Billionaire Warren Buffett thinks it's about time Donald Trump comes clean on his taxes.
Speaking at a Hillary Clinton rally in Omaha, Nebraska today, the multi-billionaire joked he would meet Trump "any place, any time between now and election" to go over each other's tax returns. The GOP nominee has claimed that he can't release his tax returns because he is being audited.
"Now I've got news for him, I'm under audit too," Buffett said. "There are no rules against showing your tax returns and just let people ask us questions about the items that are on there."
Buffett instead suggested that Trump is withholding his tax returns intentionally.
"You're only afraid if you've got something to be afraid about," he told to the crowd. "He's not afraid of the IRS. He's afraid because of you."
That's sure to draw some fire from the short-fingered vulgarian, unless Trump saves his fire for people who aren’t stinking rich. Speaking of which, Buffett had some words for Trump on that, too:
Mr. Buffett said he, like Mr. Trump, had made a lot of money. "I have not sacrificed," he told the rally.
"How in the world can you stand up to a couple of parents who lost a son and talk about sacrificing because you were building a bunch of buildings?"
Mr. Buffett quoted a famous rejoinder to Senator Joseph McCarthy during his 1950s anti-Communist hearings: "Have you no sense of decency, sir?"
That's a rhetorical question, clearly.
