To the editor:
I have finally found something to admire about President Trump: his almost quixotic tenacity. Unfortunately, he lacks the moral fiber of Miguel de Cervantes’ hero even with his Sancho Panza stand-in, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin. (“Trump wants to lower business rate to 15% in 'biggest tax cut' in U.S. history, Mnuchin says,” April 26)
At a White House briefing unveiling the president’s tax plan, Mnuchin said that Trump has no intention of releasing his tax returns. Trump characterized his proposal as “great plan”—well, great for Trump most assuredly, which [sic] its 15% corporate tax rate.
Next, Trump will probably march his top lieutenants down to Capitol Hill to try to bully members of Congress. That worked so well with healthcare reform.
“No Trump tax returns, no Trump tax reform” should be our collective refrain as concerned citizens.

Note from KBJ: We elected Donald Trump without seeing his tax returns, Jan. We don't care about his tax returns. Try to think about other things.
