After ABC’s George Stephanopoulos confronted Republican Donald Trump about releasing his tax returns, Trump chalked the scrutiny up to the “Good Morning America” host’s ties to the Clintons.

Stephanopoulos, a former staffer in Bill Clinton’s administration, asked Trump what his tax rate rate is, to which the billionaire replied, “It’s none of your business.”

“I fight very hard to pay as little tax as possible,” the presumptive GOP nominee allowed, saying the government wastes citizens’ tax dollars. “I consider it an expense.”

The ABC anchor pressed on, reminding Trump he hadn’t kept earlier promises to release his returns after President Obama released his birth certificate and Hillary Clinton released her State Department emails.

But Trump challenged Stephanopoulos’ version of events, saying “plenty” of Clinton’s emails are still missing.

“I know she’s a good friend of yours, and I know you worked for her and you didn’t reveal it,” Trump fired back. “There are emails missing all over the place, the whole thing is a scam.”

Stephanopoulos came under fire for not disclosing a $75,000 contribution to the Clinton Foundation while he was covering the Clintons for ABC News.
