Jason Chaffetz has joined the growing number of Republicans calling on Donald Trump to release his tax returns, albeit doing so with a fairly unforgettable turn of phrase.
“If you’re going to run and try to become the president of the United States, you’re going to have to open up your kimono and show everything, your tax returns, your medical records,” the Utah representative said Wednesday when asked about the issue on CNN. “You’re just going to have to do that. It’s too important.”
The House Oversight Committee chairman said that he was urging “both candidates” to “show both their medical records and their tax returns. Absolutely.”
