Today is the 455th day since Donald Trump announced his candidacy for president, having promised to release his tax returns so American voters could discern and judge his openness, that Trump failed to deliver on that promise.
We may have clear indications of why Trump does not want Americans to see his taxes. Newsweek today published a story detailing Trump’s business dealings with crooked Russian oligarchs and other shady people, foreign interests which would probably scare away honest American voters, and quite a few in his handbasket of deplorable supporters as well. Trump’s foreign businesses pose threats to U.S. national security.

So, American voters, you know now WHY Trump doesn’t want to release his taxes, and why it’s more important than ever to get him to release them. A man who wishes to follow the footsteps of FDR, Truman, Eisenhower, Reagan and Obama, needs to be transparent in dealings with foreign powers.
In contrast with Rocket 455, Trump is a complete cipher. Rocket 455 are better qualified to be president than Donald Trump, from their tax returns.

Blind Trusts never seem to work. Mitt Romney placed a close friend in charge of his. HA, HA! So, what is Donald Trump’s Plan for Trump Organization, LLC,
Unlike a securities portfolio, where securities can be bought and sold in seconds, that’s certainly not the case with 500 whole and partial interests in real estate. A new owner would certainly want to review the financials, the viability and future for the project and, then, any partner would want to study and investigate each of the potential co-owners.
Then, a President Trump would see his name on buildings all over the world, including some of the less-friendly ones. Since he would know which buildings were being sold–especially since each would be written-up in the paper, he would know what he still owns, and what parcels had been sold to friends, foreign governments, other world leaders, and various criminals.
This could certainly be somewhat like the Panama Papers on Steroids.
Oh, and the absurd assertion that the Empire could be managed by Three Blind Mice. Even if a blind trust could be established, it just wouldn’t work!

He also doesn’t want America to see he’s a skinflint when it comes to charity, for Christians to see he gives zero to any church (no tithe), for anyone to see he has significant income from Arab princes and Russian oigarchs, etc., etc., etc.
