SOCIALISM USA! Bernie Claims USA ‘Owned’ and ‘Controlled’ by a Handful of ‘Billionaires’

posted by Hannity Staff - 12.13.18

Vermont Senator and likely 2020 presidential candidate Bernie Sanders slammed the United States capitalist system this week; baselessly claiming the country was “owned” by a small group of “billionaires.”

Sanders was speaking with The Real News Network in recent days when he unloaded on the current economic system; saying “incredible greed” is having a “negative impact on the fabric of our entire country.”

“We live in a nation owned and controlled by a small number of multi-billionaires whose greed, incredible greed, insatiable greed, is having an unbelievably negative impact on the fabric of our entire country,” said the self-described Democratic-Socialist.

“When we deal with climate change, when we deal with the economy, when we deal with housing, when we deal with criminal justice or immigration issues, we have got to deal with those in a holistic way, and understand why all of that is happening. Not see them as silo-ized separate issues,” Sanders added.

posted by Hannity Staff - 10.30.18

Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders raised eyebrows throughout Democratic circles this week; saying the “simple truth” is that he hasn’t “made the decision” on whether he plans to take on President Trump in the 2020 race for the White House.

Sanders was speaking at a candidates forum when he was asked if he was prepared to “pledge” to serve a six-year term should he be re-elected to the United States Senate.

“Right now, my focus is on the year 2018, but if you’re asking me to make an absolute pledge as to whether I’ll be running for president or not, I’m not going to make that pledge,” Sanders said. “The simple truth is I have not made that decision. But I’m not going to sit here and tell you that I may not run. I may. But on the other hand, I may not.”

Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders raised eyebrows throughout the nation’s capital Wednesday, thanking DC liberals for transforming “radical” and “extremist ideas” into “mainstream American ideas.”

Sanders was speaking at the ‘We the People’ summit in Washington, DC when he praised those in attendance for helping to advance his liberal message, saying his supporters have brought those “fringe ideas” to the masses.

“Many of the ideas that we talked about were thought to be fringe ideas, radical ideas, extremist ideas,” said the Vermont Senator. “Well, you know what? Because of your efforts, those ideas are mainstream American ideas.”

“I want to thank all of the groups here, because whether you know it or not, you have helped transform this country in so many ways,” he added.
