We should make sure that nobody, no corporation, and no individual can get away without paying his fair share to support America.

For 40 years, everyone running for president has released their tax returns. You can go and see nearly, I think, 39, 40 years of our tax returns, but everyone has done it.

I want people to feel that I've got their back, that they can count on me, and that the door's open, the table is set for everybody, so that nobody feels like, hey, I'm a lesser person. And it's that place of fear. It does kill dreams. That's exactly what fear does.

I can't speculate on what did or did not happen. I only know what I said and what I intended to convey.
