I don't think anything can hurt him with his hard core supporters. Nothing can help him with hard core Hillary supporters. So we are evaluating undecideds reactions. Debating would surely kill him with any undecideds watching. I doubt avoiding the debates would hurt that much if he can spin them as unfair. So if he's rational (a silly assumption) he will avoid them. I'm sure his reasoning for not releasing his taxes is similar. What is in his taxes is worse than the backlash for not releasing them.
