He spoke about this in an economic way rather than a military one and well, countries with first world ressources and suitable education compete on the same global market as europe or the usa do.
@ David Pakman, I really like the point you made about the foreign policy question, that our "enemies" are playground politics, though I don't think Bernie actually fumbled it. You and all of us viewing after the fact have an opportunity to frame a reply based on someone's previous reply, with notes, and that luxury of time. Bernie answered in real time, without notes, and got to the larger issue of Climate Change, within less than a minute, without appearing pacifist. My opinion is that Bernie has a better view of the challenges facing the nation, how to effectively use the presidency to confront and work to solve those challenges than any other candidate out there. Bernie also recognizes where he has deficiencies and is not afraid of seeking, and attracting, the advisors / potential cabinet to truly bring the best and brightest to the most important tasks at hand. You would make an outstanding press secretary for Bernie!
Christy Ann ; ) Thanks for the vote but I lack the optics having lived and worked outside the USA for the last 20 years. However that vantage point, largely away from the superficiality of domestic media permits me the luxury of praise or critique without retribution in my everyday life. The abuse of each other today has become ridiculous, largely stoked by 1 individual, or individual #1, who is in a permanent state of rage, poorly expressed, but propagated all too successfully amongst his cult. Is it any wonder my returns are brief? Let us hope sanity prevails in 2020. BTW these last 20 years abroad I voted in every election by absentee ballot. Vote!

I like that he stands to answer and confront the moderators with his reply. Standing commands power over those sitting. Bernie is needle sharp and iron strong. Great town hall Bernie!!

. . . Berrnie's just got that man in the street demeaner that the others don't. And he's got a solid athletic past, and current healthy habits, -- that translate to a still vital person, with a vibrant voice and mind.

He did a fantastic job because he's the most qualified. On a different note.. while watching a video and give it a thumbs up, I noticed that UA-cam deleted my thumbs up each time (about five times) after I paused or stopped the video. Not sure if that's normal
I just gave more money to Bernie. We need to make sure he will out fund Biden and everyone else. Give what you can; it’s about the number of people supporting Bernie, not how much each one of us gives. Bernie 2020! Go Bernie!
HE HAS TO GET ON BOARD WITH REPARATIONS,OR MY VOTE IS GOING ELSEWHERE. I don't want it studied I don't want to analyze it for the next 5 years. I want reparations now!!!! If not I rather see Trump in office because I don't have anything to LOSE. We're already at the bottom!
@@vaultsoferowid He almost won the primary last campaign and it was truly revolutionary, what are you to say it won't happen again only this time he'll win the primary?
Excellent, David. Thanks!!! I disagree with you inasmuch as I think that Bernie also handled the "fumbled" answers well, as a matter of fact. Bernie 2020!!!!
The reason the audience was pro Bernie is that Fox couldn't gather an audience who wasn't pro Bernie. They recruit people the same way audiences are recruited for other shows, i.e. by asking folks off the street..
When Bernie stumbled on the answers it looked like he was just so shocked by their stupid questions that he didnt know how to answer at first. You can really see how he struggles not to say anything offensive 🙂. I hope they dont catch him tired, on a bad day, because that might cause him to explode in their faces 😆
This was an awesome analysis of Bernies town hall Q and A . After watching the full replay yesterday , you came away thinking this man is indeed the real deal and the possible 46th president of the United States in 2020 .
When tax increase opponents say "why don't you pay more on your own", why doesn't anyone point out that you can't?? By law the irs cannot use any additionally paid funds from taxpayers, they can only credit it to your account towards future owed taxes.. if there are no future owned taxes they will automatically send it back to you.
@9753flyer - its for the idiotic base that doesn't understand - that thinks Bernie should 'be the leader' - talking point like he shouldn't fly because he believes in the climate change. This is the thinking that he is up against. Fox/Alex Jones propaganda.
Technically you can make a payment to pay down the debt, not that one person could actually make a visible dent in the total debt anyway. That's just a BS non-point that right wingers like to throw out, thinking it's some kind of irrefutable argument against them having to pay taxes. From Form 1040 Instructions: "How Do You Make a Gift To Reduce Debt Held By the Public? If you wish to do so, make a check payable to “Bureau of the Fiscal Service.” You can send it to: Bureau of the Fiscal Service, Attn: Dept G, P.O. Box 2188, Parkersburg, WV 26106-2188. Or you can enclose the check with your income tax return when you file. In the memo section of the check, make a note that it is a gift to reduce the debt held by the public."
He could be charitable, but his tax returns don't reflect that. He wants the American people to pay. He personally doesn't want to pay more. Wake up people.
@hamd52 - and let orange agent 45 mangle MORE money. I think that's why Bernie laughed. The more money he has the more he squanders it. Who else could bankrupt THREE casinos. The premise of a casino is that they make money for the government. How the hell do you LOSE money. Unbelievable.
