Deleted: Bernie Sanders Tweeted that America Is Worse for the Poor Than 'Any Other Country'
MRC ^ | 1/19/17 | Andrew Mullins

Thought that the conclusion of the 2016 election would bring back a semblance of sanity from the left? Think again. Vermont's very own Senator and outspoken socialist just Tweeted, then deleted, this:

That's right. Bernie Sanders actually believes that U.S. treats poor and working-class citizens worse than any other country on earth. Does he really think that's because the American voters just won't buy into socialism?

Last I checked, in socialist Nicolas Maduro's Venezuela, it costs $150 to buy a carton of eggs. Is this really what Bernie wants? 

Note to Bernie Sanders: Claiming that America treats the poor worse than any other country is an insult to the plight of the suffering. Especially in countries like North Korea, Venezuela, or heck... maybe the 23 other countries, where a majority of the population lives beneath the poverty line.

That’s why our poor all have microwaves, flat screen TV’s, smart phones and expensive sneakers.

Bernie and I should go look around in Uruguay, if he wants to see how “poor people” are treated. At least most of the US “poor” have refrigeration and plumbing.

Yes, he probably believes that. And there may be some areas where the poor have more uncertainty than the rest of the world that may need to be shored up. But in general our poor are better off.

The “poor” in America live lifestyles which are the envy of half the world’s population.

Bernie should take a trip to Guatemala, where the poverty is way worse. Seriously, unemployed people in the U.S. are generally better off than subsistence farmers.

You want to see a gap between rich and poor?

Go to India, or Brazil, or China. Of course, most Americans don’t go to these places, so Sanders and his ilk can get away with such nonsense.

How can this be Bernie after 8 years of 0bama?

Oh, I know how, 0bama wasn’t the right socialist.

Hey Bernie! If that statement is true? Sell your new home, you know, the one the Demwits bought you and give the proceeds to the poor.

Maybe Bernie should call 0dunga since he’s been the president for the past 8 years.
