Bernie Sanders is out of the Democratic Primary, he’s endorsed Joe Biden, and now the campaign of the presumptive nominee is hounding him to hand over his massive donor list that he used to rake in record-breaking sums from small-dollar contributions. The same thing happened back in 2016 with Hillary Clinton. He didn’t give it up then and there’s no reason for him to do so now.