@@rrgz7717 Wrong. He gave around $19,000 to charity. And he did pay his fair share (which was 26%) of taxes based on his worth, instead of using loopholes, like some other guy we all know...
That's a good point lol. They loved Bernie and this was fox people we're talking about. The man is fucking carrying these bks to town. (Gamer lingo for player who's doing all of the work and making it look easy.)
According to the hosts the audience was fairly packed with Bernie supporters and non supporters. Still, Bernie went to Fox, told the truth, mocked Trump and get an ovation. The only thing missing was he dropping a mic.
@@3star2nr Well, I support him. We supporters must work twice as hard as we did during the midterm elections. The Republicans and their FOX mouthpieces will pull out all the stops to "swift-boat" Bernie. We can't let him and America down.
Jenjen 100000 It would be a fantastic development for humanity if Jeremy Corbyn were elected PM and Bernie Sanders elected POTUS. It would be the left wing version of Reagan and Thatcher.
Propaganda against Corbyn is quite strong in the UK. I have a working class friend over there and although he doesn't vote he looks at Corbyn as a crook... Now that I introduced him a little to American politics, shared an AOC video and explained Corbyn's convictions and struggles in that regard, he's been melting a bit. But the layer is thick. Those damn tabloids, lol.
Really? Who is advocating that all medical providers by employed or owned by the government? Never heard that proposal by any serious U.S. politician. Now, Medicare is entirely different. The thing the gov't does best is disburse money and that's basically all insurance companies or Medicare does. Except Medicare does it for 20% of the overhead of commercial insurance companies. If you don't think Medicare works well, tell some granny you're going to take it away. Make sure you have your own insurance first.
oh STFU, you know nothing about our politics if you think a communist like bernie is 'the man'. Democrats are NOT real Americans: they are traitors to the constitution, they vote for FOOLS, and they are ignorant of what made the USA great.
I would have said "why? How? I can't pay what I want to the IRS. I am a citizen of the US therefore beholden to the law of the US. If I paid what I wanted to the IRS, i'd be under an infinite and indefinite audit like the president"
What the IRS demands is the minimum we need to pay. You can choose to pay as much more as you’d like. But of course he pays as little as possible and tells everyone else they need to pay more. The beauty of the left is how the left likes to tell other people how to spend their money/ be more generous. Meanwhile these same people want to live the same lifestyle they are accustomed to.
I would have said "If I give money to the IRS by myself, there's no effect. If I give money to the IRS along with everyone else in the context of a tax plan, hundreds of millions of people's lives will be affected. Do you see why there is no comparison?" or "I'm not asking anyone to send money to the IRS by themselves outside of any tax plan, so why are you asking me to do that?"
When Rep’s ask progressives to walk-the-walk and pay more taxes...tell them to stop using social ideas like roads, FCC regulated media, sewage, FAA regulated air-travel, police, education, water. If Trump does all these and WALKS his “never-social” America rant I will gladly pay extra taxes 🤣😎
That's actually a really good point. "Why isn't he paying the taxes he wants to pay NOW?" "Why aren't you paying the toll roads you so desperately want now?"
6:56 thats the best "oh, come on" ive heard in a long time. its as if he had stuffed a "are you fing kidding me" and a "sit down and listen, kid" and a "if you dont know what youre talking about, maybe you should STFU" all into those two words in exactly the right tone to not make it go too far yet be completely unmisunderstandable. pretty cool magic trick.
No he handled the foreign policies question way better than your answer. What you said almost sounded like a spin. Bernie answered the question He made a very good point on the fact that we are over protecting ourselves from the countries we also invest in. He then transitioned into climate change. this was a wonderful answer because instead of avoiding the question which is what it seemed like Your answer Would have come off as, he provided a good explanation for his ideas then brought in his next subject.
In Canada, the upper middle class pay about 25 % taxes and it covers free medicine, the dire department and the police service so medicine is a similar type of service.
@@chiuansheng You say that like Americans don't already wait for years to get proper medical attention. At least in Canada you can get some healthcare services eventually. Here, you either can afford it or you can't and if you can't then you're out of options. I'll take waiting for a good thing over not having anything at all.
I'm not sure which Canada you live in, but the middle federal tax bracket is already 26%, then you have to still add the provincial tax (BC ~10%) plus CPP and a bunch of other deductions, and that's just on income. We still have high sales taxes, carbon taxes, property taxes, etc
Well you can say how you would handle who is a major threat to the USA because you had time to formulate an answer. He answered the question perfectly in my opinion.
He changed my mind about appearing on Fux, no one can agrue that He didn't totally handle both the idiots trying to undermine Him and his case, and the gawpers realising He's legit.
@@jahnkaplank8626 Yeah, so "la la land" that it's already working well all over the entire industrial world except the one country where Corpo Rat owns the government.
Anyone who runs doesn't need to run against Trump - I think we've pretty much all picked sides on that subject. Anyone who says they are undecided is either lying or irrelevant. What who ever wins the nomination has to do is convince people to not to stay home in 2020. I'm hoping for a Sanders/Gabbard ticket - or better yet Gabbard/Sanders.
