Bernie Sanders Buys $600,000 Summer House

According to Seven Days, a news publication in Vermont, the Democratic Socialist from Vermont shelled out 600 grand for a lake house.

The Burlington resident last week plopped down nearly $600,000 on a camp in North Hero. Sanders’ new waterfront crib has four bedrooms and 500 feet of Lake Champlain beachfront on the east side of the island.

Word on the street his wife Jane is still hard at work on those taxes.

Probably the money that Hildebeast gave him to drop out of the race.

With threads like this, it's clear as day the Trump train has truly derailed. Sorry your man is down Spike, keep your chin up dude.

Readin' my mind

 

[IndySteel]

The Berntard is the epitome of a sellout. The socialist idiots who supported him should be livid.

I wonder if he got a sweetheart deal on his house like Bammy did on his in Chicago. Funny how these things happen.

yeah -

Comrade gets the money for his dacha in the woods by walking on the backs of the poor.

Libs are so gullible, suckers!

He has never held any paying job other than elected official.

You think politicians whose sole job is running for office should be able to afford a $600,000 BEACH HOUSE?!?!?!?

Selling out to the Clintons has its benefits

North Hero is a great place. I love Lake Champlain. Bernie, if you see this, when can I stop by for a weekend?

 

[DBS1970]

I guess he paid the taxes on his campaign money and kept the donations given to him by millenials whom were promised free stuff by Crazy-B.

 

[Tibs]

Never seen a collection of individuals so disinterested in facts and the truth than here at the SN political forum.

Jane told Seven Days that they had recently sold a house in Maine that had belonged to her family since the 1900s, and used the proceeds to purchase the new property, which is located in North Hero (population 803, as of the 2010 census).

Sanders, an outspoken advocate for the working class who spent his 2016 presidential primary campaign railing against income inequality, remains one of the poorer members of Congress, and his net worth is among the lowest in the Senate.

I wonder if the Bern will leave government service dirt poor just like the Clintons did? Sounds like he is off to a good start.

 

[Stryker]

I wonder if it was GOP money. He would have been a tougher beat than Hillary. Everyone wins!

So Bernie is poor? Man, I hope I am so poor one day that I can afford a $600,000 lake front house. I hate being rich and stuff.

It's legal to keep excess campaign donations as long as you pay income tax on it.

i'd be interested to see if he actually did

He got the nomination, Tibs.

Your boy Bernie got ****** in the *** by Hillary and the Democrats.

You know, the people you now support.

So the dude's first job was as a mayor, and he has been sucking off the public tit as an elected official his entire working life. His actual current net worth is better than $500,000 and his actual worth, based on the generous government retirement benefits he will get, is more than $1 million and closer to $2 million.

Hmmm ... he does not produce ****, does not pay for anybody or anything (that money comes from the taxpayers), and he is worth more a million bucks.

But you have no problem with that.

Hey, I have no problem with people earning money and spending it as they see fit.

I have a gigantic problem with politicians taking MY money, and making themselves very rich in the process.

Same here I sure hope I am that poor one day. I just dont know how he goes on with life scraping by like that.
Although Hillary said she was broke after Bills term too. I hope they both get their food stamps and cash assistance.

On a serious note if you buy a 600k home no matter where the money comes from you still have to pay taxes and upkeep. If you can do that you are in no way shape or form being close to poor.

Like continuing to live on this side of the grass?

 

[Superman]

well, what benefit does it serve to off Bernie? he's already voting (D). not much to gain by assisting him in changing his voting stance if he were voting for anything else.

 

[ZonaBurgh]

Shouldn't all of the profits from the "inherited" home in Maine been turned over to the Federal government, like a good socialist would?

 

[Stryker]

You guys realize that $600k is mega inexpensive for a rich person's summer home.

This is Crazy-B's third $500,000 plus home though. Keep in mind he makes $174,000 a year. That is well above the national average salary but it ain't the kind of juice that allows you to have 3 half million dollar houses.
