Maybe he knew this endorsement was forthcoming when he was asked to comment on the Venezuelan situation a few days ago.

The Venezuelan president is hoping Bernie will turn the US into Berniezuela .... so is Bernie.

Heh.

Well, I’m glad he took time off from his own collapsed economy, starving people and impending civil war to give ol’ Bernie a boost.

That's like the captain of Titanic endorsing a yacht helmsman. Or Clyde Barrow giving a reference to a bank examiner.

Now there’s one endorsement I’d run from...Venezuela is a TOTAL disaster area......a Democrat utopia.

What percent of Bernie voters could even identify what continent Venezuela’s in, much less find it on a map?
Maybe this should spur a new slogan: “If you like your toilet paper, you can keep your toilet paper!!”

What is sad is that the thinking process of our citizens is so poor that this is a “so what?” Moment for the vast majority.

The “so what” crowd thinks Venezuela was a pitcher for the Dodgers.

Let me get this straight.

Hillary has to rely on a politburo of party insiders and hacks (super delegates) to drag her across the finish line and beat a socialist...who just got an endorsement from the leader of a nation most famous for scarcity of toilet paper.
