i feel all potential nominees need to submit their tax returns before even starting the primaries/caucuses
to atleast give people and IRS many months to find out how dodgy someone is at handling money. managing things, honesty and trust
Tax returns don't show any of those factors.
Totally true, tax returns don't really show a lot of substance anyway. At least for most people.
Ehhhhh. I still think the Trump phone call to Zelensky still looks pretty good because it points to a sitting President directing an investigation into a political enemy for the reason of wanting to take them out of the race.
Even if he was doing something wrong, you really don't want the President to be directing who is getting investigated and who isn't. I think it's a bit of a different story though if the President learns of people in the DOJ trying to cover up the story / stop the investigation due to some deep state conspiracy. Though I haven't seen any stories about that.
