Eric Trump, one of GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump's sons, says it would be foolish for his father to release his tax returns.
The Republican presidential nominee has broken with precedent by refusing to release them. He says they are being audited and he can't release them until the audit is complete.
His son, Eric Trump, said Wednesday on CNBC not much can be learned from tax returns. He said his father's returns are massive and "you would have a bunch of people who know nothing about taxes" looking through them and making "assumptions on things they know nothing about."
Democrats say Trump's returns would reveal whether he was paying a fair amount in taxes and whether he would personally benefit from his policy proposals.
The younger Trump also weighed in on the latest reports about the Clinton Foundation, saying they prove "pay to play" and "corruption at the highest level."
He also defended his father against charged of flip-flopping on immigration.
He wants "America to come first," Eric Trump said. "We've got a lot of problems in this country and we need to take care of our own first."
