The IRS has all of DJT's information.  They've OKed what he had done because he was smart enough to play it by the books and hire the best attorneys and accountants to ensure his financials were legal and correct.  Since there is no crime, or even the intimation of a crime, then no other person has ANY right to legally obtain DJT's tax information, nor is it legal for IRS to release it to anyone except as provided by law The law ensures privacy of our citizens.  DJT is a citizen and is entitled to his rights.  That is what the courts are saying.  This tax thing is now in either an upper or supreme court I believe; and they are siding with HIM, because his refusal to release his taxes are his constitutional prerogative There is no political motiviation for his non disclosure other than giving the bad guys what they want, in contradiction with the law.  In other words, precedent is important.  If he gives in now, then they will keep asking him to give in.  Also, his actions inform the actions of future presidents.  They have no right to the information, so he should not provide it to them, as an instructive measure for future politicians
