Bernie Sanders Donated 2.26% to Charity, Tax Returns Show

The most he gave to charity was $36,000 in 2017; the lowest was $1,900 in 2010.

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) released a decade’s worth of tax returns on Monday, detailing millions in income—2.26 percent of which he donated to charity.

The documents show that over the years, Sanders’ income ranged from $205,617 to $1.1 million, while his charitable giving ranged from less than 1 percent to just over 4 percent depending on the year.

Last year, Sanders’ total income was $566, 421 and he donated $18,950 or 3.35 percent. In 2017, his income was $1.1 million and he gave away $36,300 or 3.15 percent. The year before that he also made more than $1 million but donated $10,600 or less than 1 percent.

....

Pffff

Ok, the guy is a millionaire, running on socialist rhetoric, and all he gave to charities was micro crumbles basically

Pretty sure he did to not appear like a total scum when they came to him personally asking for money

>Based on IRS data, Sanders’ rate of giving was below the average for his income bracket in some years and or at or above in other years. Sanders had resisted releasing his tax returns during his last run for office, sparking speculation as to what would be in the records that could prove political problematic.

Below average lol What a fucking jew haha

....

>The top line number shows that the Senator is among the millionaire class that he often bemoans. But the charitable giving also presents its own set of political vulnerabilities, which Sanders’ team appeared to acknowledge in a statement on its website explaining that the tax returns do not include proceeds from one of his books, The Speech, “which are donated directly to charity.”

Ok I give him a pass, he made a book and money goes to charities, he isn't that bad
