Trump: I do. I do. I think that some of it, I can use executive power on some. Not all. I mean, he certainly used it. He used it on DACA. He said something to the effect of “I am not allowed to do this, it’ll never hold up, but I’m doing it anyway.” And he did it, and they found judges who approved it. We also found judges that didn’t approve it, so it is obviously going to be determined in the Supreme Court. And if the Court rules in favor of what President Obama thinks they should rule, which is what they said, then I will probably have a deal with the Democrats in a very short period of time. We were very close to having a deal until we got that very strange ruling.

Reporter: You also made promises about immigration during the campaign. And I want to know if you’re going to follow through with them.

Trump: Which one are you talking about?

Reporter: Birthright citizenship. Are you going to sign an executive order to ban—

Trump: Well, we are looking at it very seriously.

Reporter: Yes or no—

Trump: And I believe we have the absolute right, but that is another case that will be determined by the Supreme Court of the United States.

Reporter: Are you going to send 15,000 troops to the border?

Trump: You’ve been reading the same documents as I have, you know exactly what I’m doing. You know exactly what I’m doing.

10. Trump says he won’t release his tax returns—for now.

Reporter: So, point-blank, Democrats go after your tax returns—will you try to block that, or will you allow them to have it?

Trump: Well, look, as I’ve told you, they’re under audit. They have been for a long time. They’re extremely complex. People wouldn’t understand them. They’re done by among the biggest and best law firms in the country. Same thing with the accounting firms. The accountants are a very, very large, powerful firm from the standpoint of respect—they’re highly respected. Big firm. A great law firm; you know it very well. They do these things, they put them in. But people don’t understand tax returns. Now, I did do a filing of over 100 pages, I believe, which is in the offices. And when people went and saw that filing and they saw the magnitude of it, they were very disappointed, and they saw, you know, the detail. You get far more from that, and I guess we filed that now three times. But you get far more from that than you could ever get from a tax return. But when you are under audit—and I’m on a very continuous audit because there are so many companies and it is a very big company, far bigger than you would even understand, but it’s a great company. But it’s big and it’s complex, and it’s probably feet high. It is a very complex instrument. And I think that people wouldn’t understand it, but if I were finished with the audit, I would have an open mind to it, I would say that. But I don’t want to do it during the audit. And really, no lawyer, even from the other side, they say often—not always, but when you are under audit, you don’t have, you don’t subject it to that. You get it done and then you release it. When that happens, if that happens, I would certainly have an open mind to it.

Reporter: So if the audit is still on, you will not turn over the tax returns?

Trump: When it’s under audit, no. Nobody would. Nobody turns over a return when it is under audit.
