Julie Pace: Nonpayment of Taxes Could Be ‘Damaging’ to Trump When It Comes to Undecided Voters

PACE: "Well, I think that’s going to be their argument. It — it — it’s not a bad argument. The one that got — I just keep thinking about, is this really just argues for transparency in presidential elections. If Donald Trump had put this information out himself in, say, may of this year, he could have dealt with any negative coverage, he could have answered these questions. If he put out his — the rest of his tax returns, we would know whether he was paying federal income taxes or not. And I think what you’re going to see the Clinton campaign do is not just focus on what we learn from these new documents, but try to use it to paint a broader picture of Donald Trump. Someone who is running on his business record but suffered a billion-dollar loss. Someone who may not have been paying contractors, people who worked for him, and yet isn’t paying potentially income taxes. And I think that that could be damaging when we’re talking about going after undecided voters five weeks from Election Day."