Bernie was of Fox, confronted the hosts with straight answers, told truths, mocked Trump and get an ovation. Only thing missing was him dropping the mic at the end.
I just finished watching the Fox News feed and Bernie’s answers were totally taken apart. It did not come off that good because he was interrupted many times by the female host and her talking points were pushed to the forefront. I was taken aback by the whole “ interview “. I am going to find the interview that was not altered
@Dan Trebune Your arguement is horse. If he does get his way his income past 250k will be taxed at 52%. What your asking of him is to "lead by example" is exactly what will happen if his policy is passed. Your asking him to pay more taxes while other people of same income pay less, which isnt fair and against what this is all about.
Dan Trebune I understand the point you’re trying to make, my dude, but Sanders is a guy who’s putting his money where his mouth is, so to speak. Idk about the numbers you’re putting out (ie whether you’re talking marginal rates, effective rates, whatever), but for the sake of argument I’ll accept em all as true. If the hostess is asking why he’s not volunteering half of his income, I think we can agree that even if he did, it wouldn’t do anything to fix the problems with the system that rig things in favor of the rich at the expense of the people who work for a living and the poor. The only way big problems get fixed is through big solutions; if you’re in the working class, then you know damn well that you can’t go buy a politician to pass laws you like on your own. We have to wake up and see that all the wealth the 1% has hoarded was taken at our expense, we can’t fight them individually through our economic power, but we CAN organize and vote people into office who are serious about repairing the damage the rich have done to our society. Bernie released 10yrs of tax returns; he’s a millionaire. What I see in him is a person who REALLY BELIEVES what he’s saying, because even though he as a wealthy person would be taking a much higher tax rate if his policies were enacted, he still fights for them. He’s been consistent with his positions for decades; he’s not just an opportunist, he’s built his career on fighting for these policies. He’s a guy who’s willing to promote policies that will end up taking a lot of his money because he believes it’s so important. In this era of greed and wealth disparity, that says a lot to me.
I'm glad to see Bernie addressing misconceptions and misrepresentations that are critical, but far to often lost in agenda, or in simplifying things to a fault. Like reminding people 5hat the suggestion for the healthcare model financing is not just "paying more taxes" - you would no longer pay those insurance premiums. Like how Israel is a country, not a religion - its people "are Israelites, not Jews", and the Israeli government is not Judaism. Criticism of the country or its government rarely have much or _anything_ to with Semitism.
Because he wouldn't properly answer a question. He asked the lady why she doesn't pay more in taxes. Because she's not the one calling for higher taxes. He's full of crap.
@@rrgz7717 wait what? how didn't he answer properly and he's got a good argument higher taxes = people saving more money and time than using health insurance his point is why pay more for insurance when you would save money by paying more in taxes and if you really wanted private heealthcare you can still have it but you got basic healthcare is a right not a luxury . In the uk we treat sick people young and old no cost but if they want special treatment they can get it if they can afford it or get insurance by *their own choice*. Healthcare should be a human right as well as education and law enforcement in the Us people go on go fund me to afford their kids health bills that is heartbreaking
transcendental veganism I gave an example of why I believed that he didn't answer properly. In the U.S., people need things like go fund me for healthcare because they suck with money or make bad decisions. Obviously there are people that truly are in need due to unfortunate circumstances beyond their control, but many people here made stupid decisions and end up needing more healthcare. I don't want to pay for everyone's healthcare. It's not a human right. You know what is more of a human right than healthcare? Eating. But you must work in order to eat. There's no such thing as a free meal.
@@rrgz7717 wow real naive "people are in debt paying for their kids medical bills because they are stupid with money " and if somebody is starving to death they should be fed if there is universal healthcare while they are at deaths door staring that would happen and that's also why food stamps and benefits should exist and esp if people are "stupid " that means they are vulnerable and need aid , for people who are living in horrific poverty there should be protection to aid basic human rights there's a difference from food and utilities needed for survival and minimal wellbeing and food and other goods that are luxuries in order to give people equal opportunities basic needs should be met and if you are in a fair society you must consider that healthcare, food shelter and education that basic needs and if you where a child who needed surgery that costs 1000's somebody in a minimal wage job won't be able to afford it . Incentive and employment are obviously important but allowing people to die on the street or fend for themselves is cruel and people who are of lower intelligence will be most vulnerable.
Bernie is stronger under adversity. He's fine when everyone agrees with him. He's reasonable. But he really shines when he's facing people that disagree with him.
if everybody pays into the healthcare pool the prices go down. why don't conservatives want to see this? it's the same how investments work. you spread the risks so the individual costs go down.
It's also important that health care insurances are run non profit. Health shouldn't be a profit issue, it's a human right. As long as companies can increase their profit by not covering this and that with lame excuses people don't get what is their right to get. And it makes the insurance tons cheaper. Look into other countries, they all can do it.
