TO THE EDITOR:
“If I decide to run for office, I’ll produce my tax returns. Absolutely. I would love to do that,” said Donald J. Trump, in a TV4 Ireland interview in 2014.
This is only one of many hypocrisies that our current POTUS has obviously contradicted himself in. Don’t the American people have the right to see his returns, so that we can know if there are any conflicts of interest?
To those people who cite his privacy as grounds to keep those returns out of the public eye, I counter allowing that transparency is one of the sacrifices one has to make in exchange for sitting in the most powerful position in U.S. government. To my N.C. representatives: listen to your constituency, because we are paying attention to how you vote. In addition to written correspondence, calls, voicemails, physical protests and marches, we will speak with the ballot and remove those among you that seem to have lost their spines in their aspirations for power.
