Bernie Sanders, Limousine Liberal: The Private Jet Hypocrisy
At 27:40 · chapter starts 26:35
The Bernie Sanders segment is Bongino at his most caustic. He plays a clip from an interview where Sanders is asked directly why, as a champion of the working class who rails against private jets and carbon emissions, he flies private. Sanders' answer — that he needs to reach 30,000 people at rallies and can't wait in an airport line — is delivered without irony. Bongino points out the obvious: every wealthy person finds flying private convenient, which is exactly why Sanders' class-warfare rhetoric is fraudulent. [1] — Dan Bongino "Bernie Sanders, asked why he flies private while railing against billionaires, said he simply can't wait in line at the airport. No apologi…" 27:10 He draws the explicit parallel to the doomer grifters: the same pattern of claiming moral superiority while living the opposite, and laughing at the suckers who believe them. 'Stupid is a choice,' Bongino declares. 'You don't have to be stupid.'
Bernie Sanders, asked why he flies private while railing against billionaires, said he simply can't wait in line at the airport. No apologies. No self-awareness. The man has spent his entire career attacking the very lifestyle he refuses to give up.
Gavin Newsom privately fought California's billionaire tax because he knew wealthy residents would flee, then filmed a hostage video calling for a national billionaire tax. He even admitted on camera that California's tax rates are 'not competitive, period.'