@@fabigrossi2976 i think getting rid of insurance companies would work far better. having one pool(ie the government) would make it far cheaper especially when everyone pays into it. of course you don't want a government that slashes those funds of course.
@@robertfranks8047"What if I want to pay 9% total taxes and want the government to leave me alone? And don't want anything from the government?" so no using fire department, police, postal service, roads, electricity, water, and all other government programs. wanting to be separate from government is a fantasy in the modern world
@@robertfranks8047 you benefit from public infrastructure, schools, a safe community to live in, etc. Those things don't come out of a vacuum. If your car breaks down and needs repairs, you don't die. If you get sick, you can die.
Best town hall I've ever seen Bernie do and it worked! I saw him winning the entire time. Not one instance and not one answer was done poorly and he broke through with this audience. It was a total win win the moderators because their questions were maybe meant to frame Bernie's policies poorly, but it back fired and in fact they gave Bernie the perfect platform for clarify his policies in the ideal setting and manner. The woman is acting stupid about healthcare while the man I trying to make Bernie look like a capitalist who isn't following his own agenda of policies. When they were screwing themselves by playing dumb to issues and policies that are easy to figure out. He won big time. Hands down.
I think he did a great job with the foreign policy questions. I liked his answer more than yours. Good breakdown. Trump will be running virtually unopposed so there will be a lot more Republicans and especially independents voting in the Democratic primary next year.
@@ryancparker Oh, no. The President won't run unopposed by any means. However, considering the sack of wet turds the liberal imbecilic dim-o-craps are offering up, it's pretty much a sure fire guarantee for his second win. You see, it's the dim-o-craps themselves (specifically Billery Blow Fly) who put our President into office in the first place. Except for the further clarification of liberals exhibiting their increasing concentration of weapons grade stupidity, little has changed. Prime examples? AOCotex, Blarney Slanders and Nasty Pus-pussy to name but a few. I find myself in utter awe that that blithering idiot (Cotex) can even breath on a regular basis without help from a responsible adult. Tell me. If you had a choice between a healthy meal as compared to a bowl full of shit, which would you prefer to consume?
All these establishment dems wanna call themselves progressive because it’s “in” now, but they don’t understand that words have meaning and there’s policy behind rhetoric...
wow, you lefties are completely off the fucking rails, if you think the left is spoon feeding you facts. I bet you think whatever you see on CNN is true, right?
Yeeessssssssss!!!!!! #commonsenseforBernie I love how he doesn't care to talk sh!# and wants to actually help people and get to making positive change for all!!
The GOP has been saying for years that they have a huge advantage when voter turnout is low. Trump vs Clinton has some of the lowest turnout in my lifetime and Obama vs McCain had some of the highest.
I hope things play out where Gabbard makes it on to Bernie's cabinet if he wins the nomination and goes on to win the Presidency. I love her foreign policy position.
Yang is good but Bernie is great. Bernie has been beating the same drum for 50 plus years, he won't compromise. I think Bernie will fight for real change, while Yang would compromise in the end for a government option. My ranking is Bernie>Andrew>Tulsi>Warren or we are in trouble.
I don't mind someone being a career politician if they're doing it out of a real passion for serving people and not to amass wealth and power. Anyone who would even suggest that Bernie isn't a man of strong principles and conviction is fooling nobody but themselves. The man is clearly a true believer who has been fighting the same fight, and a worthy one at that, his entire career.
Career politicians aren't a bad thing by default i don't think. It allows voters to know the voting history of said politician, how consistent they are, and it means they're experienced enough to be competent in their position and get legislation passed. The bad comes in when they use their position as a money generating job rather than a public service job. We got Trump when people took the same mentality of anti career politicians so i wouldn't base my vote on that. Vote progressives in who are more open to term limits and against money in politics if career politicians really bother you that much.

Now, you have to give the audience respect this time around...😉
Everyone was Lenny in that room
You have to admit, Brett wasnt as bad as he couldve been. but that lady Martha... she tried so hard to smear Bernie
Kasch Bullshit. They have him the oxygen he had rights to. Something the rest of the MSM would NEVER do.
You mess with the Bern you get the horns.
Thankx for this David and Team.
Im a Republican and Bernie educated me on alot of issues.. Bernie 2020
David, this was a phenomenal piece of reporting. I keep coming back to it.
He did a fantastic job because he's the most qualified. On a different note.. while watching a video and give it a thumbs up, I noticed that UA-cam deleted my thumbs up each time (about five times) after I paused or stopped the video. Not sure if that's normal
Thank you David! Appreciate all you do.
I just gave more money to Bernie. We need to make sure he will out fund Biden and everyone else. Give what you can; it’s about the number of people supporting Bernie, not how much each one of us gives.
Bernie 2020! Go Bernie!
Only a dumbshit liberal would give their own money to a candidate that has no hope of winning. Congrats, you just bought him another mansion.
