Trump refusing to release personal income tax statements

citing ongoing audit.

This issue MUST be exploited by dems. Every other candidate left or right released theirs, and Trump could release previous year's returns quite easily.

He's hiding his marginal tax rate and does not want the public to know how relatively little hey pays while all the while passing himself off as the voice of the working people.

This phoniness MUST be talked about .

Those same mouth breathers don't give a shit about his taxes. If he said he hadn't filed in ten years, they'd applaud him for it.

We are through the looking glass. We've got to stop anticipating common sense or a moment of clarity to kick in with the crowd that supports Trump.

fence sitting voters are a different story. If they find out they are paying a higher marginal rate than he is, which is likely true, then it's curtains for Der Trumpster

I am predicting record low turnouts because as of right now both Hillary and Trump have the highest unfavorables ever. Both of them are at greater than 50%.

Trump will get his radical supporters, a fair (but less than normal) amount of traditional republican voters, and the extreme Hillary haters.

Hillary will get her hardcore supporters and a fair (but less than normal) amount of traditional democratic voters.

A lot of people will be sitting this one out because they are turned off by both candidates.
