Democratic Primaries
Related: About this forumShould every Democrat have to make public their income tax returns?
Or do they get to follow the example of Donald Trump and the Republicans?
Chances are, that if Donald Trump had been required to show his returns, he would have dropped out of the race in 2016. It is very possible.
But he was able to escape scrutiny by continuously claiming that his returns were in "audit".
Do we want the same thing to happen on the Democratic side?

We as their possible employer before they are allowed to run need to know how and where there money comes from, or it'll all become even more corrupted. That should be made into a law they can't refuse to show their returns for 10 years for anyone running, or else the corruption will grow , and undermine our Democracy.