Dumbshit, says the Trump supporter. You’re projecting yourself...
@@cachi-7878 You gave money to Bernie. You are indeed a mouth breathing Liberal. AKA dumbshit.
Try getting a job you worthless loser.
HE HAS TO GET ON BOARD WITH REPARATIONS,OR MY VOTE IS GOING ELSEWHERE. I don't want it studied I don't want to analyze it for the next 5 years. I want reparations now!!!! If not I rather see Trump in office because I don't have anything to LOSE. We're already at the bottom!
@@vaultsoferowid He almost won the primary last campaign and it was truly revolutionary, what are you to say it won't happen again only this time he'll win the primary?
Well done. Totally agree.
An audience full of Fox News supporters boo’d the Fox News host and chanted “Bernie! Bernie!”.
Guys I think we got this one.
Hello Mr. President!
If Sanders wins the primary then I totally agree, it's over! But sadly democrats still have plenty of time to fuck this up... 🤦♂️
Excellent analysis and critique.
Excellent, David. Thanks!!! I disagree with you inasmuch as I think that Bernie also handled the "fumbled" answers well, as a matter of fact. Bernie 2020!!!!
Props to the audience too! 🙌🙌🙌
💪 *BURLY* *SANDERS*
🤡🌎
outstanding analysis, David.
The reason the audience was pro Bernie is that Fox couldn't gather an audience who wasn't pro Bernie. They recruit people the same way audiences are recruited for other shows, i.e. by asking folks off the street..
Nice summary of the town hall. Thank you.
When Bernie stumbled on the answers it looked like he was just so shocked by their stupid questions that he didnt know how to answer at first. You can really see how he struggles not to say anything offensive 🙂. I hope they dont catch him tired, on a bad day, because that might cause him to explode in their faces 😆
Fox news audience seemed to be fired up for Bernie and Trump isn't happy about it. I guess someone is losing his fans
This was an awesome analysis of Bernies town hall Q and A . After watching the full replay yesterday , you came away thinking this man is indeed the real deal and the possible 46th president of the United States in 2020 .
When tax increase opponents say "why don't you pay more on your own", why doesn't anyone point out that you can't??
By law the irs cannot use any additionally paid funds from taxpayers, they can only credit it to your account towards future owed taxes.. if there are no future owned taxes they will automatically send it back to you.
@9753flyer - its for the idiotic base that doesn't understand - that thinks Bernie should 'be the leader' - talking point like he shouldn't fly because he believes in the climate change. This is the thinking that he is up against. Fox/Alex Jones propaganda.
Technically you can make a payment to pay down the debt, not that one person could actually make a visible dent in the total debt anyway. That's just a BS non-point that right wingers like to throw out, thinking it's some kind of irrefutable argument against them having to pay taxes. From Form 1040 Instructions:
"How Do You Make a Gift To Reduce Debt Held By the Public?
If you wish to do so, make a check payable to “Bureau of the Fiscal Service.” You can send it to: Bureau of the Fiscal Service, Attn: Dept G, P.O. Box 2188, Parkersburg, WV 26106-2188. Or you can enclose the check with your income tax return when you file. In the memo section of the check, make a note that it is a gift to reduce the debt held by the public."
He could be charitable, but his tax returns don't reflect that. He wants the American people to pay. He personally doesn't want to pay more. Wake up people.
@hamd52 - and let orange agent 45 mangle MORE money. I think that's why Bernie laughed. The more money he has the more he squanders it. Who else could bankrupt THREE casinos. The premise of a casino is that they make money for the government. How the hell do you LOSE money. Unbelievable.
@@rrgz7717 Wrong. He gave around $19,000 to charity. And he did pay his fair share (which was 26%) of taxes based on his worth, instead of using loopholes, like some other guy we all know...
Bernie fucking killed it. This might be the defining moment of his 2020 campaign. Outstanding.
Bernie would've absolutely crushed Trump and may still.
NOT A FUCKING CHANCE
Sanders will crush this orange upstart.
He'll never win
He's a socialist.
Love your answer to the foreign policy question!
Bernie made quick work of the Faux News' 'gotcha' questions lol
WOW. He didn't destroy them. That was massive bomb he dropped. There is NOTHING left. Did you HEAR the crowd?!
That's a good point lol. They loved Bernie and this was fox people we're talking about. The man is fucking carrying these bks to town. (Gamer lingo for player who's doing all of the work and making it look easy.)
I almost thought the audience had been packed with Bernie supporters.
According to the hosts the audience was fairly packed with Bernie supporters and non supporters. Still, Bernie went to Fox, told the truth, mocked Trump and get an ovation. The only thing missing was he dropping a mic.
The only people who don't support bernie are the willfully ignorant...
Anyone with common sense supports him.
@@3star2nr Well, I support him. We supporters must work twice as hard as we did during the midterm elections. The Republicans and their FOX mouthpieces will pull out all the stops to "swift-boat" Bernie. We can't let him and America down.
