    The majority of Democratic candidates have still not released their tax returns, by the way, but notice that nobody is really talking about that. Most of the people calling for Bernie to release his returns will never even look at them.https://twitter.com/shaunking/status/1117918081999888385 …

    As he said he would, @BernieSanders just released 10 years of his tax returns. Read them all here. They are simple. And show that even with his book sales, he earned less than other leading Democratic presidential candidates & most of the US Senate. https://berniesanders.com/tax-returns/

        I mean @KamalaHarris , @ewarren, @amyklobuchar, @SenGillibrand, and @JayInslee already have. I wouldn't call that a minority of the democratic candidates. I am glad that @SenSanders released his but he is still kindof late to the game for the democratic party.

        Wasn’t it always just the actual nominee that had to release the tax returns, not all of the canididates?

        I usually agree with some things you say but I need you to pipe down Shaun. Bernie didn't release them in 2016 so stop acting as though he did. Bernie set the date of when his returns would be released, no one else set a specific date.

        the obsession that the only jewish candidate must have been hiding something about his finances was and is deeply problematic.

        Exactly, it was never about his tax returns, it was about using them to attack him.

        I disagree. I think lots of people will look at them, and I think all candidates should release their taxes. And if Bernie Sanders hadn't released his it would give Trump an extra argument for not releasing his. And that can't be.

        Try again Shaun, Bernie made quite a jump in income etc. We need to push for age + term limits. No Bernie, Biden, Weld are too old. 65 yrs old and out, 2 -3 Senate terms, 3-4 House terms. This was never to be career, i.e., McConnell etc.
