Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) has purchased a nearly $600,000 summer retreat on Vermont’s Champlain Islands, the Vermont newspaper Seven Days reported Monday.

“We’ve traveled up to the islands many times over the years — almost always on day trips,” Jane Sanders, the former White House contender's wife, said in a statement. "The entire family is very excited about it.”

“We’ve always been impressed with the North Hero community, eaten at the North Hero House and Shore Acres and have suggested them to friends who were looking for a beautiful place to stay or have dinner. St. Anne’s Shrine in Isle La Motte is my favorite church and it is nearby.” The Sanders’ new waterfront home has four bedrooms and 500 feet of Lake Champlain beachfront, Seven Days reported.

Not bad for a socialist who has never worked a real job in his life.

Socialists always get nice things for themselves, at everyone else’s expense.

Selling out to the Clintons has its benefits. I’m sure the BernieBots are overjoyed at this great news for Bernie.

It’s on the Clintons dime. $600,000 is the price of his endorsement of the Felon seeking the Presidency.

The Bern sold out.

Agree. My first thought was ‘ and how much did the Clintons pay for that house?’.

Socialists who care about the ‘little people’ have this much money?

My husband and I have been looking for a similar place...but we can’t afford THAT ;-)

I’m guessing he put down his 30 pieces of silver as a down-payment.

Bernie is a 1%’er now. I’m sure that he still has a pile of left over campaign cash that he is sitting on.
