Tax returns give you nothing. Tax returns give you no information.

[Tim] Kaine, in Virginia, you know he wasn't popular?His first move as governor of Virginia was to raise taxes by 4 billion dollars. He was not popular in Virginia.

If I decide to run for office, I will release my tax returns. Absolutely. I would love to do that.

If you really look, it's not a tax - it's really not a great thing for the wealthy. It's a great thing for the middle class. It's a great thing for companies to expand.

Under my plan, I'll be reducing taxes tremendously, from 35 percent to 15 percent for companies, small and big businesses. That's going to be a job creator like we haven't seen since Ronald Reagan. It's going to be a beautiful thing to watch.

You [Hillary Clinton] are going to approve one of the biggest tax cuts in history.

[Companies] are not going to be leaving, go to another country, make the product, sell it into the United States, and all we end up with is no taxes and total unemployment. It's not going to happen. There will be consequences.

I understand the tax code better than anybody that's ever run for president.

Hillary Clinton is raising your taxes and I'm lowering your taxes. That in itself is a big difference.

Tax is a big expense. And I wouldn't mind paying taxes a lot less if our politicians knew how to spend the money, but they don't. They waste the money.

I have legally used the tax laws to my benefit and to the benefit of my company, my investors and my employees. I mean, honestly, I have brilliantly used those laws.

As far as my tax returns, you don't learn that much from tax returns.

I will release my tax returns. And that's against - my lawyers, they say, "Don't do it." I will tell you this. No - in fact, watching shows, they're reading the papers. Almost every lawyer says, you don't release your returns until the audit's complete.

I will release my tax returns - against my lawyer's wishes - when she releases her 33,000 e-mails that have been deleted. As soon as she releases them, I will release.

A lot of really smart, wealthy people know that [slashing taxes on the wealthy hasn't worked.]

Trickle-down did not work. It got us into the mess we were in, in 2008 and 2009. Slashing taxes on the wealthy hasn't worked.

Donald Trump have proposed an approach that has a $4 billion tax benefit for your family.

[Hillary Clinton] is going to raise taxes $1.3 trillion.

I'm going to cut taxes big league, and you're going to raise taxes big league, end of story.

When I go around, despite the tax cut, the thing - the things that business as in people like the most is the fact that I'm cutting regulation.

By the way, my tax cut is the biggest since Ronald Reagan. I'm very proud of it.

I am going to cut taxes massively. I am going to cut business taxes massively. They're going to start hiring people.

We will have a massive, massive tax increase under Hillary Clinton's plan.

Hillary Clinton's plan is going to raise taxes and even double your taxes. Her tax plan is a disaster.

I pay tax, and I pay federal tax, too. But I have a write-off, a lot of it's depreciation, which is a wonderful charge. I love depreciation.

I pay tremendous numbers of taxes.

I pay hundreds of millions of dollars in taxes.

That is a terrible situation, isn't it? Where they can say we don't like the way you're speaking about Christianity, about God. We don't like what you just said and we're gonna take away your tax exempt status which you know how important it is.

Today, and I'm very strongly against tax increases.
