Socialist Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) had the audacity this week to claim it's "beyond comprehension" that President Trump could run an "honest" election, after Trump announced plans to nationalize elections and take over voting operations in 15 states to ensure integrity.
The irony is rich coming from a man who became a millionaire while supposedly fighting for the "working class" in Congress. Sanders was caught on video laughing at CNN's Kaitlan Collins when she pressed Trump about his election reform comments, showing the typical leftist disdain for actual election security measures.
"The idea that Trump could oversee honest elections is laughable," Sanders reportedly said, apparently forgetting that it was his own Democratic Party that spent four years screaming about "Russian collusion" and trying to overturn the 2016 election results.
"Nonsense! Bernie Sanders became millionaire while he is in US Congress," one Twitter user fired back, pointing out the senator's own questionable enrichment during his time in office.
But Sanders' latest tantrum isn't just about elections. The Vermont socialist has been on a tear against Trump's administration, criticizing the President over arms sales to Israel and even attacking Trump's TikTok deal, alleging that Oracle's Larry Ellison now controls the algorithm.
Social media users aren't buying Sanders' act. "Did Bernie just accuse Trump of writing bad fanfic?" one user mocked after Sanders' bizarre claims about the TikTok arrangement.
Here's what's really happening: Trump wants to clean up our election systems by standardizing security measures across key swing states - something that should be common sense after the chaos of 2020. But Democrats like Sanders can't stand the thought of losing their opportunities for "creative" vote counting.
The same party that pushed mail-in ballots, fought voter ID requirements, and resisted signature verification now has the nerve to lecture Trump about election integrity? That's what's truly "beyond comprehension."
Patriots know the truth: the only people afraid of honest elections are those who benefit from dishonest ones. And Bernie's panicked reaction tells us everything we need to know about whose side he's really on.
