NEW YORK<\/strong> – This morning, Donald Ducks made his official debut in front of Trump Tower, where he called on Donald Trump to stop ducking and release his tax returns.
\n 
\n“What is he trying to hide? Is it because he’s not as rich as he says? Is it because he doesn’t donate to charity like he says? Is it because he doesn’t pay any taxes? Is it because he has foreign investments that could compromise national security? Whatever it is – it’s no excuse. Donald Trump should stop ducking and release his tax returns to the American people,” said Mr. Ducks.
\n 
\nLater today, Donald Ducks will be in Charlotte, North Carolina, and will continue to trail Trump and his running mate until Trump finally releases his tax returns – the way nominees from both parties have done for the last 40 years<\/a>.<\/p>\n
