Bernie Sanders went on Fox News to do a town hall Monday night. And on top on what you would expect from the Vermont socialist, he said some things that, surprisingly (or maybe not) would go over well in the White House.
During one of her HBO promo tours, Hillary Clinton recently said this about Sanders, “He did not work until he was like 41 and then he got elected to something. It was all just baloney and I feel so bad that people got sucked into it.”
“Like”? Has she adopted Valspeak in her obvious dotage? Also, if it was “all just baloney” and Hillary and Bill were Democrat national players during that period, did they campaign against him?
Uh, no.

Sanders responded at the town hall: “Unlike Secretary Clinton, I don’t want to relive 2016. We’re in 2020 now.”
Bingo. Translation: You got me in Philadelphia then. Try it again, wretch. Just try it.
When asked if he was likable (Hillary assures he is not): “But, what I would say on a good day, is my wife likes me,” Sanders said to solid applause. “But also, if you guys look at some of the polling they do for United States senators, in most cases I turn out to be the most popular senator in the country.”
Key word there being “some.”
If the poll question is worded, “Who is the most likable senator who wants to bring on an economic depression and who would generally destroy America?” then no doubt he wins hands down.

He’s probably referring to national polls where the person who wins gets about a 20% likability rating. In that kind of poll, it is very possible he was up against bright shining lights of sunshine and charisma like Liz Warren and Tom Steyer.
But at least he’s a candidate for the Democratic nomination for president who can put together a sentence without endorsing Donald Trump, picking a fight with an autoworker, or advocating the ban of “AR-14s.”
That would be the other guy.

Now there's a winning campaign strategy--openly associate yourself with the Muslim authors of 9/11, who want to take over and Islamify the country.
muslim leaders will approve of anything that would destroy the usa.

WOW Bernie, being call a bad dude by the worlds #1 tramp is a slam. If I had a choice for POTUS between Killery Clinton and Communist Bernie, guess I would have to go for Daffy Duck so I could feel safe.

What amazes me is the Sanders is the Senator from Vermont, the "whitest" state in the US and is on the chart as one of the more dependent on federal spending? Doesn;t that turn racist ideology of the left upside down? With Bernie always ranting about racism especially if he is being endorsed by radical Muslims and others who do not appear to be so radical? The Washington Free Beacon, "Hassan al-Qazwini, head of the Islamic Institute of America, spoke alongside other Muslim leaders at Sanders's rally in Dearborn, Mich., ahead of the state's Tuesday primary. In 2015, al-Qazwini said there was a "connection between ISIS and Israel" in a sermon posted by the institute to YouTube." And he refuses to condemn Farrakhan. He is a liberal Socialist who claims as one of his greatest allies Islam. It must make marginal religious believers atheists and agnostics, hopeful? His ideology has to dove tail with his absurd and doomed to fail notions of economics, ecology, racism and social justice. Mistaking or ignoring the failures of modern ethical incontinence abhorring morality based justice and existing in an abstract dream world who's anthem is "I'd like to teach the world to sing" and anyone off key will be sent to a Gulag to learn.,
All I can say is that in this time of crisis, I thank God every day that Donald Trump is the stead hand at the wheel, instead of that vicious harridan. The thought is too horrible to even consider.
...let them eat each other alive...
