A 'self own' for the record books: Elderly socialist accidentally tells himself to 'get the hell out of politics'

Sen. Bernie Sanders, who of course lost to Hillary Clinton in the primaries last year, told himself to “get the hell out of politics”:

If you cannot win an election based on your ideas, then get the hell out of politics.

Wait … does he know he lost?

Or maybe he’s talking about Hillary?

Leave Hillary alone, Bernie! https://t.co/rByYY79wb6
