Commie Valentine

The pivotal Nevada Caucus will be held on February 22nd and the Culinary Union is up in arms over Bernie Sanders’ Medicare For All single-payer, government-run health insurance scheme.

“We have fought for 85 years to protect our health care. Why would we let politicians take it away? A history of blood, sweat, and tears secured our healthcare, not politicians’ promises. We fought for our health care,” declares a flyer aggressively distributed throughout the state in advance of the caucus.

The new presumptive front-runner was slammed by the Las Vegas Sun newspaper which endorsed Biden and Klobuchar saying of the commie who combs his hair with a balloon, “Sanders is the only clear non-starter. It’s impossible not to regard the Vermont senator in a Trump-like mold—he seldom has shown an ability to build consensus and threatens to use executive orders extensively, just like Trump. It’s also doubtful he could assemble a highly qualified Cabinet, meaning he’d essentially be the left-wing version of Trump: isolated, angry, unable to work with others and showing too little respect for dissenting opinions. A Sanders candidacy simply guarantees a Trump second term.”

The communist in sheep’s socialist clothing has spent his entire career explaining away the terrifying tyranny of massively increasing the power of the state over the individual.  He is on the record admiring the economic “achievements” of Castro’s Cuba, Nicaragua’s Sandinistas and the Soviet Union right up to the fall of the Berlin Wall.

He’s never met a communist regime he didn’t admire.  The failure of the socialist ideology of Venezuela has forced Sanders to distance himself from his former position of support for Cuba, Nicaragua and the USSR to the Nordic countries of Denmark, Finland and Sweden all while misleading his cultish followers about the political and economic realities on the ground.

In 1981, shortly after he was elected Mayor of Burlington, VT he told a room full of charity workers, “I don’t believe in charities,” because only the government should provide social services to the needy.

In 1988, three years before it collapsed, Sanders visited the Soviet Union.  A reporter for POLITICO watched 3½ hours of video from his honeymoon to the USSR that had been unseen by the public for three decades.  The hours of footage include a scene of Sanders sitting with his delegation at a table under a portrait of Vladimir Lenin. Sanders can also be heard extolling the virtues of Soviet life and culture, even as he acknowledges some of their shortcomings. There are flashes of humor, too, such as his host warning the American guests not to cross the KGB, or else.

Sanders is seen living it up with the Soviets. There are, naturally, shrines to Lenin everywhere and, as the reporter notes, “There’s plenty of material that Democratic voters might worry the Republican Party could spin into a 30-second negative ad.”

One video in particular begins with Comrade Bernie saying, “You know, it’s funny how some American journalists talk about how bad a country is because people are lining up for food.  That’s a good thing.  In other countries people don’t line up for food.  The rich get the food and the poor starve to death.”

It has never made sense to me that a tiny group of people should have incredible wealth and power in America while most people have none. That is what we are going to change.

In 1980 and 1984, Sanders campaigned for Socialist Workers Party presidential candidates Andrew Pulley and Mel Mason. Their presidential platforms included promises to dismantle the entire U.S. military and nationalize most industries.  Sanders was later investigated by the FBI for his ties to the Marxist group although charges were never brought.

On Monday, the Washington Post reported that in 1983, Soviet Embassy First Secretary Vadim Kuznetsov congratulated Sanders in a letter for his reelection as Mayor of Burlington. Kuznetsov, a leader of the Soviet's spy outfit, had just attended a conference in Sanders's city a few days earlier.

And if we needed another piece of the puzzle to explain the panic of the DNC, Lloyd Blankfein who was Chairman and CEO of Goldman Sachs from 2006 until 2018 and a huge contributor to the DNC and endorsed Granny Clinton in 2016 tweeted:

If Dems go on to nominate Sanders, the Russians will have to reconsider who to work for to best screw up the US. Sanders is just as polarizing as Trump AND he’ll ruin our economy and doesn’t care about our military. If I’m Russian, I go with Sanders this time around.

UPDATE:  I found this video where Russian pranksters Vovan and Lexus communicate with Comrade Bernie as Saint Greta Thunberg the climate brat and her father Svante.
