Of course, I did not. You assumed your idea of a psych test is relevant. It is not. Let's do what has been asked before then add on if the people want it. I do not think they will. Trump has provided nothing. Biden provided all that is required. I am sure you can see the difference.

What are "required"? None are.
A physical and showing your taxes are requirements that all the other politicians honored. Just one refused. They are not law, but they have the power of tradition and general expectations from voters. If a Dem candidate refused, the Dem voters would be very critical. It is expected. They even do it In senate races and many governors provide them.
Don't pretend required is law. There are lots of requirements that are business or social. If you want to be accepted, you have to do them. But you will not be forced by the law.

Where is this requirement written? It's the first I've heard of it.

What if Trump did release his medical exams and they show he has bone spurs...? 
Papers, news, voters expectations. Why did you post that? I precovered that so a poster would not do that, yet you did. Every damn candidate for the last 50 years has done it. Do you that that sets a precedent? Senators and governors are doing it. We expect it from our candidates. Trump in the face of that pressure, did not do it, indicating he has some serious shit to hide.

Dude, expectations are not requirements. That's my point. You are asserting that Trump or anyone is required to submit their tax returns. That is not so. As for pre-covering things, I've already asserted multiple times that I support requiring nationally elected officials to submit their tax returns, medical and psychiatric records to a neutral committee with bipartisan oversight. That's not going to happen because both the Democrats and Republicans are guilty of saying one thing and doing another. Neither side wants to do as I suggested. After all, what would have happened if we saw Hillary's complete medical file?

I'd stop calling him a draft-dodging coward and just call him a coward.
In reality, to stop the draft-dodging accusations, that's all he needs to do. He never did because he doesn't have them.

Hello Tacomaman,
DT has said many times he would release his returns.
And he has given many conditions for the release.
Not that anybody else needed certain conditions to be met, so right there he's being conditional where others are not.
And if that isn't weird enough, each time those conditions have been met, he merely changes the conditions, keeps moving the goalposts. Well, that right there tells you everything you need to know. He's going to keep changing the conditions to get out of releasing his taxes.
But there is one condition he has no control over.
That is the Supreme Court.
Judges he nominated have ruled he must release his taxes.
Actually he will never do it.
People who have control over his taxes will be the ones doing it.
And now he can't stop them.
He's a liar and a bait-n-switcher.
Sure must be some juicy stuff in his taxes!
