While it is certainly not uncommon for large corporations (of which the trump organization is not one of) to have audits that last for several years, trump has been using this excuse since the early 2000's. It is also perfectly legal and appropriate to release those returns that are under audit. In fact, corporations do it all of the time.
So, are trumps returns really under audit? Probably not, but his excuse is still BOGUS nonetheless. The degree to which trump is preventing their release gives credence to something damaging within. What is also ironic is the degree that the "trump worshippers" will go to in defending their confidentiality-something that they would NEVER do for a president of another party. That then begs the question, what are the trump supporters themselves so afraid of?
