Acting White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney said Sunday that House Democrats will “never” get access to President Donald Trump’s tax returns.
“Oh no, never. Nor should they,” Mulvaney said during an interview on “Fox News Sunday.”
“They know they’re not going to get this, they just want the attention on the issue,” Mulvaney added.
But Democrats assert they do have the legal authority to see Trump’s taxes.
After requesting Trump’s documents from the IRS commissioner Wednesday, House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Richard Neal (D-MA) said in a statement that “I am certain we are within our legitimate legislative, legal and oversight rights.”
