Everyone who donated to him should rock up expecting to be allowed to use it

inb4 he builds a wall around the property and hires armed guards.

Well it is a bit funny the guy has a stated net worth of $560k. Then suddenly he's driving a sports car and has $600k handy to buy a "summer house"

Like he paid 600k in cash. Do you even know whats involved in buying a house?

seriously 600k $ is not that much. Whats that, like 150k €?

537.754,90 Euro.

So a cheap shack for a guy of his profile

He stated his net worth going into the election as $560k. Where did he get $600k cash from?

Hillary?

reddit should've listened to Sup Forumss warnings about jews
Sup Forums is always right

Who has the money before he buys a house? Seriously. You go to a bank, state your income and get a loan. That's how most people do it.
Loads of people even loan their fucking TVs

More likely that money came from the Clintons.

>Sup Forums is full of literal underage children that thing once a politician drops out of a campaign they just walk away with all of the campaign contributions and just pocket them

Besides, if you faggots voted for Bernie he would have made an America where everyone could buy a summer home possible.

Bernie is my idol, he Jewed the Goyim so hard they will never recover.

Are half of you itt like 13. One 600k is not that much for a house. His row house in DC is probably worth double that. Two, even if you have the cash, is better to finance, in most cases. This is a non issue.

Where does all of that money go then?

banks don't grant loans like that to senile old fuckers who are likely to die before they would pay it back

I live in California and $600k would get you a pretty nice house. Pretty much everywhere in the country $600k would be more than enough for a pretty nice house.

But besides the fact that $600k is still a lot to pay for a house, let's not forget that this is a second "vacation" house. Having a second house is not exactly a luxury most people can afford, especially all of BernOut's supporters and donators who are doomed to rent for the rest of their lives (assuming they managed to move out of their mom's basement)

My god, when will this shitty meme die. You can't just do that; you'd fucking go to jail. The contributions stay with the suspended campaign (which by the way, hasn't been dissolved) and will either go to a super PAC or will go to his Senate campaign. If he'd used the money for a house, it'd be all over the news. Career politicians, which he is one of the longest serving by the way, are the richest people out there.

Tl;Dr young gullible Trumpfags trolling young gullible Berniefags

Hello shill.
Politicians can pocket all that money upon retirement, and considering his age, it wouldn't be surprising if he did retire.

As for making "summer homes" more affordable, that does not mean making summer homes more available.
For example, healthcare here in Canada is affordable. The long waiting periods because of the artificial demand means its less available.
Unless Bernie is shitting out homes, you're not getting one.

Yeah, I'm sure an American bank who gives out loans like candy to janitors who can't even speak English would REALLY hesitate to give a loan to a career politician who is also a US Senator, who along with his wife, is fairly wealthy. Right. Good logic

None of what you posted is true kek. Please don't make up facts

Also if your first defense is to call him a shill, you've already lost your "argument"

NO REFUNDS!

Please don't come here with your facts and logic. That type of thinking doesn't belong on pol

>b-b-but it's not that much money!!

Holy shit the Berncucks are on suicide watch.

Not only did he steal your money and use it on himself, but he also gave millions to the Clinton campaign.

That's right, he tricked you into funding Clinton.

Pretty darn hilarious

ummm wat?

600k gets you absolutely nothing in Cali If you live anywhere even remotely near LA/SF. Where the fuck are you living?

>The contributions stay with the suspended campaign (which by the way, hasn't been dissolved) and will either go to a super PAC or will go to his Senate campaign.

Complete and total lies.

Straight up lies.

There have been many examples of politicians using campaign contributions for personal reasons. This is just another

This is the most Jewey thing I think I've ever witnessed

Source?

I hate bernouts but what are you fuckers going on about? 600k for a house is pretty average, especially for a Senator. It makes sense after the year he's had that he would want to finally kick back and buy a comfy home to retire in.

And also a source that says his campaign has been fully ended and not just suspended. A concession does not mean it has ended. So if he has used these funds, from an active campaign, we need this source IMMEDIATELY because he will be going to jail

>supply and demand is not facts

Also, after bernie retires, I bet you he's either going to start the "Save a shekel" foundation or some PAC to funnel money into, just like the Clinton's.

...

PACS can't be used in this manner. You're confused. A PAC can be used to by headquarters or lodging or much of anything, but can't be used for personal reasons like a house.

Secondly, if he chooses to make a Foundation, fine but what does it have to do with his campaign money? The money can't go from his campaign donations to his foundation and it is illegal for Super PACs to collaborate or even communicate with the candidate. So all of what you've said is fiction or irrelevant

>You can't just do that; you'd fucking go to jail.

