Question about Mr. Trump and income tax disclosure

No, not about disclosing past returns. I'm talking about future tax returns if he is elected POTUS.

I know it's always a big media item whenever the sitting President reveals his returns. What I don't know is if that's a requirement or if it's just something that they do voluntarily.

If it's the former, I wonder if Mr. Trump knows this (or even cares, once he is in the Oval Office).

Just curious, more than anything else.

Damn the Constitution! Once he's POTUS, he can change all those stupid laws. Trust him on this.

DItto... same question but applied to all his assets. Generally Presidents-elect resign from all Boards and place assets in a blind trust. I'm curious to know Donald's plan.

Boards? Like the board of the Clinton Foundation? Oh yeah, Hilary is not on the board. Just her husband and daughter. Nothing to see there.
