Is she running for President?
She is next in line of succession after the Vice President. I want to see her returns.

No, it's a legal requirement.
As Al Capone found out.
I have to ask, did anybody bring up the hilarious conservative narrative of "wah wah Obama didn't release his college transcripts" or the even more hilarious narrative "wah wah why wont he release his BC?"
Why would republicans 'panic?' They dont know whats in them any more than you do.
There is no Constitutional requirement for anyone to release their tax returns. As such, it's a matter of personal privacy and should be respected...unless you don't believe anyone should have personal privacy.
Must be nice to just violate a person's RIGHT TO PRIVACY whenever one wants. Talk about abuse of power.
What I believe is we should see what business our president has with foreign countries. It might be considered a conflict of interest if say trump was doing or trying to do business with a country like russia. The right would turn trump into a dictator if they could.
Why would doing business with a foreign entity be considered a conflict of interest? The guy is in the hotel business. If he wants to build a hotel in Tokyo or Seville or Paris or Moscow he's going to have to deal with a foreign country at some point. It happens ALL THE TIME in business. I have clients with foreign income and foreign real estate and who visit foreign countries. Should they all be investigated for conflicts of interest too? I mean, heck, they could be foreign agents. In fact, there was this guy at the gas station today who said hello to me but, now that I think back on it, he had weird accent that could have been foreign. Maybe I should turn myself in to the FBI for being contacted by a foreigner who is trying to influence my vote in the next election.

Just remember, if they can do it to Trump they can do it to you too....and Republicans can do it to Democrats (assuming they ever manage to get elected again). Tax returns could be made a public record just to make sure that nobody is getting over on anyone else. I mean, it would be important to know if your neighbor really deducted their veterinary bills last year while you were honest and didn't, right?
It's a legal requirement to pay your taxes but definitely not a legal requirement to open them up for public scrutiny or political scrutiny.
*facepalm *
Because there's always the chance he'll put his profits over the best interests of the country.
This seems to confuse conservatives.
What are you guys afraid of, exactly? This has consistently been the one issue that you guys really freak out about.
You want to see his returns? GET A WARRANT!

I have yet to see a single panicking Republican.We may finally see Trump’s tax returns, and Republicans are panicking
Trump and the GOP would vastly prefer a permanent deep burial as distant as possible from any sunlight.
Such oversight does not include access to the president's tax returns.