Well if we have learned anything from hillary, it's that anything goes not only in love and war, but american politics as well. Kickbacks are more than possible, with plenty of loopholes available for them.

>TLDR? blue-pilled Bernie-bro regrets his tattoo choices, lashes out at redpillers

If his NET WORTH is $560k how can his other houses be worth twice that?

He didn't get a loan. Purchased it outright.

>b-b-buh his campaign isn't over g-guys! He still has a chance!!

He stole your money, used it for personal reasons and then gave millions to Clinton.

He's not going to jail. Nothing will ever come of this. He's a thief and a liar.

He pretended to be a democratic socialist but in reality he gave you all a hard lesson in pure, raw, brutal capitalism.

And he didn't even give you a reach around when he was fucking you up the ass

Exactly. And it's actually his third house. He has another vacation home. He just decided he wanted two.

Your assumption is not a fact. I'd bet my house he wouldn't do anything illegal with the money and most people on here are simple minded and can't analyze and understand that Bernie can't just spend campaign contributions for whatever the fuck he wants

Yes yes, first it was your college fund and your parents retirement money, now it is your house. When will you berniebros ever learn?

I never suggested he had a chance, I'm simply pointing out that he hasn't ended his campaign, and so the money is still part of the active campaign

Also. I'm not a Bernie supporter so it's not my money

Lastly, again, super PACS can't communicate with candidates. It's a federal law. And you can't take campaign contributions and just deposit them into your bank account.

Go look it up. I'll wait.

Where'd he get the money then?

What the fuck are you even babbling about? Is this baby's first troll attempt? Am I being trolled? Good lord are Germans good at anything?

I heard he and his wife sold a home they inherited to pay part of the 600k for his summer home. Can anyone argue that? Sounds like BS damage control to me.. Especially after everyone knows he blew campaign funds on plane trips to Rome with meals that costed enough to feed a family for a week.

Gosh. A career politician with investments in the millions, who is a sitting Senator with a pension and a paycheck who only has to report the latter in his tax returns he released...and a senator by the way who will go into lobbying upon his retirement...I'm sure no bank or individual would foot a loan for him right?

Idiot.

...

...

Source? He went to Rome as part of an international trip and didn't even meet the Pope so. Nice try

Yeah but the guys 74. So who is he inheriting money or a house from at that age? His parents? Doubtful.

You're some kind of stupid aren't you? Not how inheritance tends to work except in fiction

He didn't get a loan and he isn't worth millions. He hasn't retired or even mentioned retiring.

It is hilarious to see the Bernouts on Damage Control. Them crying that their only chance to be free of student loans is gone.

What a fucking joke they were.

politicade.com/confirmed-bernie-sanders-illegally-used-campaign-funds-for-overnight-trip-to-italy/

Don't crucify me, I'm not trying to argue, this is all speculation on my part as your election is not my concern. I can't even vote so try not to get too butthurt. I'd rather you burgers not miss anything though, so clear it up amongst yourselves however suits you best.

I saw an article on fagbook about it and someone linked another article where it said he and his wife inherited a house years ago and sold it. You're right, at 74 years old it seems impossible to inherit anything from your presumable long dead parents, I assumed they inherited long ago and sold recently.

>heatst.com/politics/bernie-sanders-buys-house/
Hahhaha
>poor people actually believe this
My dad bought my brothers appartment, paid all of it it one go. He couldn't get a loan anymore because of old age (64).
But it's no biggie since we have money

That's his net worth. Doesn't include loans, gifts, or investments

Wasn't he like 300k in debt or some shit? lmao

Typical kike

>tfw miss Simpsonsposting

Thats cheap.

Oh yeah:
>Bernie Sanders' net worth is affected by $25,002 to $65,000 in credit card debt. Sanders lists two Visa Card debts, one from $10,001 to $15,000 and the other from $15,001 to $50,000. Sanders must keep up with his payments, because the interest rate on the first card is only 8.5% and the second is 10.25%.

lmao

I sort of supported Bernie (I know, don't hurt me Sup Forums) but this is ridiculous. Fuck that old, dirty, hyocrite of a jew. Fuck all politicians. I'm voting for Trump because this country needs to fuck itself.

/Thread
We tried to warn reddit
They never listened

Maybe it was that house from old uncle Colonel Clinton Foundation Sanders that went up and died of the ricketts back in 86?

That was my entire point? You seemed to try to suggest this was some vacation, with multiple trips at that. Now we can debate the merits of him using the funds to go there, and taking the trip as a candidate, but the truth of the matter is he was invited and gave a speech so of course he is going to use funds?

