Bernie Sanders is to the left what Donald Trump is to the right.

Except his principles are economic. Trump's are, well, no one really knows

Read the thread and you'll understand. Because crazy or not, clown or not, buffoon or not, many of us would rather listen to his straight talk than the pre-calculated, pre-polled, sterilized talking points of the other guys. I'm only old enough to have followed 3, maybe 4, presidential races, and I am sick, sick, sick and tired of the political stupidity.

You are right about everything except his straight talk. It is to feed his ego and that is why he says these things.

What? His principles are socialist. What does that even mean "they're economic"? I'd think trump, a billionaire, probably knows how to put this country back on track economically a lo better than some old socialist from Brooklyn (who made aliyah to Vermont, land of the hippies).

The problem is we can't afford him to bankrupt this country a few times before he gets it back on track.

This country is already bankrupt. So try again.

Is it really straight talk? or is it what he specializes in-intentionally provocative talk

I would hope so after all the practice he has had.

Well if after all the practice he's had he's ended up where he is now then the federal government and socialist presidents like Obama have a lot to learn from him. In case you didn't realize, he has a SURPLUS of 13 billion in his bank accounts. We, as a country, have a DEFICIT of 17 trillion. Big difference there.

Does he really have this surplus? I always felt that the biggest difference between Trump and others was his ability to borrow money.

Even if he does, did he make it by cutting costs and waste or raising revenue? Or was by cronyism and getting properties for cheap using eminent domain (otherwise known as stealing properties).

If that is your yard stick then I am sure you would find Buffett and Gates as more qualified.

I just listened to his Vegas speech. It's so funny it's crazy. I can see why people get drawn to him.

Can we start using the "-gate" suffix with Trump?

Anyone see how he's responding to breastpump-gate?
