U.S. News: A taxing problem for Trump
UC political scientist David Niven weighs in pre-debate on Trump's taxes
With Donald Trump debating for the first time as an incumbent president with a record to defend, Davin Niven speaks to U.S. News & World Report about how Trump's personal taxes will play out in the first presidential debate with Joe Biden.
"I think for the Biden campaign, this is a gift that helps him solidify his message, especially to those he's trying to earn back to the Democratic Party," Niven says of claims that Trump has paid very little in taxes in recent years.
"In Ohio, we saw four years ago that Democrats lost just as many union households as non-union. Biden is trying to win those folks back, and the tax issue just speaks to basic fairness and hard work."
Niven was also joined Washington Post reporter Dave Weigl for pre-debate discussion on WVUS’s Cincinnati Edition.
