Well, apparently you're not going to, so the comment isn't very useful, is it?
Oh are one of those types that also shits on Bernie for owning three homes, even though one is a modest D.C. two bedroom, their family home on a very regular, average suburban road, probably 2,000 square feet, and the third a small lakeside cabin his wife inherited from her father, and where he hangs out with his like 15 grandkids?
Dude had to write like five best selling books and be in the Senate for 100 years before he made $1,000,000 dollars, even though insider trading is legal for members of Congress.
Omg, he formed an LLC to publish his books and pay a personal assistant. What a controversy! /s
Trying to portray the one honest Senator in D.C. as a hypocrite, you'd have be to a real know-nothing.
And that's not even mentioning that he's not a supreme court justice!
Just the Jews eh?
Oh please, now you're going back to the card Thomas played when Anita Hill told the truth about him. Demanding we give someone a pass on douchebaggery and corruption because God forbid we hold a black man accountable is racist. Not as racist as the killing of George Floyd, or the innumerable events that comprise systemic racism, but letting Justice Thomas corrupt the Court doesn't do one thing to ameliorate any of that. Not that he cares. He'd throw Rosa Parks under the bus in a heartbeat.
I bet you do when police are beating them.
Why single out Bernie Sanders then? Aren't there a million people that have access to even more "luxurious" things that a majority can't afford?
What's so special about him?
No shit
Have you written a bestseller yet?
Are you claiming that having any money at all is corruption?
Imagine being such a fucking idiot that you think people are upset at Clarence Thomas because he made money.
