President Donald Trump dismissed the idea of releasing his tax returns in return for Democratic support for his proposed tax cuts, an idea floated by an interviewer in a story published Thursday.

“Nobody cares about my tax return except for the reporters,” Trump told the Economist in an interview conducted last week. “Oh, at some point I’ll release them. Maybe I’ll release them after I’m finished.”

Trump said he is “very proud” of his tax returns because he “did a good job.”

“I might release them after I’m out of office,” he said. “But I would never consider it as part of a deal.”

He claimed it would “be unfair” to the bargain.

“I would never do it,” Trump said. “It would be disrespectful of the importance of this deal. Because the only people that find that important are the reporters.”

According to a Bloomberg-Morning Consult poll released in April, 53 percent of registered voters believe Trump should be required to release his tax returns.

The survey was conducted online on Apr. 4–5 from a sample of 2,353 registered voters nationally, with a margin of error of plus or minus 2.0 percent.
