Wonder what the Bernie Lovers think about this?

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) has purchased a nearly $600,000 summer retreat on Vermont's Champlain Islands, the Vermont newspaper Seven Days reported Monday.

"We've traveled up to the islands many times over the years - almost always on day trips," Jane Sanders, the former White House contender's wife, said in a statement. "The entire family is very excited about it."

"We've always been impressed with the North Hero community, eaten at the North Hero House and Shore Acres and have suggested them to friends who were looking for a beautiful place to stay or have dinner. St. Anne's Shrine in Isle La Motte is my favorite church and it is nearby."

The Sanders' new waterfront home has four bedrooms and 500 feet of Lake Champlain beachfront, Seven Days reported.

The town of North Hero has fewer than 1,000 residents, according to the 2010 U.S. Census.

The Sanders family also owns a row house on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., and a house in Burlington, Vt..

The residence in Burlington is currently valued at $321,900, according to city property records.

He's going to give that house to Prowler after he fills the cabinets with Cheetos.

You misspelled Hillary Clinton's anonymous donation to get him to drop out and champion her as the next President...it was either that route or a early death, not that hard to choose, imo.

Have you looked at Bernie lately? More like a timely death.

Well. At least now he gets to die in bed..in a new house.

So, he pre-bought that Audi R8 with the money he knew was coming from Hillary? That's chancy.

Btw...not that y'all are interested in the truth or what not, but Bernie Sanders and his wife bought the small lake house with the money that they got from selling their parent's house.

Oh, I thought it was from all the money Hillary gave him to drop out.

If he paid $600G for that, he's even dumber than he ~~looks~~ ~~appears~~ ~~sounds~~ we thought he is.

CCTAU · « **Reply #15 on:** August 16, 2016, 10:29:17 PM »

I believe the death tax should have taken most of that house money!

Yeah but that ain't fair. He should have to pay a 90% estate tax to help those out who don't have that kind of money. Don't you think?

Who fucking cares what the house looks like.

The fact is he spent $600k on a second home when the people he "helps" can't afford a first home worth half that.

And then, they fucking defend the guy.

You shouldn't have homes worth $1M, I don't care what they look like, when you preach "fair share", and socialism to stay in power.

People are fucking stupid.

3rd home.

~~Communism~~ Democratic socialism is great when you're at the top of the free stuff gravy chain and the "fair share / all is equal" rules don't apply to you.
