When asked why he doesn't lead by example and pay the tax rates he's proposing, or to not take Trump's tax cuts, he literally scoffs at the idea and says that that's his money and he's earned it.
Oh man a socialist who doesn't lead by example? Color me fucking surprised.
Just like the environmentalists who won't support nuclear energy, I won't believe any socialist means what they say until they donate their income and their houses to the government first.
Why do journalists let politicians get away with these non answers? He was clearly deflecting but they just let him go on about Trump instead of pressing for an actual answer.
Wrong. Most of us would love to watch a reporter actually follow up on a leftist with questions and point out potential contradictions. Politely of course
Anderson Cooper actually did this in a town hall if you can believe it or not. Bernie simply refused to answer and deflected every time he was taken to task. He can't speak honestly.
This is my favorite clip of Bernie:

Really reveals him to be the shyster he is.

Or take over some means of production, roll up their sleeves, and actually do some fucking work for once.

Because they are Democrat activists, not journalists.

Seriously. Making a politician say something of substance would be wonderful to watch rather than watch them get their talking points in.

They would never go on a show like that is the real answer.
Wow, what a link.
When directly asked a question about his taxes his go to response is Donald Trump is bad.
What a shithead, lead by example you spineless politician.
That has to be my new favorite link about Bernie, the previous top spot was his legislation record.
https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/browse?sponsor=400357#enacted_ex=on
You know the one that shows he has only 7 bills to his name 3 of which are worthless renaming post offices or some holiday.
30 years of being a politician and that is what his record shows. How would I believe he is going to get anything done.
I guess Democratic resumes dont require any actual work history.
"Work?" What is this foreign concept? Intersectionality and diversity studies is the hardest any demonrat has ever worked.
He wouldn't be a Socialist if he had a work history.
I wonder how long before we see panhandlers with this on their signs?
"can I count on" is awful.. what a jabroni
You keep using that word.......and it's awesome!
His deflection is priceless. Typical liberal.
