We haven't seen the infamous pee-pee tape, either. No, Donald Trump hasn't released his tax returns, but in October of 2023, IRS contractor Charles Littlejohn pleaded guilty to unauthorized disclosure of tax returns and return information after leaking Trump's returns.
Politico seems sad that there isn't much of a response to Trump not releasing his tax returns.
Trump hasn't released his tax returns. The response? Meh. https://t.co/4Z4glX53XA

Brian Faler reports:
Former President Donald Trump was once harshly criticized for failing to release his tax returns, but no one seems to care much anymore.
Neither he nor his running mate JD Vance have disclosed their filings, and there’s no sign they intend to, though they could shed light on potential conflicts of interest and personal stakes they have in legislation before Congress.
In past years, that would have been a big deal — it was a major issue in Trump’s 2016 and 2020 campaigns. But it’s barely come up in this year’s contest or in the news media, though the race is a toss-up and lawmakers will take up next year a sweeping debate over the fate of trillions of dollars in tax cuts.
No one cares.
Nobody cares. Move on.

I am more concerned about how the government squanders our taxes than I am about Trump’s tax returns.

voters are more concerned how our taxpayer’s money flows to illegals and Iran etc.
Oh good Lord. Are we doing this again??? 🙄

We don’t care. We like his policies and don’t like Kamala or her policies.

NYT already illegally leaked them.

Especially since he has been treated so fairly and objectively by the press in the past.

Nobody cares because he does not cheat on his taxes.

I despise Trump. But, there is no law saying he has to release his tax returns. So, stop whining about it. If it’s such a big issue, make it a law.

We don’t care. This is desperation. 😂

Politico is trying to make Trump's tax returns a campaign issue by reporting on the fact that no one cares about them. That is desperation.
"A former IRS contractor, incensed at Trump’s stonewalling, is now in prison for leaking his tax data to the newspaper and other wealthy people’s information to ProPublica."

Another pyrrhic victory for the left. https://t.co/hAAaVjNgIF
