Executive order can fix tax oversight

Mr. Trump, you pride yourself as a man of action who fulfills his campaign promises. As president, you ordered your generals within 30 days to devise a plan to defeat ISIS. Check.

You have signed many executive orders to make good on other promises. Check.

As president-elect, you didn't control the government but as president and a man of action, who has achieved amazing things throughout a truly spectacular business and entertainment career, you should write an executive order to direct the IRS to assign enough agents to complete the audit of your tax return within 30 days to fulfill your campaign promise to reveal the return upon the audit completion.

After all you have repeatedly stated you have nothing to hide. Your loyal supporters believe you, but the few naysayers who didn't vote for you have to be shown.

No doubt the tax return will show extreme generosity to charities, payment of fair share of taxes and no ties with Russia or China or any other country that will compromise your future presidential actions.

I know that you have been busy doing so many important things to make America great again that this promise to reveal your return just slipped your mind.

I look forward to the day, within the next 30 days, that your tax return is revealed and I can tell the few people I know who didn't believe you. "See, he wasn't hiding his taxes, there was nothing to see as the president has been saying all along."
