The problem is he's a hypocrite. How can you accuse the media of lying and lie all he time yourself? His IRS lie being the worst. He kept saying he couldn't do it, but that's just a straight lie.

I don't see the argument you're making.

A free citizen has a right to keep their tax documents private. We can't feel entitled about that.

There's a difference between saying "It's my right not to do this thing" and "I can't do that thing". Either can be true or false. In the case of the taxes, he said the latter, and it was false.

No, you are wrong. He's simply choosing to not reveal it.
