I Like Bernie Sanders

I hate his policies, since they are so much like the policies of Republicans. I like him for the same reason I like Trump: He says what he believes, no matter how bad what he believes is. He doesn’t calculate and obfuscate when he speaks. Case in point. Sanders wants the highest tax bracket to be over 50 percent. He doesn’t hide the fact that he wants to take money from “the rich” and give it to “the poor.” No one who openly says these things is lying. This makes Sanders (and Trump) different from every other lying Democratic and Republican presidential candidate, including the ones who have dropped out already. Although Republicans don’t want taxes to be as high as Sanders does, they have the same tax principles as Sanders.

N.B., Of course I am not voting for Sanders or Trump (I don’t vote at all). And of course I am not endorsing Sanders or Trump (I don’t endorse any candidates).
