President Donald Trump tells senators that “maybe someday you’ll see my taxes.”
The president made the evidently facetious comment in a White House meeting about tax legislation Wednesday with Republicans and Democrats on the Finance Committee.
It was a reference to Trump’s refusal to release his tax returns, as past presidents and presidential candidates have done.
The comment was confirmed by a Senate aide briefed on the exchange, who demanded anonymity to disclose details of a private meeting.
Productive bipartisan mtg today with @POTUS & members of the Senate Finance Committee. Hope Dems will work with us to deliver tax relief! pic.twitter.com/SV1aaB90ii
