Michael Cohen Reveals Trump’s ‘Biggest Fear’ About His Tax Returns Being Released

Michael Cohen, a former “fixer” for President Donald Trump, revealed why the president has adamantly refused to release his tax records despite ongoing demands for him to do so.

Cohen appeared on CNN’s “New Day” with Alyson Camerota where he was asked if he was aware of why Trump refuses to release his tax records.

“Michael, do you know what’s in 👤Donald Trump’s taxes that he doesn’t want to reveal?” Camerota asked.

He immediately responded with an explanation as he highlighted multiple reasons why he believes Trump is fighting to conceal his tax records.

“Yea, the fact that he doesn’t report the income that he claims. His wealth is not as significant. And I believe that they were probably very lenient in how they took deductions,” Cohen said.

He continued, “His biggest fear is that, if in fact that tax return is released, that there’s a whole slew of organizations, of accountants, and forensic accountants that will rip through it, and he will end up with a massive tax bill, fraud, penalties, fines, and possibly even, you know, tax fraud.”