Great analysis David!
Bernie is your man, get your free Healthcare like us in the UK. Bernie is like our Jeremy Corbyn and he will be voted in as our next Prime Minister.
Jenjen 100000 It would be a fantastic development for humanity if Jeremy Corbyn were elected PM and Bernie Sanders elected POTUS. It would be the left wing version of Reagan and Thatcher.
Propaganda against Corbyn is quite strong in the UK. I have a working class friend over there and although he doesn't vote he looks at Corbyn as a crook... Now that I introduced him a little to American politics, shared an AOC video and explained Corbyn's convictions and struggles in that regard, he's been melting a bit. But the layer is thick. Those damn tabloids, lol.
Really? Who is advocating that all medical providers by employed or owned by the government? Never heard that proposal by any serious U.S. politician. Now, Medicare is entirely different. The thing the gov't does best is disburse money and that's basically all insurance companies or Medicare does. Except Medicare does it for 20% of the overhead of commercial insurance companies. If you don't think Medicare works well, tell some granny you're going to take it away. Make sure you have your own insurance first.
oh STFU, you know nothing about our politics if you think a communist like bernie is 'the man'. Democrats are NOT real Americans: they are traitors to the constitution, they vote for FOOLS, and they are ignorant of what made the USA great.
Jenjen 100000 Hell yeah! Best of luck to you all from across the pond
Great piece. Thanks!
I would have said "why? How? I can't pay what I want to the IRS. I am a citizen of the US therefore beholden to the law of the US. If I paid what I wanted to the IRS, i'd be under an infinite and indefinite audit like the president"
Tesseract Iluusion LMAO I like that response I’m going to use that
Also even if he gave back his entire income it wouldn't fix income inequality or the healthcare problem. We need tax reform
What the IRS demands is the minimum we need to pay. You can choose to pay as much more as you’d like. But of course he pays as little as possible and tells everyone else they need to pay more. The beauty of the left is how the left likes to tell other people how to spend their money/ be more generous. Meanwhile these same people want to live the same lifestyle they are accustomed to.
He becomes a millionaire by writing a book criticizing the wealthy and capitalism.
You people are crazy. You need help.
I would have said "If I give money to the IRS by myself, there's no effect. If I give money to the IRS along with everyone else in the context of a tax plan, hundreds of millions of people's lives will be affected. Do you see why there is no comparison?" or "I'm not asking anyone to send money to the IRS by themselves outside of any tax plan, so why are you asking me to do that?"
Amazing!
When Rep’s ask progressives to walk-the-walk and pay more taxes...tell them to stop using social ideas like roads, FCC regulated media, sewage, FAA regulated air-travel, police, education, water. If Trump does all these and WALKS his “never-social” America rant I will gladly pay extra taxes 🤣😎
That's actually a really good point.
"Why isn't he paying the taxes he wants to pay NOW?"
"Why aren't you paying the toll roads you so desperately want now?"
6:56 thats the best "oh, come on" ive heard in a long time. its as if he had stuffed a "are you fing kidding me" and a "sit down and listen, kid" and a "if you dont know what youre talking about, maybe you should STFU" all into those two words in exactly the right tone to not make it go too far yet be completely unmisunderstandable.
pretty cool magic trick.
I think he got through to some conservatives after that showing. He went full Larry David on their asses lol.
Great stuff David
my favorite bernie quote from the fox news town hall, "okay, relax, we'll get through this together." HAHAHAHA amazing.
Same. I was cracking up 😂
Like talking to seriously brain-damaged children. Even Bret was embarrassed.
Great coverage of the town hall David! #Bernie2020
Bernie is such an OG
jaime delgado old goober?
No he handled the foreign policies question way better than your answer. What you said almost sounded like a spin. Bernie answered the question He made a very good point on the fact that we are over protecting ourselves from the countries we also invest in. He then transitioned into climate change. this was a wonderful answer because instead of avoiding the question which is what it seemed like Your answer Would have come off as, he provided a good explanation for his ideas then brought in his next subject.
In Canada, the upper middle class pay about 25 % taxes and it covers free medicine, the dire department and the police service so medicine is a similar type of service.
And one year waiting for hip replacement.
@@chiuansheng You say that like Americans don't already wait for years to get proper medical attention. At least in Canada you can get some healthcare services eventually. Here, you either can afford it or you can't and if you can't then you're out of options. I'll take waiting for a good thing over not having anything at all.
Cameron Simonis I commented this before on some other video: Basically: be rich or die
I'm not sure which Canada you live in, but the middle federal tax bracket is already 26%, then you have to still add the provincial tax (BC ~10%) plus CPP and a bunch of other deductions, and that's just on income. We still have high sales taxes, carbon taxes, property taxes, etc
@@chiuansheng How long does it take to get a hip replacement in the US?
Well you can say how you would handle who is a major threat to the USA because you had time to formulate an answer. He answered the question perfectly in my opinion.
