Bernie Sanders Explodes When Asked About His Taxes, Hypocrisy Called Out

Socialist Senator Bernie Sanders exploded on Monday when asked during a Fox News town hall about accepting tax breaks that he voted against and why he did not send the money back given the fact that he constantly is claiming that the wealthy need to pay more in taxes.

Fox News host Bret Baier first pressed Sanders on the issue, to which Sanders responded: "Pfft…come on…I am, I paid the taxes that I owe...why don’t you get Donald Trump up here and ask him how much he pays in taxes."

A few moments later, Fox News host Martha MacCallum pressed Sanders again on the issue, asking: "So would you be willing to pay 52% on the money that you made? You can volunteer, you can send it back."

 

"You can volunteer too," Sanders responded. "Martha, why don’t you give? You make more money than I do."

 

"I didn’t suggest a wealth tax," MacCallum replied.

"And she’s not running for president," Baier added.