>It's a federal law. And you can't take campaign contributions and just deposit them into your bank account.

you bet your ass you can, you can buy some """""""campaign equipment""""""" with your donations and that's how you do money laundering.

the feds can defiantly pick this up tho but it depends on who will get elected probably

This is all some Reddit-tier shit and while I realize it's trolling, it isn't worthy of pol

>Campaigns cost a lot of money. You’ve got to pay for a lot of things and a lot of people’s time and effort. Sanders will be using your donations to cover whatever’s left from all of that.

>And if there’s still more leftover?

>The Federal Election Commission hasstrict rulesabout what you can do with any money leftover from a political campaign.

>Mostly, you cannot use it for yourself. This will not be filling Bernie’s pockets.

>Leftover presidential campaign money can be donated to charities or a political party.

>You can also donate leftover money to another candidate, but only up to $2,000.Leftover money can also be saved for a future campaign.

>Campaign hasn't officially ended meaning he still has bills to pay
>He can't donate "millions to Clinton" only up to $2,000
>He can't use the money for personal gain

So if he doesn't use it in a future campaign, like his Senate campaign, he will likely donate it. This is provided that after he pays everyone, he still has money leftover. Personally, I believe he may even lose money and have to personally foot some bills

No, you can't. And he won't.

>Gave millions to Clinton

Source?

See

Actually fuck wit you're wrong. After the 2008 mortgage shitstorm banks got told 'don't fucking do it again, here, go free' now you gotta jump through hoops to get a fucking mortgage while banks are looking for the next great way to fuck the average joe

>Getting a mortgage in your late 70's
What a fucking PLEB

>You can also donate leftover money to another candidate, but only up to $2,000.

Lol and the wikileaks emails from guciffer 2.0 show the DNC is keeping the donations under wk right? They're politicians they wouldn't lie or be corrupt or break the law.

Bernie will probably go down to his new summer house in his new $170 k car and take a load off. Being a sellout and a cuck is hard work.

exactly like i said.

"donate to other runners" mean he will put the money in a pocket which will be like a personal safe until the elections are over

i bet he didn't buy that house by himself

...

You are partially correct, but banks find the same loopholes and reasons to give out money to people who shouldn't have it. It's just "high risk" situations are more closely regulated. And only regulated. Doesn't mean they cant take them on, though

And are you suggesting a sitting US Senator whose wife has a lucrative career and who both have millions in investments are a "risk" or can't get a loan or cash from an investor or wealthy philanthropist? Really?

Because if you are, you're not very smart. Although you kind of already proved that by blithely thinking the big banks totally reformed. Kek

>Now we can debate the merits of him using the funds to go there, and taking the trip as a candidate, but the truth of the matter is he was invited and gave a speech so of course he is going to use funds?

But the article said

>The reports provide evidence that Bernie Sanders illegally used campaign funds for his overnight stay in Italy with 10 family members. Lodging at the 5-star luxury Hotel Boscolo Exedra in Rome, Italy was billed to the campaign in the amount of $13,758. Rooms at the luxury hotel start at $400 a night and go up to $8,000 a night. Additional expenses include $883 for lodging and catering at Hotel Michelangelo in Rome.

On 4/8, Bernie Sanders announced he would travel to the Vatican on 4/15. Private chartered flights must be paid in full before scheduled departure date. On 4/11, the campaign disbursed $613,451 for chartered air travel. This amount dwarfs all other Sanders’ campaign air charter travel expenses to date.

>We can now confirm that Bernie Sanders illegally spent over a half million dollars in campaign funds on private air travel and luxury hotels for his non-campaign related trip to Italy.

A non campaign related trip to Italy? Odd.. If you read the article it states that 10 of his family members were on that trip as well. Odd..

Maybe it was only one trip but that still doesn't change the fact that he got caught once illegally using campaign funds for a trip to Rome (non campaign related) with his family (10 members non campaign related) using campaign funds.

Sorry if you donated or got a tatoo or something but he illegally appropriated those funds whether you like it or not.

>probably

So you have no source basically other than your own lil fanfic? Bye troll

Oh boy, seriously? 600k $ are a big deal?

Yeah, he's going to get 600k mortgage as 80 year old papa who's main hobby is telling others to share

He's super old. Nobody's giving him a loan.

