Sure - there may be nothing wrong with his IRS tax filings; he may have gains or losses listed under "other" - but what does that mean? He reported them, and that's all that matters, right? Except for the fact that there was a particular bank lending to him, the only bank in the world that would lend to him, because American banks would not. And that bank is currently under investigation for money laundering activities for people in a certain other country; and many of those people have cozy relationships with the government of that country. And Trump is particularly cozy as POTUS with the leader of the government of that country. So - what if the "other" amounts on his tax returns happen to match up in some way with certain amounts on the books with that bank? I don't know - I'm not an expert in these matters - but something tells me it wouldn't bode well for Trump, and that might be the reason he's so cagey about his tax returns. After all - if there were nothing there, he shouldn't really care, right? The fact that he isn't "calling their bluff" speaks volumes... |

Or the simple fact that almost nobody are tax experts and almost everybody would like to selectively pick pieces and misrepresent them for political purposes.
What would he gain by releasing them? What would anybody gain by releasing theirs?
