candidate, who hasn't been prosecuted for anything illegal with respect to his/her taxes, has some phony "conflict of interest" revealed on his tax return?


People are just pissed because 1) it's Trump and he teabagged the media 2) He bucked "tradition"


If people really cared, they wouldn't have elected Clinton for taking a charitable deduction for used underwear...

So, lets say we go by your idea and use it for candidates. What would have happened when Trump won anyway, because no one really gives a frick about tax returns except you loons?

How exactly would you see a conflict of interest on a tax return. Have you ever done one?
