To say the Democratic Party has taken a hard-left turn toward Socialism would be nothing short of an understatement. Tax the rich, open the borders and throw unearned money at anyone who wants it. Those are just some of the completely unsustainable ideas of “Crazy” Bernie Sanders.
But the other side of Crazy Bernie most Americans don’t know is that the Vermont senator pulls down more than $1 million per year and has assets of close to $2 million. Many may remember that his wife, Jane, was reportedly under investigation for bank loan fraud.
In this Reason video hosted by John Stossel, the hypocrisy of Sen. Sanders goes under the microscope and he has built a lucrative revenue stream while advocating socialism for all. And if Crazy Bernie’s personal wealth seems to be at odds with his economic equality for all political speeches, consider that the left-wing zealot is also ramping up a massively profitable online presence.
That’s right, those Bernie rants about greedy Republicans only caring about profits are click bait for Sanders and his comfortable lifestyle.
As John Stossel so aptly points out, Crazy Bernie is actually another YouTuber cashing in on grossly misleading statements. Many of Sanders’ click bait would be considered “fake news” because he edits clips that are likely to go viral, but are taken out of context. Some might call the clips outright lies.
