  1. Releasing Tax Returns

TRANSCRIPT from: https://www.nytimes.com/2016/09/27/us/politics/transcript-debate.html

HOLT: Mr. Trump, we’re talking about the burden that Americans have to pay, yet you have not released your tax returns. And the reason nominees have released their returns for decades is so that voters will know if their potential president owes money to — who he owes it to and any business conflicts. Don’t Americans have a right to know if there are any conflicts of interest?

TRUMP: I don’t mind releasing — I’m under a routine audit. And it’ll be released. And — as soon as the audit’s finished, it will be released.

Shaky at best though, he said he doesn't mind releasing.
