Bernie Sanders Buys Third House – A Mere $600k “Summer Vacation House”…
Conservative Treehouse ^ | August 9, 2016 | Sundance

Posted on 08/09/2016 3:05:44 PM PDT by COUNTrecount

Keeping up with his ‘man of the people image‘ Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders has purchased this third house, a $600,000 lakefront vacation chalet in Champlain Islands.

bernie and hillary

Part of the traditional campaign negotiations between various camps is the willingness of the endorsed candidate to absorb the campaign debt of the endorser. The tighter the race, the more value is assigned to it. Subsequently, it shouldn’t necessarily come as a surprise to see Sanders financially benefiting from his endorsement of Hillary Clinton. How else does a Senator afford three homes on a congressional salary.

Senator Sanders owns one house in Washington DC and another house in Vermont; the $600k vacation home becomes his third, albeit ‘seasonal’, residence:

(Via Seven Days Independent) […] The Burlington resident last week plopped down nearly $600,000 on a lakefront camp in North Hero.

Sanders’ new crib has four bedrooms and 500 feet of Lake Champlain beachfront on the east side of the island — facing Vermont, not New York. The Bern will keep his home in Burlington and use the new camp seasonally.

A typical Communistically inspired Socialist. What is good for me is not good for thee.

Amazing how these progressives want luxury and privilege for themselves, while demanding socialism for everyone else.

Yep! Old Towne Media LLC is registered to his wife. Sleazy dealings but if it’s good enough for Hill.....

I like to remind Berniacs that his wife when she left as being president of Burlington College, they had to close, bankrupt.

Bernienomics.. eventually means (In a soviet accent) No food for you!!!

This website just about made me barf....

Whoever wrote this paints a picture of idyllic Russian ‘hobbits’ enjoying the fruits of their hobby.

They NEVER mention that Russians spend the WHOLE weekend busting their TAILS just to barely grow enough food so they don’t STARVE.

So much for that ownership of personal property jazz that the Socialist kooks are always spewing.

Bernie’s Dacha means the Marxist “GOTCHA” you fools.

For an unsuccessful working man, he sure knows how to pull off a “con job”, or is that “commie job” on the public.

He’s got a nice vacation house. I’m sitting here at work scratching my head asking “What’s a vacation”? Couldn’t afford it if I took one, unless Bernie is going to lend me his beachfront Dacha for a few days.

But something is a bit fishy because other than political office Bernie has never had a “real job”. He was a carpenter for awhile and also wrote porn stories (one anyway), then went into politics. Maybe he makes enough for three rock-star pads by making speeches and writing books and articles, but in any case he is definitely in the 1%er range.

The taxes alone on that property are probably near $25k a year.

Killary probably had Harry Reid give him some lessons on insider trading. Which just happens to be legal for Congress critters.

500 feet of shoreline for less than $600k. I don’t think so. That much should have sold for upwards of $2 million or more. But then us little people don’t have real estate brokers like Obama and Sanders.
