2025-03-23
Arrr, matey! Sen. Bernie Sanders, that scallywag from Vermont, leapt up like a ship’s cat when asked if AOC be fit for the Senate, despite sailin' the high seas o' politics together. Aye, 'tis a jolly jest upon the waves!
Arrr, gather ‘round ye scallywags, fer I be bringin’ ye news from the high seas of politics! It be none other than the venerable Sen. Bernie Sanders, settin’ sail on a pre-taped interview aboard the ABC vessel "This Week." When asked by the landlubber Jonathan Karl if the fiery Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the lass from New York, should hoist her sails for Senate, Bernie be callin’ it a “nonsense” inquiry. Arrr, he deemed her extraordinary but wouldn’t commit to wishin’ her into the Senate seat.As the winds of speculation blew wild about AOC challengin’ the mighty Chuck Schumer in a primary battle, Bernie waved his hand like a pirate dismissin’ a pesky fly. “We’ve got a whole lot of scallywags in Congress!” he quipped, standin’ up as if to make his escape. But Karl, the cunning captain, lured him back to the chair, eager for more treasure of words.
Then, the good senator, proud of his Vermont crew who sent him back with a hearty 63%, confessed that at the ripe age of 83, he was feelin’ the weight of the sails. Meanwhile, Rep. Ro Khanna, like a trusty first mate, noted that AOC be a force to reckon with, hintin’ that should she rise up, the crew would rally behind her. Aye, it be a fine day on the political seas!
