I’m at a tax panel @PwCTax , where @rokumar1918 just raised this possibility for next year:
*Dems take House, request Trump tax returns.
*GOP keeps Senate, starts requesting returns of its own (for ex, of Dem candidates for POTUS)

In this era, you don’t get to keep the norms you don’t enforce. And the norm against a political party enacting private retribution in response to legitimate government oversight is one I think is worth defending.

Apart from the threatened abuse of power, my thought is “Oh, no, Br’er Fox! Please don’t throw me in the briar patch!”
