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

Seriously, I think you have to go back to Reagan in ‘76 as the last major party candidate (not even nominee) to fight releasing tax returns. Reagan eventually relented, and released his tax returns that year and in subsequent runs. It’s just standard operating procedure, anyone who is even considering running for office has to know they need their tax returns in order.
