Democratic presidential contender Bernie Sanders announced he will release 10 years of his tax returns and revealed he is a millionaire thanks to his best-selling book 'Our Revolution.'
'I wrote a best-selling book,' he told The New York Times. 'If you write a best-selling book, you can be a millionaire, too.'
Sanders said he would release his returns by Tax Day on Monday and said he hoped President Donald Trump would do the same.
'On the day in the very immediate future, certainly before April 15, we release ours, I hope that Donald Trump will do exactly the same. We are going to release 10 years of our tax returns, and we hope that on that day Donald Trump will do the same,' he told The Times.

Full Title of Article:
“Bernie Sanders admits he is a MILLIONAIRE as he prepares to release ten years of tax returns and says: ‘If you write a best-selling book, you can be a millionaire too!’”
Typical socialist. They want to redistribute YOUR money, not THEIR money.
It means nothing and I don’t care
Bernie’s income tax return isn’t going to show us how he suddenly could afford a third home, a vacation home on Lake Champlain, right after agreeing to support Hillary at the 2016 Democratic convention.
I don’t really care, and owning three houses and having been in politics as long as he has it’s hardly surprising, but how would anyone know his net worth from a tax return? Even if a person reported a 7-figure income, how would you know what their expenses were, and what their net income was, not to mention savings and other equities and liabilities?
All I remember learning from politicians tax returns is what cheapskates Democrats are when it comes to charitable contributions.
Good socialists have amassed considerable wealth? Who knew?
A “best selling book” by a politician is the preferred way to bribe them. Buy a bunch of copies of their book and let them know what you’re going to do.
Best selling book? If he chooses to release his tax returns, that’s his choice. There is NO requirement to do so. And what would it prove? That he’s remains a lying SOS?
He make this jack in his mother’s basement?
According to Obama, "you didn't build that!"
Where's our fair share?
Cover story for Hillary bribes.
This guy really needs to visit harry Reid and use his exercise equipment.
I guess hat makes Bernie a Jim Wrighter.
So a Socialist is taking advantage of and getting rich by a Capitalist system to push Socialism for others.
Got it.
Not bad for a guy who never earned a paycheck until the age of 40.
Who was the 1980s Democrat who "wrote" a book that was just a compilation of his floor speeches, and sold them by the case to wealthy donors, which became a way to launder bribe money?
Google says it was former Speaker Jim Wright.
Socialism pays well - for some.
“From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.”
Some doe not have much ability, but it turns out, they NEED a lot.
Funny how that works. Oh, that’s right, it doesn’t, after running out of other people’s money.
‘If you write a best-selling book, you can be a millionaire too!’”
AOC immediately went to her keyboard.
There are a lot of millionaires. He’s a multi-millionaire.
