White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders claimed President Trump’s tax returns might be too taxing for members of Congress.

“Frankly I don’t think Congress – particularly not this group of congressmen and women – are smart enough to look through the thousands of pages that I would assume that President Trump’s taxes will be,” she said on “Fox News Sunday.”

“My guess is that most of them don’t do their own taxes and I certainly don’t trust them to look through the decades of success that the president has and determine anything,” Sanders said, adding that the president has filled out hundreds of pages in financial disclosure forms.

“It’s a disgusting overreach that they are making when they’re not doing this based on policy,” she said. “And it puts every American who has filled out tax forms in the past at jeopardy.”

Rep. Richard Neal, the chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, sent a letter to the IRS commissioner demanding the release of six years of Trump’s personal and business taxes by April 23.

Neal, a Democrat from Massachusetts, is using a 1924 law that says the IRS “shall furnish” the tax returns of any individual for examination by Congress.

But Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin, who said he will make the decision not the IRS’ Charles Rettig, accused Neal of “weaponizing the IRS” against a political opponent.

He said “complicated legal issues” must be sorted out before he can meet an “arbitrary deadline.”

Trump has broken 40 years of precedent by not releasing his tax returns, opting not to make them public because he says he is under audit.
