Mark Cuban: Clinton pays more in taxes than Trump makes
Billionaire Mark Cuban on Tuesday suggested that Donald Trump hasn’t released his tax returns because he might not be as wealthy as Hillary Clinton.
{mosads}”Maybe @realDonaldTrump didn’t release his taxes [because] @HillaryClinton paid more in taxes than @realDonaldTrump made in income?” Cuban tweeted Tuesday.
In a series of tweets, Cuban said that a lot of people were “concerned how much money the Clinton’s [sic] have made.”
“More interesting to me they have paid 43mm IN TAXES since 2007,” he tweeted.
“I’d bet the 43mm in TAXES the Clinton’s paid is not only more taxes than @realDonaldTrump has paid. I’d bet they made more too.”
Cuban called Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton and her husband, Bill Clinton, “much smarter business people and negotiators.”

Trump, the Republican presidential nominee, has faced criticism from both Democrats and some in his own party for not releasing his returns.
He has said he can’t release his returns until the IRS completes an audit. But the IRS has said its work doesn’t block Trump or any other taxpayer from releasing returns.
Cuban has frequently criticized Trump during the election and in the past has questioned Trump’s claims that he is a billionaire.
After Trump received his party’s nomination, Cuban also apologized to the world.
“Dear World. Please ignore what the loud guy in the suit is saying. Americans are nothing like him. We love our country and are proud of it,” Cuban said
