The presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump continued to refuse to release his tax returns and today declined to reveal his tax rate.

Joining "Good Morning America" this morning, ABC News' George Stephanopoulos asked Trump what his tax rate is, and Trump simply replied, “It’s none of your business.”

“You'll see it when I release but I fight very hard to pay as little tax as possible,” Trump said.

The billionaire also said he has no foreign bank accounts and emphasized he runs a “clean” business.

2. If the rate is none of our business, then it's clear that he considers the whole tax return

I wish George S. had called him out on that.

7. This tells us all we need to know...

“You'll see it when I release but I fight very hard to pay as little tax as possible,” Trump said.

Shows where his true loyalty lies.

Not for us, but for them. The one percent. The corporations.

Consume some feces, Trump, then die a slow death.

Oh, and please, please, make this a reality show.

If he can't even support this country with his tax money, he has no standing, no purpose, no rationalization to run for president.

How on gods green earth can he say he is great for this country if he can't pay to live and work and make his fortune here?

10. I try to pay as little tax as possible.

Child care deduction. I have health insurance costs deducted before taxes. Retirement fund is provided for before taxes.

I suppose you don't claim such deductions. In fact, I have to assume you refuse to claim even the standard deduction and don't declare dependents, in order to ensure that you are loyal to the US.

Our effective federal earned income tax rate last year on income over $100k was something like 6%, and we didn't even itemize. (No, we also don't pay FICA because we pay into a state-run DCP, and I'm not including Medicaid or sales/property taxes. We have no investment income to declare, so there are no capital gains or investment income.)

Sheer treason.

12. C'mon! Can you imagine an ordinary German asking Hitler for his tax returns?

Or, an employee asking his boss for a peak at his tax returns? You can understand why Trump finds the question so annoying. He does not work you. You work for him.
