Tim Kaine Brings Up Nixon to Criticize Trump Over Tax Returns

Kaine questioned whether there could be shockers in Trump's finances

The day after he released a decade of his own tax returns, Democratic Vice Presidential candidate Sen. Tim Kaine lambasted Republican nominee Donald Trump for not releasing his.

"Even Richard Nixon released his tax returns to the public when he was running for president," Kaine told a campaign rally in New Hampshire Saturday.

Nixon didn't actually release his returns while campaigning: he released them while under audit in 1973.

Trump is undergoing an audit — which his campaign says is why the candidate has not yet released his tax returns. The campaign says the returns will be released once the audit is completed, NBC News reported.

Kaine on Saturday questioned whether there could be shockers in Trump's finances and whether Trump's investments might show connections with "people we have some questions about."
