Hillary Clinton: Trump Tax Returns
on Saturday, October 26, 2019Hillary Clinton Money Quote saying Donald Trump’s tax returns will expose his actual wealth is different from his claims and therefore illuminate his honesty and who he does business with. Hillary Clinton said:
“You’ve got to ask yourself, why won’t Donald Trump release his tax returns? I think there may be a couple of reasons. First, maybe he’s not as rich as he says he is. Second, maybe he’s not as charitable as he claims to be. Third, we don’t know all of his business dealings, but we have been told through investigative reporting that he owes about $650 million to Wall Street and foreign banks. Or maybe he doesn’t want the American people to know that he’s paid nothing in federal taxes” — Hillary Clinton
