        Respectfully disagree here, Shaun. I like Bernie but I think this is a misstep. You can’t run around saying how every Dem candidate must be vetting then cry foul when someone is vetting you. It’s looks hypocritical.

        But is he? Politically, what does this do but play to the narrative that Bernie is divisive and a whiner?

        The crybaby doesn’t like to be vetted, yet he and his senior campaign apparatus have been calling everyone else a neoliberal corporate sellout blah blah for years. He’s been hiding his taxes for years now. He’s been in Congress for 28 yrs and pretends to be this outsider 🙄.

        WE do care. And it isn't abt whether someone is "honest" or not. It's abt conflicts of interest, seeing where income derives from, if diversifying or blind trust is necessary.

        I love how there are people saying it's a smear to point out the literal fact that CAP has taken millions from the UAE.

        So every liberal think tank is associated with the Clintons? Now, where have I heard that trope before. Ah yes, fr Russia & GOP. Is this 2016 all over again when an independent candidate running for the @DNC nomination assume he's special & above criticism. It's called vetting!!

        @HillaryClinton never complained about the progressive think tanks that went above & beyond to attack her on behalf of @SenSanders. It seems these male candidates feel as if they're entitled to a pass while Hillary never asked to be treated special just fairly like everyone else
