It isn’t just Democrats and liberal agitators that would like to see Trump’s tax returns.
Some Republican lawmakers feel that Trump should keep his promises and release his returns to the public, as well.
Senator James Lankford (R-Okla.) is asking that Trump just show the returns and end all the fuss.
“[Trump] promised he would,” Lankford said at a town hall Tuesday night in Claremore, Okla. when asked whether the president should share his tax returns, according to the Tulsa World.
“He should keep his promise,” he added.
Lankford’s comments follow a weekend of protests by groups who would like to see Trump release his returns.
The running theory falls into one of two camps: Either he’s not as wealthy as he claims, or some of the sources of his income could reveal some uncomfortable foreign entanglements.

Seems to me that if Trump had nothing to hide, he would have released his returns. I understand that he is under no obligation to do so, but since this is not just a liberal issue, he should just release the returns and end all the complaints.
Of course, like Obama finally releasing his birth certificate, whatever returns Trump does release will probably not satisfy his critics.
