      Shaun King Retweeted Bernie Sanders

      I'm supporting @BernieSanders because I strongly believe the policies you now say you believe in should line up with the actual trajectory of your life and the things you've fought for with all your might. I see that with him, clearly so, more than any other candidate.https://twitter.com/BernieSanders/status/1104759200461262849 …

          What? I wanted to know if he had actually requested and studied the tax returns of all of the candidates or if he was just interested in Bernie’s. I’m genuinely curious. I see people asking for his and wondered if they asked for them all.

          I do think every single candidate should release their tax returns. Bernie can lead in transparency.

          Any candidate running should be held to the same standard, and I think lots of us are in agreement when we say we won’t support any candidate who won’t release their taxes for us to review. Bernie has been dodging this one for years. This is why he gets extra scrutiny.

          Exactly! He’s had more than plenty of time to get his tax ducks in a row. More than the other candidates. Unless his “ducks” went rogue, I agree with Mr Whitford. Bernie should release his tax returns. Yesterday.

          Isn’t it more about he said he’d do something and he hasn’t done it - why should he be trusted to do other things he’s promised??

          I expect evry single candidate to release them & if they don't I will not vote for them. It's that simple. We need to know where their $ comes from. Those are the facts. They can say/do lots of things that sound grt to get elected but their allegiance needs to be to the Amer ppl

          I have so much respect for you and your work and this response really surprises me. Are you really not concerned w the fact that Bernie hasn’t released his taxes? Why does he get a pass that his supporters would never give other candidates? Real questions, not rhetorical digs.

          I am more worried about what GOP knows about Bernie that they are going to hold back until he gets the nomination. And I think that if there wasn't anything damaging in his tax returns he wouldn't have been so reluctant to release them.

          It doesn't matter what was or wasn't found. He SAID he would release them. If he doesn't, he's just another candidate with something to hide.

          Bernie will soon release the past decade's worth of taxes and there will be no surprises or problems. He's already released his tax returns for a number of years.https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/2804313-Bernie-Sanders-Just-Released-His-Tax-Returns.html …

          Any candidate tied to Tad Devine and Paul Manafort who refuses to release their taxes is suspect. That’s just the reality.

          The same people complaining about Bernie’s taxes are probably the same ones that voted for Trump. Ima have to call bullsh*t on that one..
