Which raises the question: What could Trump possibly be hiding at this point? What could he think he needs to keep secret? Because so far, nothing has stuck.
Well, I guess everything has stuck, but nothing seemed to matter. I mean, I think even Trump's supporters don't deny much that's been said about Trump. So I guess it's less water off a duck's back and more filth off a pig's. It sticks. Everyone knows about it. No one cares.
Anyway, point is, after everything that has stuck to Trump and not lost him a single vote, what skeletons could Trump possibly want to keep hidden in his (presumably vast and homogeneous) closet?

Nixon and LBJ. Both took offense more often and easily than they should. LBJ was more Trump like in that he could be loud and vulgar and actually physically threatened people. Nixon was secretive and would plot some scheme rather than publicly blowing up.
LBJ also didn't like being in Kennedy's shadow.

True. He was not a nice person. Some even claim he had Kennedy killed but of course that is not verified and the only "evidence" offered circumstantial. It is still possible but not at all proven and seems somewhat implausible. Not that he would be morally above it but that he would take the risk, succeed and not get caught.

Like how he vowed to donate to veterans' groups?

Yeah, it'd probably get thrown out. Though, if you could argue it from a general concern over the ethical obligations of his tenure while in office, then it might go somewhere. Optionally, you could create a petition and try to pressure the release of them.

Replace with what? The same old crap with pre-existing conditions and abrupt cancellations?
Oh and still trying to take credit for the Carrier racket.
