Trump says he'll release financial records before election, knocks Dems' efforts
By Zack Budryk - 11/21/19 08:40 AM EST

President Trump on Thursday blasted investigators seeking his financial records and said he would release them voluntarily ahead of the 2020 election, although he made a similar pledge in 2016.


“Bob Mueller, after spending two years and 45 million dollars, went over all of my financials, & my taxes, and found nothing. Now the Witch Hunt continues with local New York Democrat prosecutors going over every financial deal I have ever done,” Trump tweeted, referencing an investigation by Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr.

“What they are doing is not legal. But I’m clean, and when I release my financial statement (my decision) sometime prior to Election, it will only show one thing - that I am much richer than people even thought,” Trump added.

So if he is "clean," why the reluctance to release the records before? 

If he does release any records, I'll bet they will  be altered in some way.

Why should he have to?

Won't happen, he'll find someone to blame for not releasing any records, now, next year, or ever.
