The claim that Wikileaks had access to equivalent Trump documents in 2016 has never been substantiated, to any degree. People sometimes point to Assange's comment that (paraphrasing) "Trump is a funny issue because any information we had would pale in comparison to what he says every day", but that was not an admission that Wikileaks had any interesting documents relating to Trump.
Also, the Wikileaks Twitter account contacted Trump Jr. directly to ask them to leak Trump's tax returns, and this fact was later used to attack Wikileaks. Why would they have taken this risk if they already had information on Trump?
