MSNBC host Rachel Maddow has revealed US President Donald Trump's 2005 tax returns on live television.

The documents showed Mr Trump's 2005 income to be more than $US150 million.

Maddow said the billionaire had paid $US38 million in tax, but had a "big write-down" of $US103 million that year.

Maddow released the details in a broadcast beginning at 12:00pm AEDT.

She said she had received the documents from investigative journalist David Cay Johnston, after they had "turned up in his mailbox".
