Publishing tax return info is technically illegal, so maybe they are getting last minute legal advice? Maddox is also preternaturally boring though, so who knows?

Maddow is usually pretty decent. This is bad.

She keeps giving us reasons why we want to see the returns when she could just shown the damn return. After the break...

Not sure what everyone expected. This is literally how she opens every show. About 15-20 minutes of buildup/ground laying for whatever story she's talking about for the night.

How am I only hearing now about him selling a mansion to a Russian oligarch for double its value and the Russian never moved into it and then later tore it down? That is shadier than whatever could possibly be in his tax returns imo

This is so terrible that I'm waiting for her to say she's taking her talents to south beach.

They know if they can't swing it in Washington then they just beg and plead for more money for the Rust Belt and the South and let the GOP governors there handle the dirty work. Time honored tradition.

Unless this is the beginning of a steady trickle, this will backfire bigly in the court of public opinion.