He changed my mind about appearing on Fux, no one can agrue that He didn't totally handle both the idiots trying to undermine Him and his case, and the gawpers realising He's legit.
he's not 'legit', never will be.Everything about his ideology is LA LA LAND.
@@jahnkaplank8626 Yeah, so "la la land" that it's already working well all over the entire industrial world except the one country where Corpo Rat owns the government.
Bernie God Bless you!
Bernie 2020!!
DAMN RIGHT!!!
Anyone who runs doesn't need to run against Trump - I think we've pretty much all picked sides on that subject. Anyone who says they are undecided is either lying or irrelevant. What who ever wins the nomination has to do is convince people to not to stay home in 2020.
I'm hoping for a Sanders/Gabbard ticket - or better yet Gabbard/Sanders.
Without a doubt, gabbard has the best foreign affairs policies. I would love her as vice president
Bernie was of Fox, confronted the hosts with straight answers, told truths, mocked Trump and get an ovation. Only thing missing was him dropping the mic at the end.
I just finished watching the Fox News feed and Bernie’s answers were totally taken apart. It did not come off that good because he was interrupted many times by the female host and her talking points were pushed to the forefront. I was taken aback by the whole “ interview “. I am going to find the interview that was not altered
@Dan Trebune
Your arguement is horse.
If he does get his way his income past 250k will be taxed at 52%. What your asking of him is to "lead by example" is exactly what will happen if his policy is passed.
Your asking him to pay more taxes while other people of same income pay less, which isnt fair and against what this is all about.
This is the stupidest argument I've ever heard.
Dan Trebune I understand the point you’re trying to make, my dude, but Sanders is a guy who’s putting his money where his mouth is, so to speak. Idk about the numbers you’re putting out (ie whether you’re talking marginal rates, effective rates, whatever), but for the sake of argument I’ll accept em all as true.
If the hostess is asking why he’s not volunteering half of his income, I think we can agree that even if he did, it wouldn’t do anything to fix the problems with the system that rig things in favor of the rich at the expense of the people who work for a living and the poor. The only way big problems get fixed is through big solutions; if you’re in the working class, then you know damn well that you can’t go buy a politician to pass laws you like on your own. We have to wake up and see that all the wealth the 1% has hoarded was taken at our expense, we can’t fight them individually through our economic power, but we CAN organize and vote people into office who are serious about repairing the damage the rich have done to our society.
Bernie released 10yrs of tax returns; he’s a millionaire. What I see in him is a person who REALLY BELIEVES what he’s saying, because even though he as a wealthy person would be taking a much higher tax rate if his policies were enacted, he still fights for them. He’s been consistent with his positions for decades; he’s not just an opportunist, he’s built his career on fighting for these policies.
He’s a guy who’s willing to promote policies that will end up taking a lot of his money because he believes it’s so important. In this era of greed and wealth disparity, that says a lot to me.
I'm glad to see Bernie addressing misconceptions and misrepresentations that are critical, but far to often lost in agenda, or in simplifying things to a fault. Like reminding people 5hat the suggestion for the healthcare model financing is not just "paying more taxes" - you would no longer pay those insurance premiums. Like how Israel is a country, not a religion - its people "are Israelites, not Jews", and the Israeli government is not Judaism. Criticism of the country or its government rarely have much or _anything_ to with Semitism.
And that was the last time Bernie would ever be invited on Fox.
they couldn't handle the bern
Because he wouldn't properly answer a question. He asked the lady why she doesn't pay more in taxes. Because she's not the one calling for higher taxes. He's full of crap.
@@rrgz7717 wait what? how didn't he answer properly and he's got a good argument higher taxes = people saving more money and time than using health insurance his point is why pay more for insurance when you would save money by paying more in taxes and if you really wanted private heealthcare you can still have it but you got basic healthcare is a right not a luxury . In the uk we treat sick people young and old no cost but if they want special treatment they can get it if they can afford it or get insurance by *their own choice*. Healthcare should be a human right as well as education and law enforcement in the Us people go on go fund me to afford their kids health bills that is heartbreaking
transcendental veganism I gave an example of why I believed that he didn't answer properly. In the U.S., people need things like go fund me for healthcare because they suck with money or make bad decisions. Obviously there are people that truly are in need due to unfortunate circumstances beyond their control, but many people here made stupid decisions and end up needing more healthcare. I don't want to pay for everyone's healthcare. It's not a human right. You know what is more of a human right than healthcare? Eating. But you must work in order to eat. There's no such thing as a free meal.
@@rrgz7717 wow real naive "people are in debt paying for their kids medical bills because they are stupid with money " and if somebody is starving to death they should be fed if there is universal healthcare while they are at deaths door staring that would happen and that's also why food stamps and benefits should exist and esp if people are "stupid " that means they are vulnerable and need aid , for people who are living in horrific poverty there should be protection to aid basic human rights there's a difference from food and utilities needed for survival and minimal wellbeing and food and other goods that are luxuries in order to give people equal opportunities basic needs should be met and if you are in a fair society you must consider that healthcare, food shelter and education that basic needs and if you where a child who needed surgery that costs 1000's somebody in a minimal wage job won't be able to afford it . Incentive and employment are obviously important but allowing people to die on the street or fend for themselves is cruel and people who are of lower intelligence will be most vulnerable.
