Especially when he’s shown to have fucked it up so badly.
Just to clarify, this quote was in response to Plum's remark (I did not count on Boru chiming in before I clicked "post reply") that voting in Trump based on his business record (after it turns out his losses were huge enough that he wound up being responsible for 2 cents of every business loss one year [not the entire 1990s, though]) was like voting in Jimmy Saville for his record in child care (and bear in mind, for the Yanks here, if the investigation into him is accurate, he'd probably be the biggest sex offender in recorded history with the possible exception of some of the Roman emperors.)
And Trump spent the entire campaign touting his business acumen as being the closest thing to a positive he had going for him (besides his bigotry and his wrestling heel mien), and yet it turns out that even Nicolas Cage (he who's currently working in any stinkbomb movie that'll pay him because he lost his fortune in 2009), or Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt (who blew through their Hills money because they seriously thought the Mayan Apocalypse was going to render it all moot anyway) would have actually proven a better choice in this regard.
Therefore, there actually are things the public can actually glean from Presidential candidates' tax returns. And for more information about what a tax return can show, see here.

In other words Trump is bad for the economy.
Already “My Pillow” guy, Mike Lindell, who said Trump was sent by God to give America its greatest economy ever, this week he announced that he just had to lay off 150 employees.
Oh and how's that whole North Korea thing going
