He can be part of the 1% and not be affected, but other candidates can't accept legal donations because that corrupts?

(67,782 posts)...which is what I've been using since the early 2000s myself.
It appears that two of the entries on page six are not the original entries - they're a different font and larger than all the others.
Pages 9 and 10 are scans of printed pages, not the pdf pages as prepared by Turbotax.
Again, I have been using Turbotax for almost 20 years, when saving the final return Turbotax generates a pdf file of all the forms.

(67,782 posts)....many of the totals elsewhere in the return would be incorrect. That's the beauty of Turbotax, it doesn't the thinking for the user and asks at the end of each category "do you want to enter another business" (Schedule C is the business expense or loss schedule)

Hillary got 0 corporate contributions. That was a false smear.
As to getting paid for speeches -- it is an honest way to make a living. She was definitely not promoting a financial crisis by giving speeches. That was also an unfair attack.
It is interesting to see an Elizabeth Warren (who endorsed and campaigned for Hillary Clinton) supporter defending Bernie's unfair attacks that damaged Hillary Clinton.

If he hadn't used his attack machine to go after actual Democratic Party candidates because they accept LEGAL donations from LEGAL corporations and LEGAL PAC's for the repeatedly stated opinion that the money corrupts, all while being a 1%er... there wouldn't be an issue.
We don't care, and never did, that the Clintons had a lot of money, and a lot of financial world ties. We believed in their substance of character to do the right thing for the American people, but BS and his surrogates used that as a club attack.
