Bernie to get a book deal instead of a beach house this time
The People's Cube ^ | Red Square

Posted on 04/18/2020 10:04:43 PM PDT by NorseViking

Presidential candidate Bernie Sanders, who is threatening to defeat Joe Biden in the 2020 Democratic primary, has been offered an exorbitant advance in a book deal that puts to shame the meager $575,000 vacation home he had bought after conceding to Hillary Clinton in 2016, sources say.

Tentatively titled Das Krapital, the book is going to be a compilation of inspiring speeches that candidate Sanders had delivered in 2016 when he ran against Clinton, and then in 2020 while running against Biden.

Senator Sanders's speeches have been, in turn, inspired by quotes from the classics of Marxism-Leninism that had shaped the 78-year-old socialist's life and career. Hundreds of his favorite quotes will be included and the publisher said Bernie Sanders will use these to educate the masses on how to grind the bourgeoisie between the millstones of taxation and inflation, how to entice the capitalists to sell the rope on which they will be hung, and why we need a socialist revolution that would outlaw private property.

But most importantly, the book's main message will teach about the importance of never quitting while pursuing an idealistic goal, and never compromising with the class enemy.

"I'm sick and tired of hearing that this book deal and the summer house are some sort of bribes for me to stand down and endorse weaker establishment candidates," Sanders told reporters. "The truth is, these are pure coincidences. Think about it: I wouldn't have been able to enjoy my waterfront dacha if I hadn't quit and endorsed Hillary in 2016, would I? The same way, if I don't quit now and endorse Joe Biden, I won't be able to fulfill my obligation on a very generous book advance, will I?"

"Believe me, this book will be my fair contribution to the people's struggle for the

He also has a donor list compiled from two election cycles that is worth a lot more than all his properties and book deals combined.

Burnie’s “campaigns” have never been about winning...he gains by funneling millions in campaign cash to his family. A house, a car, or a book deal are just the “extras” he has allowed himself through positioning for the right opportunity.

In 2016, besides the lakehouse, Bernie’s wife and friends funneled 80-plus million dollars through various entities into all their pockets. So... How much this time around, so far? Hmmm mm?

I guess it’s satire, but it’s not very good. In fact, it’s rather lame.

Why yes, yes it is.
In fact, I began snickering at ‘Das Krapital’ and proceeded to full guffaws by the time I reached ‘the importance of never quitting.’
It’s funny how these Babylon Bee wanna-bees are springing up like mushrooms in a sh%thouse, don’t you agree?

The “man of the people” Comrade Bernie has already made millions on a book deal from 2016. It’s makes perfect sense that another deal would be in the works.

It’s not a question of “if”, it’s a question of “how much”.

Nope. The People's Cube has been around since 2005. The Babylon Bee was founded in 2016.

Bernie gets paid up front. The book is written, published, printed and will be at the top of the nytimes book list for several weeks, before a single copy is sold in digital or solid copy. It's official release will be after the November election, so it doesn't remind the democrat voters that half of them got screwed again by the DNC.
