44. What does going "full Bernie" mean?

Sun Jun 22, 2025, 05:18 PM

Sunday

We already know we can't elect a woman of any color during our lifetime. Bernie himself is too old to run, and even if he were the right age don't believe middle America would allow it to happen.

It seems that anyone who really wants to be elected in the US has to keep their political agenda a total secret, and run as a celebrity a la Ronald Reagan. (Even Chump might be considered a celebrity of sorts.)
