Hillary Clinton told the press that Donald Trump was "dead wrong" on not releasing his tax returns.

Clinton said, "He's also said it's none of our business. I just think he's dead wrong."

"The reason that presidential candidates, going back decades release their tax returns is because the American people want to know."

She added, "He clearly has something to hide....He owes it to the American people to come clean and release those tax returns."

I wonder if the press will begin to cover Trump's refusal to release his tax returns as vehemently as they have reported that Hillary hasn't held a press conference because as you know, they're both equally disreputable.

I had to laugh when she said that she has created plenty of "jobs" already: "I believe I've created so many jobs in the sort of conspiracy theory machine factory..."

Judicial Watch is one of those organizations she helped "create" and they've been the leader of the real, actual "vast right wing conspiracy" in their efforts to smear Hillary Clinton and her campaign for President.

The media has been breathlessly funneling all their innuendos as if it's damning new information, instead of covering Trump's real life pay to play scams.

They used to just engage in false equivalence between the parties, but lately it seems Trump is such a terrible candidate, the media actually has to make stuff up and wilfully ignore what is really happening, just to keep the horserace going. Maybe their ratings would be better if they just told the truth.
