Mitt Romney is questioning why Donald Trump hasn't released his tax information, saying he thinks Trump is avoiding it because there's a "bombshell in there."
The former Republican presidential nominee told Fox News' Neil Cavuto on Wednesday that "every time" Trump is asked about his taxes "he dodges and delays." Romney speculated that Trump might not have as many billions as he's claimed, or people will have an issue with what he paid in taxes. "When people decide they don't want to give you their taxes, it's usually because there's something they don't want you to see," he said.
