Are we the only ones nostalgic for the days of his 2016 presidential campaign when Bernie Sanders was hanging out with rapper Killer Mike? We haven’t seen him around, and it looks like Bernie Sanders has found a new muse: rapper Cardi B. The two bonded back in April when Cardi B revealed her mutual love for Social Security:
FDR is "the real 'Make America Great Again' President because of it weren't for him, older Americans wouldn't even get Social Security." – @iamcardib pic.twitter.com/6FPjVRsKrF

We’re going to skip past all the dirt on Cardi B, who tweeted that she’d “dog walk” Tomi Lahren if she didn’t leave her alone, and get right to the important business at hand, which is Sanders and Cardi B hanging out at a nail salon and talking politics.
Cardi B's nails are juuuust a little different than mine. Our views on the issues are pretty similar. pic.twitter.com/PhA2wXnkpy

Socialism? You’re soaking in it! (Anyone else old enough to get that reference?)
Before we get into the comments, we’d like to repost this video of Cardi B breaking down her monthly earnings and complaining that after taxes, she has to make a million dollars just to take home $500,000 and her monthly bills are $300,000. What’s a girl to do?
you for real just lost my vote.

Does she understand what socialism is?
She gives 80% of her money to the government to divvy it out to lazy people.
She may have to cut back on the manicures and pedicures.

She was ticked when she calculated the government was taking 45 percent — good luck with that under President Sanders. Actually, she’ll probably be in his cabinet and the tax laws won’t affect her.
And between the two of you,you almost reached a double digit IQ

Like Cardi B, do you wonder what urine tastes like?
— Denny Loggins (@DennyLoggins) August 15, 2019
There’s nothing wrong with wondering.
Cardi B on people making $9 an hour: "It don't make no sense." She gets it. ???

We’re convinced. Forget all those economics classes.

Will she still be able to afford those nails if your tax plan is implemented?

You should get your nails done like hers
— Carl (@PooWithEyes) August 15, 2019
Her nails may be longer, but your claws are much more grasping in scope.

Bernie, I don't wanna hear a damn thing this pop culture figure has to say about politics. I'm exhausted of celebrity input on politics, we have enough of that with a game show host in the white house. This feels cheap and condescending. You're better than this.
