Bernie Sanders should consider himself lucky that nobody in the immediate vicinity had enough awareness to not break down in laughter when this chant broke out at his rally:

Sanders not only honeymooned and vacationed there but returned to espouse the virtues of Soviet communism.
He literally vacationed in Soviet Russia…..

They shoud be shouting Moscow Bernie

If Bernie’s supporters aren’t familiar with that story, it would have been a perfect time for him to regale the crowd with some USSR vacation anecdotes!
Soviet Union Bernie.

I don't know which is more amazing–the irony, or the cluelessness to the irony.

We have to stop the Russian infiltration of America by voting in the guy who used to go to Russia for vacation! https://t.co/cZzPezUXI0

That’s irony for you. Sanders honeymooned in the Soviet Union and made multiple trips to Cuba… but somehow Mitch McConnell is the communist sympathizer?

One of these two honeymooned in the Soviet Union and preaches socialism bordering on communism, and it isn’t Mitch.

Fortunately for Sanders, his fans don’t do irony.
