As far as politicians go, this is one of the more honest ones (I know I’m going to catch hell for that, certainly all politicians are dirty to some degree). His net worth is less than any of them, and he is honest enough to tell everyone he is a socialist. Maybe he did it but he didn’t make millions on cattle futures, he didn’t get millions from the Chinese for his senate bid, he didn’t enter the White House worth $87K and leave worth over $17 million.
No, he just managed to buy three homes including prime lakefront property. You seem to be arguing that he doesn’t deserve punishment because he didn’t enrich himself as much as the Clintons. Sorry, that doesn’t wash. He and his wife are crooked as the day is long and deserve prison time. It doesn’t matter if he stole $1 million or $20 million. He’s a filthy crooked pol and, even worse, the biggest hypocrite in Washington.
He’s like the Soviet nomenklatura — professing undying devotion to communism while enriching themselves on the backs of the proletariat to buy their dachas. Is it any wonder they bought their own dacha on the lake? I guess the plane ride to the Black Sea was too long for them.
LOCK THEM UP!!