Okay. Screencap this. And if you're right and he engages in blatant corruption for which the money would be easily traceable and the FBI could clearly find it, and he subsequently ends up in jail, if all that happens, I'll eat my fucking hat

And I doubt he did either. Lobbyists and philanthropists give out shit much more expensive all the time to candidates and politicians like this

I didn't support him so I didn't donate anything. And I think you need to go read more than one biased article, which you didn't even read correctly. The campaign is allowed to reimburse a candidate for trips; your source suggests that the trip may not be related to the campaign. And is therefore illegal

But that isn't based off a fact; it's based off an assumption and a viewpoint. So like I said we can debate the merits all day long, but it doesn't mean the trip reimbursement is illegal.

im not saying 100% that he is corrupt, but i know that alot of politicians engage in this, even from my country

Also, your source is an opinion site that styles itself as a left leaning alternative and for others in this thread nor familiar with politicade, it's basically a shit version of POLITICO that reddit uses for news

None of this surprises me given that you're a leaf. But it's hardly a source. You're just a shit troll and you and I know it

Okay and? So you basically have no source for the shit you're spewing. Number two, he's the opposite of Clinton and even Clinton doesn't engage in half of what this thread is suggesting and number three, campaign contributions are watched VERY closely. I think the real story is someone cozy to his campaign that is very wealthy probably gave him the money outright or gave it as a loan. Or Bernie used some investments that undoubtedly grew during his campaign. They could be lobbying funds. All of the aforementioned are hypocritical given his campaign message, but not illegal

>politicians
>laws apply
wut

Source: It's summer. You buy a summer house where you gonna go?

And I'm not trolling mate. See I lived in America a few years and you guys are bluepilled as fuck. You do not even have the word "Rort" in your volcabulary. It seems the idea that politicians are corrupt shitcunts that literally lie and make fake promises for a living hasn't dawned on you. You see it all the time but stick your heads in the sand. No they wouldn't lie and steal off you. They aren't on the take!

Here downunder we KNOW politicians are rats. That's why we go through a prime minister every year because WHEN they fuck up. WHEN their ministers are caught using public funds for private expenses they are held accountable. And they lose their jobs. They lose their seats and they are out next election.

You guys though you just can't get your heads around it.

Please provide an actual source and not arbitrary anecdotal BS. Because I'm not debating the merits of your argument. I'm just saying the opinions people are trying to use as facts in here are just laughable. People using reddit-tier sources like Politicade thinking I'm some Bernie fan and I'm going to go "oh my god! He did something illegal!" When even a 12 year old can tell the difference between unethical, immoral, hypocritical, and illegal

He's a hypocrite, nothing more

the only reason anyone knows who he is is because he ran for president, not because he's rich

>Number two, he's the opposite of Clinton and even Clinton doesn't engage in half of what this thread is suggesting

>Are you kidding me?

Obviously never watched Clinton Cash have we? White Water? Insider trading on cattle futures? The list goes on and on. You just gave away any shred of credibility you had saying HILLARY CLINTON doesn't engage in this behaviour. Lol

>i i its only 600k
>h h he deserves it
as usual communism is only cool for the leaders

...

>ummmmm
Are you a teenage twat?

>Half the behavior that people are suggesting

I realize why you misread my own statement but I'm not disagreeing. Of course she is corrupt. But when we focus too much on meme-level fantasies, we detract from the facts and our own message, which is what we need to focus on to derail Clinton

Basically, it's why so many people on here like Trump; they share the same disdain for facts, and in your case, reading comprehension

...

>it's different when I do it goyim
>leave me and my bernie wall in peace

People are saying that he can't directly use campaign money to buy a house, true

But if I own a paper company, Bernie can give me 300k for 100k of flyers then I give him back 150k later. You can do that in small increments throughout your campaign spending. Very easily if he has a shell company (like a Clinton foundation) or they pay him for "consulting" or "speeches"

Note that bernies campaign spent a FUCKLOAD compared to everyone else

Whatever lmfao, you believe whatever your little bernie heart desires. People like you make he hope clinton wins so you fags can see what supporting jews gets you

I dont want Clinton to win, but I'm worried she will because people like you latch onto these weird fantasies instead of focusing on the facts. If we focused on the facts, that'd be enough to lose her the election

>Doesn't realize that if the FEC even suspected misuse, let alone illegal activity, that they would make Bernie pay back his campaign for the trip.

Which they haven't done, btw

>Doesn't post reputable sources, instead posts opinion articles by reddit-tier level shit sources

This is my issue with you. We can debate the merits of him using campaign cash all day, but you need to realize the FEC has the say in whether something is illegal or not. Until then, it's just your opinion. And instead of coming to terms with this, you post bait-level shit from shit sources trying to convince me there's some mass Bernie conspiracy. You realize I don't support him, correct? So you aren't really trolling me as much as you are pissing me off that you're on here instead of reddit where you belong

Of course he did. Grassroots campaign offices in every state doesn't come cheap. A lot of states Clinton gave up on but Bernie, to even have a chance, had to campaign in damn near every one