Great video
Thank you 😀
Bernie is stronger under adversity.
He's fine when everyone agrees with him. He's reasonable. But he really shines when he's facing people that disagree with him.
Good stuff, David.
if everybody pays into the healthcare pool the prices go down.
why don't conservatives want to see this?
it's the same how investments work. you spread the risks so the individual costs go down.
It's also important that health care insurances are run non profit. Health shouldn't be a profit issue, it's a human right. As long as companies can increase their profit by not covering this and that with lame excuses people don't get what is their right to get. And it makes the insurance tons cheaper. Look into other countries, they all can do it.
@@fabigrossi2976 i think getting rid of insurance companies would work far better.
having one pool(ie the government) would make it far cheaper especially when everyone pays into it.
of course you don't want a government that slashes those funds of course.
@@robertfranks8047 but you will end up so much cheaper with universal healthcare. why would you want to pay individually?
@@robertfranks8047"What if I want to pay 9% total taxes and want the government to leave me alone? And don't want anything from the government?"
so no using fire department, police, postal service, roads, electricity, water, and all other government programs.
wanting to be separate from government is a fantasy in the modern world
@@robertfranks8047 you benefit from public infrastructure, schools, a safe community to live in, etc. Those things don't come out of a vacuum.
If your car breaks down and needs repairs, you don't die. If you get sick, you can die.
Best town hall I've ever seen Bernie do and it worked! I saw him winning the entire time. Not one instance and not one answer was done poorly and he broke through with this audience. It was a total win win the moderators because their questions were maybe meant to frame Bernie's policies poorly, but it back fired and in fact they gave Bernie the perfect platform for clarify his policies in the ideal setting and manner. The woman is acting stupid about healthcare while the man I trying to make Bernie look like a capitalist who isn't following his own agenda of policies. When they were screwing themselves by playing dumb to issues and policies that are easy to figure out. He won big time. Hands down.
Bernie changed a lot of souls yesterday .Change is coming folks! BERNIE 2020 VOTE
Yes Jesus is coming and he's promised to make all things new
Go Bernie!!!!! the man.
I think he did a great job with the foreign policy questions. I liked his answer more than yours. Good breakdown. Trump will be running virtually unopposed so there will be a lot more Republicans and especially independents voting in the Democratic primary next year.
Do us all a huge favor and hold your breath on that one.
@@paulstovall3777that Trump will be running unopposed? Sorry I don't understand.
@@ryancparker
Oh, no. The President won't run unopposed by any means. However, considering the sack of wet turds the liberal imbecilic dim-o-craps are offering up, it's pretty much a sure fire guarantee for his second win.
You see, it's the dim-o-craps themselves (specifically Billery Blow Fly) who put our President into office in the first place. Except for the further clarification of liberals exhibiting their increasing concentration of weapons grade stupidity, little has changed.
Prime examples? AOCotex, Blarney Slanders and Nasty Pus-pussy to name but a few. I find myself in utter awe that that blithering idiot (Cotex) can even breath on a regular basis without help from a responsible adult.

This was very effective actually at pointing out how Fox has been manipulating their own audience. This was very funny. 9 out of 10 performance.
At least they were willing to showcase it in it's entirety.
Like that ben shapiro title
He's masterful at evading questions. A true politician.
The GOP has been saying for years that they have a huge advantage when voter turnout is low. Trump vs Clinton has some of the lowest turnout in my lifetime and Obama vs McCain had some of the highest.

Bernie is good, but I'd really like someone who is not a career politician. That's why I am for Andrew Yang 2020.
Yang is good but Bernie is great. Bernie has been beating the same drum for 50 plus years, he won't compromise. I think Bernie will fight for real change, while Yang would compromise in the end for a government option. My ranking is Bernie>Andrew>Tulsi>Warren or we are in trouble.
How did this get 5 likes lmao. Fuck Yang and his Neanderthal supporters.
I don't mind someone being a career politician if they're doing it out of a real passion for serving people and not to amass wealth and power. Anyone who would even suggest that Bernie isn't a man of strong principles and conviction is fooling nobody but themselves. The man is clearly a true believer who has been fighting the same fight, and a worthy one at that, his entire career.
Career politicians aren't a bad thing by default i don't think. It allows voters to know the voting history of said politician, how consistent they are, and it means they're experienced enough to be competent in their position and get legislation passed. The bad comes in when they use their position as a money generating job rather than a public service job. We got Trump when people took the same mentality of anti career politicians so i wouldn't base my vote on that. Vote progressives in who are more open to term limits and against money in politics if career politicians really bother you that much.
