California Democrat Rep. Eric Swalwell slammed President Donald Trump by using three lines and 17 non-rhyming syllables to blast the president’s decision not to release his tax returns on National Haiku Day Monday.
Swalwell, a vocal critic of Trump and member of the House Intelligence Committee, called on the president to release the documents through Japanese poetry.
President Trump claims
“Nothing to hide, or to fear.”
Still, no tax returns.#NationalHaikuPoetryDay #TaxDay— Rep. Eric Swalwell (@RepSwalwell) April 17, 2017
Democrats have recently stepped up their call for the president to release his tax returns, with critics protesting across the country over Easter weekend, just ahead of tax day.
Trump has repeatedly said he won’t release his tax returns until he is no longer under audit by the Internal Revenue Service.
