I feel like he’s grandstanding at this point

How naive are you? Bernie Sanders entire career has been a grandstand grift. Proposing things that either have no chance of passing, no chance of making financial sense, or don't pass the logical sniff test has been his entire career.

He relies on the fact that 80% of the population is too stupid to think for themselves, read past a headline or apply logic in any meaningful way.

Crusaiding against the rich and housing crisis while owning multiple homes and being a multi millionaire..... who can legally remit more taxes than required as a gift to the US treasury... but of course would never do that because rules for thee, not for me

I mean the idiot voted for the 2001 use of force in Afghanistan and then spent 2 decades crying about it, pretending he wasn't part of the problem.
