KNOWLES: Bernie Sanders Gets Bitten By His Own Terrible Idea

Daily Wire

On Monday’s episode of “The Michael Knowles Show,” Knowles discusses the revelations that while Democrat 2020 presidential candidate Bernie Sanders campaigns for $15 minimum wage, he does not pay his staff that amount and he will change the hours of staffers in order to accommodate his campaign workers. Video and partial transcript below:

There is a new report out that shows that Bernie Sanders, the socialist — he wants a $15 minimum wage for everyone and pay everybody as much money as we can — he is not paying his own campaign staffers very much. He’s paying them less than he wants the minimum wage to be. What a hypocrite! When I saw the report that he’s not paying his staffers much, I thought that’s not a big deal. First of all, campaign work is often very basic work. It’s not worth $15 an hour if you’re just passing out pamphlets or putting up yard signs. It’s very basic work that virtually anyone can do if they’re motivated to do it. A lot of people on campaigns volunteer because they actually care about it.
