Warren On Trump's Taxes: 'People Are Going To Keep Demanding It'

By MATT SHUHAM Published APRIL 18, 2017, 9:56 AM EDT

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) said Tuesday that Americans would continue to demand to see President Donald Trump’s tax returns.

In an interview on NBC’s “Today,” host Savannah Guthrie asked Warren if the issue was “over” after Trump won the presidency without releasing any of his tax returns, becoming the first president since Nixon not to do so.

“No, the issue is not over,” Warren said. “He promised during the campaign that he would reveal his taxes. In fact, how many clips have you got here? He would reveal them after this, he would reveal them after that, oh, then he put it off.”

Trump repeatedly claimed, before and during his run for the presidency, that he would release his tax returns as a candidate.

White House press secretary Sean Spicer claimed Monday that Trump’s taxes were still under audit, which would still not technically preclude them from being released.
