Releasing tax returns

This would be true for a normal candidate, 
 but Donald Trump 
is not a normal can-didate. Or a normal person. Meaning one who stays within accept-ed societal norms of American politics.And I hope that the bulk of the American people choose for social norms, not this aberration. Democrats, centrists, even Republicans alike are coalescing around Hilary Clinton as the right - the only - candidate for us today. It is also clear that Bernie Sanders is right - we need a political revolution and I pray that the next generation of politicians coming up will solidify and clarify that.

Just to be clear:

 Just to be clear:  

These are some of things you don’t joke about if you are running for President of the United States:

Having a foreign power - especially an hostile foreign power - hack into our computers.

Assassinating - even by insinuation - an opponent. 

Jailing your political opponent. In our system of government, it goes: charge, indict,  judge, convict FIRST.

And at no time do you undermine the foundation of our democracy which rests on the fairness of our elections and the impartiality of our judiciary.
