Sorry, Trump, everyone on Twitter still cares about your tax returns
Donald Trump gave his first press conference in seven months on Wednesday, and of course it was dominated by Tuesday's bombshell reports alleging Russian interference in the election and hidden cameras capturing certain liquid-based fetishes.
There was another issue, though, that was very much on everyone's mind even if Trump wouldn't admit it: his tax returns.
SEE ALSO:In stunning exchange, Trump refuses to answer question from CNN reporterSpeculation was rife that the binders full of paper on the dais would offer a torturously belated insight into Trump's financial affairs. Alas, it was not to be. In fact, Trump insisted that no one outside the media could care less about the issue.
“The only one that cares about my tax returns are the reporters,” he said. “I won.”
"I don’t think they care at all. I think youcare,” he added, confrontationally.
That doesn't seem to be the case. In fact, many of the 74% of likely voters who said they wanted to see Trump release his returns in an August poll were pretty vocal on Twitter as the conference continued.
#TaxReturns began trending pretty quickly Wednesday morning, amassing 135,000 tweets in the U.S. alone within a couple of hours as people vehemently disagreed with the assertion they weren't interested.

It looks like Trump's tax returns, like many other controversies still swirling, aren't going away soon.
