NEW YORK, NY—Well, this is more than a little odd.
Every single attendee of Bernie Sanders’ town hall meeting on Fox News earlier this week has reported that their wallet has mysteriously gone missing.
“I know I had my wallet in my pocket, but after meeting Bernie Sanders, shaking his hand, and thanking him for everything he’s doing for the country, I noticed my wallet was missing,” said one woman from Brooklyn. “I noticed it on the way to the car. Really strange.”
She wasn’t the only one: every single attendee only later realized that their wallets were missing. Some women said their purses had apparently been rifled through, with the perpetrator taking every coin and dollar bill, as well as several breath mints and a comb.
Whoever did the stealing was crafty. The suspect left a note in each person’s pocket or purse saying “Thank you for your willingness to help your fellow man.”
After reviewing security footage, police are looking for an elderly man with white tufts of hair protruding from his head and “crazy eyes.”

Yeah, no.
That unkempt bastard has shown no skills, on using a comb.
Missing? Nah. Picking just enough of “its” dumb bastard supporter’s pocket[book] without said semi-literate/functionals unable to take their focus away from their [dumb]phone “socializing” long enough to realize it.
This whole “Sanders is a socialist. Sanders will pick your pocket.” schtick will not work against him. It’s hackneyed and simplistic. If you want to make the case against “socialism”, first you have to define the term – because young Americans think Western Europe is socialist – and then specifically show its weaknesses, not just throw the term “socialist” about and expect it to take somebody down. In that way, it’s like the term “racist”. It’s been overused, so it’s met with yawns.
If you haven’t watched the Sanders town hall on Fox, it’s here:
Fast forward to about 24:45 where the bimbette starts hectoring him with the usual conservative talking points about Single Payer (Medicare For All). When he’s finally able to get a word in edgewise, he’s quite forthright that it will require tax increases – albeit in exchange for no longer having to pay insurance premiums, co-pays and deductibles. Forthrightness is what makes Sanders attractive. An effective case against Single Payer can be argued, but conservatives think – wrongly – that they don’t have to make that case.
