You'll NEVER guess who Bernie Sanders blames for the #SchumerShutdown

With Harry Reid retired, Senate Democrats need someone else to wear the Koch Derangement tinfoil hat. Lucky for them, Bernie Sanders is up to the task:

This government shutdown is part of the long-term, anti-government ideology paid for by the Koch brothers. pic.twitter.com/gnx2xbOBPM

Is there anything those Koch brothers can’t do???

Yeah, well, the Koch brothers probably used mind control to make that happen.

Said the guy who voted against the continuing resolution.

Bernie didn’t know what he was doing! The Koch brothers made him do it!

Kochtopia!

Seriously, though, is there anyone who isn’t a completely nutjob who honestly believes the Koch brothers had anything to do with the government shutdown?

There is none so blind… The overwhelming majority of Republicans in both houses voted to fund the government. In the Senate, the overwhelming majority of Dem caucus, Sanders included, voted to support the filibuster that triggered the shutdown. Koch brothers? Please. https://t.co/6PdhxL9Xkl
