Sanders Asks How Many Yachts Billionaires Need, Twitter Asks How Many Houses He Needs

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.) asked Twitter on Friday how many yachts and cars billionaires need to be satisfied, writing that they "can't have it all."

The former presidential candidate is a self-declared socialist who frequently criticizes millionaires and billionaires. He even abhors the idea that Americans can choose 23 types of deodorant when there are hungry children in the country.

Sanders' leftist beliefs go back to when he was young. In 1971, Sanders was asked to leave a hippie commune because he talked about politics and the glories of socialism all day instead of working. When he married in 1988, Sanders took his wife to the Soviet Union for their honeymoon.

It should not be surprising, therefore, that Sanders tweeted out his disdain for successful Americans having the ability to spend their money how they want.

How many yachts do billionaires need? How many cars do they need? Give us a break. You can't have it all.

— Bernie Sanders (@BernieSanders) April 21, 2017

Bernie should tell us how many real jobs he’s had in his life. Being a US Senator does not count as a job. And in Bernie’s case, it really doesn’t count as a job. Bernie’s never had a real job. He’s a worn out hippie that’s never created anything but trouble. Don’t worry about the yachts Bernie. Real working folks can have as many as they can pay for.

It’s none of your business, Bernie. We are free people.

And the government doesn’t need anymore of our money.

Get your commie ass out of our free country.

Bernie and the missus don’t need huge tracts of land
She lied to get loans in the name of Burlington College
So the college bought huge tracts of land on lake Champlain
Which of course the Sanders ‘ could enjoy using since she was an employee
Of corse the college couldn’t pay back the loans so they went bankrupt

Jane Jane Jane
Tsk tsk

Ha! My first car was a 1963 Rambler Classic I bought in 1970 for $315. I’ve owned a total of 32 cars since then.

Sanders the hypocrite not
criticizing Obama for yachting around with billionaires... probably because he approves the moonlighting at night with them

The thing that annoys me most about Bernie was his “white flight” away from Brooklyn to one of the whitest(and phoniest) states in the union.

If Democrat Bernie Sanders wins, Leno said, “he’ll be the first socialist elected president since 2008.”

Billionaires need enough yachts to host fabulous vacations of Barry and Moochelle.

That’s the wrong question Bernie. The right question is: “why aren’t more yachts manufactured in the United States”? Bernie can look in the mirror for the answer.

Tulsi Gabbard voted for him...thought he would be a fine president.

Tulsi Gabbard, the female Obama, the raving Progressive that the Easily Fooled are already lining up behind to make president, blinded by her uniform which they think makes her a patriot and a conservative but which really indicates just another politician exploiting the reputation of military service to enhance a political resume.

Oh, well. What can you expect from someone who still believes in the caste system and put her Hindu beliefs above the traditions of Western Civilization to such an extent that, when a news story covered a sect of Hindus that still practices cannibalism...CANNIBALISM...she didn’t attack that backwards barbarism but attacked the news agency for making Hinduism look bad.
