though the Internal Revenue Service said in February there's nothing preventing him from releasing his forms.

That phrase links to this article:

IRS: Nothing prevents Trump from releasing tax returns

Trump used the wrong term: he said "can't release", instead "won't release", because he is currently being audited.

The IRS said he was free to do so, but the article points out that it wouldn't be a good idea. Trump's return would be publicly scrutinized, giving the IRS more things to consider in an audit.

Personally, I think it would be dumb to release them until the IRS completes their audit, so that he can say: "Look, the IRS has gone through my tax return with a fine tooth comb, and they say it's fine." That would quickly put an end to any complaints about whether it is correct.

Maybe Romney would be happy if he could strap Trump to the top of his car and drive around for a while.

Romney has always been a wimpy puppet. Lost 2012 and losing now. Loose limbed puppet.

Conservatives cannot put any faith in his opinion.

I am beginning to think the Clintons have plans for Romney in their administration.
This seems to be the only reason for this coordinated attack by Beck/Reid/Romney/Lee on Trump.

He wouldn’t mind if the “next guy” won as long as the “next guy” was part of the Uniparty.

Trump’s not part of the Uniparty.

Trump must be destroyed.

A good point, and it wouldn’t be too surprising from their actions of late.

I’ve little doubt Romney is more interested in whatever power he may get over loyalty to the Republican party.

It can't be a coincidence that they're all Mormons.

>> My advice to Trump, do not release your taxes <<

Good advice. No need to release, because the IRS will leak them in October, just in time for the election.

Tax Cheats? Gee, it doesn’t seem to bother Democrats when it is known and proven, but an innuendo is going to sink Trump ... duh, I don’t think so.

Anything that the IRS says is a lie. It's a basic premise of Boolean IRS logic.
