Bull. Trump, himself, once said if he ever ran he would release it because it's important voters know. What's changed?
And yes it is important for voters. That's what running for president entitles. You no longer have a personal life, which is why Bill and Hillary's private life is being vilified. It's a stretch, but still justified to ask questions. For one, we actually don't know how rich he is. We don't know if he's not paying taxes or giving to charity, which he runs on saying "he'll be for the little guy" and how successful he is. He can't be hypocritical.
Also we need to know if he has ties to any foreign countries. That could come back to haunt us. National security is at stake as well. There's a reason every presidential nominee in modern history has released theirs. Trump is no different, and even he own supporters think he should release them.
