Most Bernie supporters (and most other Americans for that matter) do not really understand the meaning of socialism or of capitalism.

Bernie knows socialism, but is confused about capitalism, having been sucked into the lie that globalism and capitalism are one-and-the-same.

This is totally false. Globalism is much closer to socialism than to capitalism. But shhhh!! Don’t tell Bernie!

In any event, many of Bernie’s supporters are anti-establishment and anti-globalist, without being doctrinaire socialists. Hurray. They will be more than welcome on the Trump train.

Socialism and Capitalism? That’s easy, Capitalism, become an entrepreneur invest and take risks like Trump then make tons of money. Socialism, work for the Government like Bill and Hillary and make tons of money by just being there and knowing the right people.

Socialism almost wiped out Bernie’s fellow Jews! What a DOPE he is.

Bernie knows socialism,

No, he doesn't. Bernie has always looked at socialism through rose-colored glasses, and has no idea what it really means.

Socialism can only be implemented through heavy authoritarianism. When there is no reward for hard work, very few people will work hard.

Socialism has failed EVERYWHERE it has been tried on a large scale. The only place it has survived for any amount of time is in places that have a large source of external income to feed the beast -- meaning the rest of the world pays for it.

And even then the redistribution is uneven: the politically connected get the most and best. Even now, there is a very small set of people in Venezuela that are living a life better than most of us.
