Sucker born every minute with this fraudulent socialist. The DNC will offer him another house or some other goodie to move aside and he’ll fold up like a cheap suit.

Joe is creepy for sure, but this whole thing is going a direction where it will be impossible for a man (other than a gay one) to be elected to national office. Clarence Thomas was a wake up call, so was Kavenaugh… now with Biden, it is apparent these are political knee capping.

given that Bernie is such a died-in-the-wool socialist who’s such a big opponent of income inequality and such a big promoter of income redistribution, I’m he’ll share his campaign bounty with campaigns who are not as financially well off as his ...

Bernie has a massive following. My kids love trump, but their friends are huge Bernie Bros. It’s frightening how stupid they are with this Marxist creep. Even some of their college friends who voted for Trump say they would have voted for Bernie if he had been the Dem nominee.

I wonder who are the idiots who still donate to this old Commie bastard as if he didn’t sell them out last time.
Bernie was decoy last time for Hillary not to look too far left in comparison.
With the recent influx of radical Marxists into the Democrat Party Bernie would look like a moderate or even centrist by 2020.

Bernie is this cycle’s McGovern.
If he’s nominated, it could be a landslide for Trump.

Biden will be torn to shreds. Bernie is looking for a payoff, maybe selling his mailing list to Beto.

Who knew commies had so much money!? Sounds like some comrades need to do more redistribution of wealth. You know, for the good of the people.
