Early this morning, the U.S. Senate narrowly passed the GOP tax bill. Judging from the nearly apocalyptic tone of Sen. Bernie Sanders’ response combined with the reality involved in what it would take to provide America with his wish list of “free” stuff, this might be one of the great projections of all time:
Historians will look back on Dec. 1, 2017 and conclude this was one of the great robberies in US history because Republicans are looting the Treasury.

Someone alert the authorities: Senate Republicans are looting the Treasury. I’m live now speaking about the Republican tax bill: https://t.co/pcPrFdrc8K

I say to my Republican colleagues: The American people are catching on. While you may get away with this act of looting tonight, history is not on your side.

The irony is thick.
You can’t rob the treasury when it’s your own damn money, Mr Three Houses https://t.co/8yzSf9HWWS

All government is funded by looting. You're just mad because they aren't looting the people you want to loot. https://t.co/QyNOJPZA1a

Like the way your wife looted the college & the bank? Like that, Bernie? https://t.co/8RlKprjoW1

Sanders’ intentional lack of self-awareness is comical.
