    He's answered the same question multiple times every debate. At this point they're just reframing the same question and doing oppo research FOR Trump.

    Also Trump would call literally any candidate a socialist lol. I love dishonest actors in this discussion trying to pretend that Democrats can somehow outmaneuver Trump lying and calling people names.

    This puts Sanders in the middle class, maybe the lower echelons of the upper middle class. He's not rich.

    And so what? Unless he's saying he'll specifically exempt himself from taxes it's a complete non-point. He's never said people shouldn't be allowed to make money.

    God, surely we have a better way of electing candidates this game show atmosphere. They ask ridiculously complex questions, and the candidates get a few seconds to answer while 5 other people try to trip them up. This format is insanity. Other then getting in some cheap jabs and prepared punch lines, this tells us nothing about the candidates, their policies, and how they will govern.

    Even Beauty Pageant contestants at least get the dignity of using their few seconds uninterrupted.

    The middle class doesn't own three homes what are you on about

    Silence and intimidate terfs, not women.

    And transphobes deserve as such. Again, y'all really not helping the impression that Bernie's camp has been infiltrated by brocialists.

    I'd argue that he's still rich...from the perspective that most of America is poor.

    They all are "rich", from the context that none of them are blue-collar day-job workers living paycheck to paycheck out of an aging rental property owned by an out-of-town property investment agency.
    Human progress isn't measured by industry. It's measured by the value you place on a life.

    Just, be kind.

    Bernie brands himself as the socialist, he will get asked EVERY TIME because of it. You guys fail to realize the democratic party really does not want Bernie, he isn't really in their party and they made sure he did not win in 2016. Why are you defending someone not in your party trying to get your party's nomination?

    I don't care that the party doesn't want a candidate.

    Because it matters what the people want.

    Also shockingly I can defend more than 1 person when I see them being framed dishonestly by the media, who 100% have a vested interest in some candidates not succeeding.

    Because we will do whatever it takes to get the cancerous blob you put into the White House out. Even if that means voting for Bernie.

    See. Again proving the point.

    You think women who express concern about biological males in women's spaces deserve to be silenced and intimidated with death and rape threats. Misogynist.

    I'm really not sure why y'all are entertaining Wyrt's bullshit, this chick ain't running for president is she? So who fucking cares? Lets talk about how Pete is totally owning the "how many buzzwords can I include in a comment" race.

    And also how Pete has a goddamn obsession with tearing Bernie down. Jesus attack someone else for a change.
