(81 posts)I'm not sure what I expect to see on the Sanders' tax return, but there IS something there, or they'd just release the whole thing. We're not talking big bucks, so what's the big deal? The "release" today is the same thing that's been hanging out there for a while. They think we're all stupid, and, apparently, many are.
My gut is telling me that Jane is playing it a bit fast and loose with the tax return, it's not like she's never done that with money before. They own (or owned) rental property, there'd be a schedule E if they still owned rental property and a schedule D if the sold it. Their itemized deductions are kind of out of whack for income level, so I'd be interested to see what those are. It's not the amount of money, the Clintons money dwarfs theirs, it's a matter of honesty and due diligence.
What makes me most angry is what I call the "don't worry your pretty little head about it" attitude about his whole campaign, not just taxes (though that is kind of my thing). It happens over and over and this tax return BS is just the latest bit.
I'm an "unenrolled" voter in MA. I'm liberal and I vote Democrat about 95% of the time, but I'm not into party politics. I'd be his target voter, but he pisses me off sooooo much! I'm thoroughly convinced that he thinks I'm a idiot, though he has never met me.
"Don't worry your pretty little head about it", I've been on the receiving end of that attitude for as long as I can remember.... At 53 now, my head is no longer as "pretty" as it used to be, but it still works too well to be talked down to and assumed I don't understand, or want to hear about, details. I live for details and number crunching (I'm female, imagine that!). I'm a geek in many ways

Unenrolled, liberal, geeks, for Hillary!
