Bernie Sanders has been a Russian asset for four decades...

Question

Bullshit.  MATH.  Bernie has been a Russian asset for four decades.  USSR, Communist Cuba, Sandinistas, and the East German Stasi.  He has despised the Dems ever since JFK tried to take our Bernie's hero, a brutal Communist dictator named Fidel Castro.

Answer 1

The claim is baseless and politically motivated. Criticism of Sanders’ policies is legitimate in a democratic discourse, but labeling him a “Russian asset” is not supported by any factual evidence or intelligence findings.

You did a good job providing evidence, but I think elaborating a little bit more would improve the credibility of your answer. Maybe touch on the criticism of Sanders and try to find a piece of evidence that addresses the rumor. Overall, good job!

I agree with your response but it would be helpful if you elaborated a little and provided more information to back your claim. I was not able to access your link to your source that you provided so I cannot fully check your source.

I like your response and agree that the answered claim is politically motivated, and offers much criticism, but I think it would also be helpful and substaintial to your answer to add more evidence/information into your answer and background as well.

Answer 2

The claim is false seen from the source of a social media platform which allows for false political content and spread of misinformation easily on a social media platform. The user posting the content is very politically motivated with a large following on the account that post mostly about politics and skewed misinformation. labeling Bernie sanders as a "Russian Asset for decades" is false while he has had connection with Russia this does not mean he is a asset for the country. Russian Media Aims To Help Bernie Sanders Campaign Get The Democratic Nomination : NPR

Answer 3

This claim is ridiculous and completely baseless.  The source is from a social media platform and has no validity or facts to back it up. Upon further research there is no evidence whatsoever that could possibly support these claims. This is most likely a politically fueled hate post in order to intentionally  spread misinformation.
