So, Donald Trump who steadfastly refuses to release his income tax returns has decided that anyone he vets for vice president will be required to release their income tax returns to the campaign.

In a way this is totally Clintonesque level of chutzpah (yes, I know this is an anti-Semitic dog whistle). This is an act that is so offensive to decency that you are left breathless by its magnitude. The only good thing about it is that whoever Trump talks into being his vice president deserves whatever disgrace, ridicule, and degradation that Trump heaps upon him or her. And given the background and quality of the people on the Trump campaign it won’t be surprising when the Russian mob uses these returns for identity theft.
