After Russian influencers reportedly aided the campaign of President Donald Trump, opponent Bernie Sanders insisted that foreign election interference should “no longer be a tool just for the very wealthy. I mean people who are wealthier than I am.”
And sources say his cry for equality has been heard.
Speaking on condition of anonymity, a Sanders colleague stated, “We live in a society where only the wealthy old white men have been able to get the support of foreign governments, but Bernie totally changed that by getting their support for himself too. The FBI promised him today that the Russians would help him fairly now, because campaign assistance shouldn’t just be available to those willing and able to work for it.
“It’s like he pulled himself up by his shoelaces” the anonymous source concluded, “only not really, because nobody can really do that. That’s why he needed help from the Russians.”
Nobody has yet been able to confirm what type of help foreign governments have given to any candidate, but sources all along the political spectrum agreed that it has always been unfairly skewed in favor of their opponents.
