Sanders: I Don’t Regret Castro Comments, China Has Reduced Extreme Poverty

Error 404 (Not Found)!!1

Ian Hanchett 9 Mar 2020

During a town hall on the Fox News Channel on Monday, 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) said that he doesn’t regret his comments about Fidel Castro and stated that China has reduced extreme poverty, but saying that doesn’t mean he approves of China’s government.

Moderator Bret Baier asked, “Do you regret at all saying what you said, at that time, in this race?”

Sanders responded, “No. Look, I have spent my entire life fighting for working people and fighting for democracy. And, Bret, if you check my record, I have condemned authoritarianism, whether it is in the Soviet Union, whether it’s in Cuba, whether it is in Saudi Arabia. … Whether it’s the United Arab Emirates, wherever it may be. I happen to be old-fashioned, and I believe in democracy. So, if you look at a country like China, for example, today, is China a democracy? Of course it’s not a democracy. It is an authoritarian country. And Xi is taking it in a bad direction. But what can we say about China in the last 50 years? Would anybody in their right mind deny that extreme poverty in China has been reduced? Can anyone deny that? Of course not. Does that mean we approve of the Chinese government? No, it doesn’t.”

Hey Bernie, Mussolini made the trains run on time, too.

Damn, he takes a more nuanced view of totalitarian governments than he does with Republicans.

So who's going to tell Bern China was a Third-World Shithole until they loosened up their controls on Capitalism, and Cuba remains a TWS?  Bad examples, Bern.

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

Bernie is self-disqualifying himself.
Even if he deluded enough to actually believe this nonsensical drivel, he must know this is costing him millions of votes.
If he doesn't know, then that in some ways is worse.
I'll bet his advisors are giving up on him. He will not listen to good advice and he seems determined to lose.
Every Communist in history has known, 'You have to lie until you have power."
Bernie didn't get the memo.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.

Bernie is repulsive with his constant finger-pointing. I wonder if old slow quid pro Joe will bite Sanders' finger in the debate?

The United States has vastly reduced extreme poverty, too. But we did it without mass executions.

"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn

Sloe Joe only bullies unimportant proletarian citizens, not other Senators.

Yeah, killing off 100,000,000 of your poor definitely will impact the poverty level in a country. Bernie would have to kill off 25,000,000 Americans to equal that performance. No wonder he wants to revisit the Wannsee Conference.
