Of course, he was getting a little side-boob grope action too, but that's just Creeply Uncle Joe being - well - creepy.

Nevermind what they were discussing, but this hug had people cringing into next Tuesday. This is the most fake and awkward hug of all time. It wasn't even a full hug! I guess socialists hate each other too!
I didn’t think it was so bad. Sorta pro-forma, but not nearly as bad as a Joe Biden hug.
Agreed. That video of Biden hugging Hillary is the most cringe-worthy hug I’ve ever seen. He WON’T let go and it’s HER. I still shudder just thinking of it.
It appears to me she’s physically repelled by him and he’s aware enough to know it.
Yes, that was creepy!
Bernie probably hasn’t bathed since the 60’s
You mean that one where Joe was gripping her on the Tarmac? That truly was one of the most gross things I’ve ever seen. He just wouldn’t let her go, what a sicko. LOLOL!!!
It was a perfunctory kind of embrace.
Whoever was filming probably showed them a sign that said ‘Hug-NOW.”
That was less of an ‘Eye Roll’ than when GWB quietly stepped up to a seated Angela Merkel and decided to give her a back rub. She looked confused, annoyed and repelled.
I would not read too much into this. Of course there’s the huge age difference - so there’s that. But it’s mainly awkward due to the fact they were both sitting down. Not exactly easy to hug when you are sitting down. A fist bump would have been better in that setting.
Did Bernie hair-sniff her?
If not, why not?
Ever try and hug someone sitting in a chair next to you.... ?
There is no way not to come off weird looking.....
This is a nothing burger....tells me their staff are morons not to at least stage it better...
Of course, he was getting a little side-boob grope action too, but that's just Creeply Uncle Joe being - well - creepy.
LOL!!
Is that genuine?
Where’s the picture?
Is that genuine?

CNN? No, of course not. But the picture? Actually happened?
Yep.
"I bet Bill didnt get you this hot."
In the photo, he appears to be holding her up.
Embarrassingly awkward and stiff...but at least not super creepy like a Joe Biden hug.
Besides socialism (gag)....Bernie and AOC have a lot in common.
AOC’s COS used to be Bernie’s....wait for it.....”Director of Organizing Technology.”
AND THIS—Saikat Chakrabarti, is a proven tech expert.
(A) He co-founded a web design tool,
(B) He built up the product team at the payment processor “Stripe”.........
(C) He then came to the Sanders campaign after (cough) growing disillusioned with the tech world.
Saikat Chakrabarti was Bernie’s Director of Organizing Technology. Even old man Bernie knew enough to hire a tech expert.
So, I guess (smirk) Chakrabarti’s tech skills musta come in mighty handy when donations to Bernie were
wire-transferred to the DNC and ended up in 2016 candidate Hillary’s account.
Debbie W/S headed the DNC at the time and was ousted b/c of her bias for Hillary.
Course, none of us heard about any of this, but.....
<><> Chakrabarti-the-tech-whiz did find out about the DNC theft, didnt he?
<><> Chakrabarti did speak to D/W/S about it, or to Debbie’s tech expert, Imran Awan, didnt he?
<><> Chakrabarti did tell Bernie he was fleeced, didnt he?
<><> Chakrabarti WAS working for Bernie, wasnt he?
Now the stunning details about that FEC complaint:
The FEC complaint asserts that AOC’s COS, Saikat Chakrabarti, early on established two PACs that raised big bucks for AOC’s campaign:
<><> the “Brand New Congress PAC,” and,
<><> the “Justice Democrats PAC.”
After mucho money was raised, Chakrabarti systematically transferred $885,000+ in PAC contributions to his private companies with similar names:
<><> the “Brand New Campaign LLC,” and,
<><> the “ Brand New Congress LLC.”
Saikat Chakrabarti’s private companies, unlike PACs, are exempt from reporting all of their significant expenditures.
NOTE WELL: it’s a much-used criminal act to enrich oneself, to open bank accounts using similarly named
entities to siphon off money, to hide it from partners, associates, investors etc.
SIPHONINGS A CINCH It’s easy to siphon off money for oneself by putting checks into the new accounts with similar names, depositing checks that were made out to
the original entity. Even your bank advises that if a check-writer “mis-spelled” your name, to just endorse the check with the correct name.
AND PRESTO: a check made out to Brand New Congress PAC, is deposited in the Brand New Congress LLC account.
ANALYSIS -— Chakrabarti’s companies appear to have been set up for the sole purpose of obscuring how AOC’s donations were used. The arrangement skirted reporting requirements and may have violated the $5,000 limit on contributions, according to the FEC complaint filed by the National Legal and Policy Center, a government watchdog group.
Campaign finance attorneys described the arrangement as “really weird” and an indication “there’s something amiss.” They said there was no way of telling where the political donations went — meaning (A) the donations could have been pocketed, or, (B) used by the LLC’s to pay for off-the-books campaign operations.-—SNIP-—SOURCED FROM FR.
Maybe we should ask millionaire landowner Socialist Bernie (smirk)?
