The public may not see Trump's tax records before the 2020 election, despite the Supreme Court's rulings against him
- The Supreme Court ruled on Thursday that New York prosecutors can see President Donald Trump's financial records and that Congress has the authority to subpoena the president's records.
- But the public might not see Trump's tax returns soon, or ever.
- Legal experts say that the process of filing criminal charges against Trump in New York and settling the issue of what standards Congress must meet to subpoena the president could both take months.
- However, there is a chance Trump's records could be made public before November if a grand jury quickly indicts the president and the Manhattan DA's office moves forward with a criminal prosecution.
