Trump tweets that he will release 'financial statement' before 2020 election
Reuters 21 hours ago 
WASHINGTON, Nov 21 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump, facing lawsuits and political demands to release his U.S. tax returns and other financial information, said on Thursday he will release a statement on his finances before the presidential election, and asserted that it was his call on providing the information.
"I’m clean, and when I release my financial statement (my decision) sometime prior to election, it will only show one thing - that I am much richer than people even thought - And that is a good thing," Trump said in a post on Twitter, providing no details on his claims of wealth.
Trump also said Special Counsel Robert Mueller's two-year investigation into Russian interference in elections, which most recently led to the criminal conviction of Trump's former adviser Roger Stone, showed that his finances were in order.
Mueller "went over all of my financials, & my taxes, and found nothing. Now the Witch Hunt continues with local New York Democrat prosecutors going over every financial deal I have ever done. This has never happened to President before. What they are doing is not legal," Trump wrote.
Trump, an international hotelier and former reality TV star, is the first major-party presidential candidate since Gerald Ford in 1976 not to release his tax returns.
Last week a federal judge dismissed New York's attorney general and state tax commissioner as defendants in Trump's lawsuit seeking to block a congressional committee from obtaining his New York state tax returns. New York passed a law earlier this year that would allow the committee to access Trump's state tax returns.
Meanwhile an appeals court in New York has ruled that Trump’s longtime accounting firm must hand over eight years of his tax returns to New York prosecutors. (Reporting by Lisa Lambert; Additional reporting by Jonathan Stempel; Editing by Toby Chopra)

Well that was sort of a dumb tweet. They are required to release an annual finance report that reports all the information.
Has Trump even done that once in the last 3-4 years?
Yes, it's a requirement every year. And it's very easy to search, it's all out on the internet.
That is why I asked. Thank you.
Looks like both Forbes and Bloomberg estimate he's about 3 billion in the black. It will be interesting to see how close their estimates come.
Lie # 1,500,000
The left has claimed around 1,000 - 2,000 Trump lies for 3+ years without proof (depending on the TDS anger scale du jour). Now it's in the millions? Imagine that!

Maybe he means he was the first one in line to take a tour this morning.
He heard there was pie.
Here's another lie from Crooked donnie, trying to take credit for something he had nothing to do with.
Fact check: Trump falsely claims he 'opened' factory that has made Apple computers since 2013
If I had a buck for every time Trump tweeted this same thing over the last 3 years, I could afford to fly us all to Paris for happy hour.
Trump says he will release his financials? I do not believe him----unless Mnuchin has been able to create a second set of 'books'.
Will the financials disclose the payments to Clifford, Daniels and the others? Will the financials disclose his-----credits/loans and from whom they were received?
Will the financials reveal the name of his Hawaiian Birther investigators, their expenses and compensation?
There is so much to know about this man Trump, who claims he is the---------------what ever it is on what ever day.
Does Trump use a mixture of flour and cornstarch for eye lightener? There is just so much nobody knows about this man, Trump.
unless Mnuchin has been able to create a second set of 'books'.
Bet on it.
Right, he said that before the last election and went all the way to the SCOTUS to protect his financial statements, less than a week later he says he will release them? Not going to happen. He lied last time, he is lying this time. Fuck trump.
Yeah. And he never really admitted that he had 'relations' with Daniels or McDougal either. Cohen made the payments for Trump and Cohen is in prison. Damn, what a country, right?
Still can't grasp just exactly what it is that some see in Trump? Especially the 'white working guys'. Of which I am. I have just went back to work part time for the local school district at the age of----going to be 72 next week. Must close for a while. Cleaning classrooms. MAGA--MAGA--MAGA!!
Best economy the world has ever seen, right?
Michael Cohen received three years in prison for a series of tax fraud and lying to Congress about work he did during the election on an aborted Trump Tower project in Russia, not for lying on a loan application.
Financial Statement. As required by law. Taxes.............not so much. Why are liberal minds confusing the two?
I said financial statement. Read it again.
a financial statement does not include tax forms filed.
