Trump's Tax Returns

The Justice Department has ordered the IRS to release Trump's tax returns to Congress. Trump has a few days to challenge the order but it's unclear whether or not he intends to do so.

So, what is this going to mean?

My guess is absolutely nothing. Trump didn't release his returns not because he's hiding anything it's just that Trump thinks he's special and can do, or not do, whatever he wants.

It's going to be a big much ado about nothing. Democrats will howl about some of his deductions and how little he pays. Republicans will respond that he's being smart and doing what the tax code allows.
