Sanders (age 81) Is Thinking About Making You Feel the Bern in 2024
PJ Media ^ | 12/12/2022 | Robert Spencer

Old Joe Biden is 80 now, and even after the Democrats’ triumphant (albeit highly suspicious) showing in the midterms, some on the Left still believe that the foggy-minded old liar is well past his sell-by date. The putative president himself has not made any official announcement that he is running again, but last week, at a state dinner with the callow, wet-behind-the-ears 44-year-old French President Emmanuel Macron, Biden joined in a toast to a 2024 run. Nevertheless, the 2024 campaign is still a long way off, and if the alleged president is ultimately judged to be too old to continue pretending to be our nation’s chief executive, another prominent Democrat is strongly considering stepping in. Yes, I’m talking about Bernie Sanders.

Of course, Bernie is actually older than Joe, although the rumors that he was Socialist candidate Eugene V. Debs’ campaign manager in the 1920 presidential election are false. Sanders will be 83 when Election Month 2024 rolls around, but he has one clear advantage over Biden right away: while Joe gives us more or less daily indications of his advancing dementia, Sanders appears to be of completely sound mind. Imagine that! A Democrat candidate of sound mind! But of course, the fact that Sanders is apparently still all there upstairs is no indication that the thoughts he still has are worth anything.

Sanders adviser Faiz Shakir told CBS News that Bernie was seriously considering throwing his vintage Bogart-era fedora into the ring. “I assume that he would give it a hard look,” Shakir said, assuming that Sanders still has good enough eyesight to accomplish such a feat. “I don’t want to make the judgment for him. Obviously, it would be his choice to make. But I assume that he would want to reevaluate it.”

Shakir did acknowledge that the age issue is as much of a factor for Sanders as it is for Biden. He said that the superannuated Commie curmudgeon is “very aware that he’s older now and he’d have to make a real judgment about his own vigor and his stamina and his desire and hunger and passion to do this a third time. But if it were an open field? Yeah, I’m confident he would take another look at it and say, ‘Do I want to do this or not?'”

If 60 is the new 40 then 35 must be the new 15. However, if 80 is the new 60 then 50 must be the new 30, which is still 5 years younger than you’d need to be in order to be President of the United States!

This is good.

Let him run and win wide popular support from Gen-Z socialists only to lose to Democrat Superdelegates, leaving these young voters disillusioned and demoralized.

Time to break out the memes and graphics from way back in 2016 b/c when it comes to Bernie Sanders, nothing had changed.

He is still the same old hypocritical commie he's always been: Communism for YOU, consumerism and capitalism for ME.

Bernie’s three houses:

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8025835/Take-peak-best-known-millionaire-socialist-Bernie-Sanders-three-homes.html

Purchased in 2009 for $405,000, Sanders’ main home in Burlington, Vermont has four bedrooms.

Sanders’ one-bedroom apartment in Washington D.C.(Georgetown) is his most expensive residence and is estimated to be worth around $700,000

He most recently plopped down $575,000 in cash for a lakefront cabin in North Hero Island, Vermont in August of 2016

Everyone has $575,000 IN CASH to buy a house. Don’t YOU ??
