Watch: Rachel Maddow Digs into Trump's Shady Financial Past
MSNBC's Rachel Maddow spent the opening of her Friday show doing a deep dive into the "extraordinary flim-flammery" of President Donald Trump's past financial dealings.

Trump managed to win the presidency without ever disclosing his tax returns to the public, marking the first time in 40 years a president managed to avoid such disclosures.
