He's a f'ing idiot. The clown once got thrown out of a commune for doing nothing and distracting others while helping them do nothing too........

It’s been a busy few weeks for Bernie Sanders, traveling around America on his Fighting Oligarchy tour. The message is clear: billionaires are bad, the economy is rigged, and the people must be empowered. Crowds roar, fists raised in solidarity. The same speeches. The same outrage. The same thunderous applause. The same garbage.

While Sanders decries wealth inequality and corporate greed, he zigzags across the country in the ultimate symbol of elite privilege: a private jet. Not once. Not in an emergency. Just this past quarter, his campaign spent more than $220,000 on private air travel, an expense completely at odds with the populist, working-class image he’s spent decades cultivating.

And that’s just the start.

This is the man who once made a career out of attacking “millionaires and billionaires.” Then, when he became a millionaire, he quietly dropped one of those words. Now it’s just the billionaires who are the problem. His wealth, you see, is different. It’s justified. Sanders wrote a bestselling book, after all. However, if we’re being perfectly honest here, book sales alone don’t explain the numerous houses, private jet travel, and a campaign bank account that bleeds like a hedge fund.

The man who preaches frugality lives like the system’s biggest beneficiaries. If that feels hard to square, you’re not alone. As Michael Bloomberg once remarked: “The best-known socialist in the country is a millionaire with three houses.” Sanders didn’t deny it. That’s because he couldn’t. He simply muttered something about one of the homes being a summer camp on Lake Champlain. Apparently, in Bernie’s weird world, lakefront property doesn’t count if you don’t call it a mansion.
