CNN commentator Van Jones said Tuesday night was a “good night” for President Donald Trump after the release of his 2005 tax returns revealed nothing politically damaging.
Van Jones, who previously worked in the Obama administration, joined host Anderson Cooper to discuss the disappointment of many behind the release of Trump’s 2005 tax returns.
MSNBC host Rachel Maddow had tweeted earlier that she obtained Trump’s tax returns without providing any more detail, causing a media stir. She clarified less than an hour later that she only had part of the president’s returns from 2005, causing many journalists and social media users to criticize her for overhyping the situation. The White House soon preemptively released Trump’s 2005 taxes ahead of Maddow, showing that the president earned $153 million and paid $36.5 million in income taxes that year.
