A federal judge has blocked a California law signed by Gov. Gavin Newsom requiring all presidential candidates, including President Donald Trump, to fork over their tax returns if they wish to appear on the state's primary election ballot in 2020.
The judge wrote in his ruling that the plaintiffs"demonstrated irreparable harm" and have"shown that the balance of equity weighs in their favor." In his ruling, Judge Morrison, who was nominated to the U.S. District Court in 2002 by former President George W. Bush, wrote that the state's"concerns are both legitimate and understandable" and"are undermined when candidates offer unnecessary and irrelevant excuses for shielding the public from such information."
But Jessica Millan Patterson, chairwoman of the California Republican Party, hailed Morrison's ruling as a victory against the"Democrats’ petty politics and their efforts to disenfranchise millions of California voters and suppress Republican voter turnout."
Duh...anyone with any smarts could see THAT coming a mile away! So guess Cali’s Newsom & his pal the AG got noticed...their dumb as a bag of rocks! Cali voters must be so proud...

Of course a federal judge would rule against this; he is beholden to the worst president the USA has ever known. I stand with California. Trump should not be allowed to campaign on lies about his 'success', when everyone knows he is a total failure and tax dodger. ImpeachTrump
