VIDEO- Fox News’ Jesse Watters Visits The University of Oregon, Makes Bernie Sanders Supporters Look Like Idiots

By now you’ve likely come across an overly enthusiastic Bernie Sanders supporter who can’t stop talking about his great ideas, like raising taxes on the rich, legalizing marijuana, making college free, etc. The funny thing is that outside of those issues, those “feelin’ the Bern” don’t know shit about his values or even politics, for that matter.

FOX News’ Jesse Watters, who loves pissing off liberals, visited the University of Oregon campus for Thursday’s edition of Watters World. He found out that yes, Sanders supporters truly are that dumb.

The video starts off hot with a supporter unable to identify if Sanders is a congressman or senator (he’s a senator from Vermont) and it just gets progressively better from there.

Personally, I can’t decide what part is my favorite: the idea that rich people should shop at thrift stores because a self-identified “queer” student gets his clothes there or the part where a woman says America can defeat ISIS by having a conversation with them.

It’s gotta be the ISIS part. Droppin’ knowledge, not bombs. Gold star for you, miss.

Now, if you’re a left-leaner and you’re blowing this segment off because it comes from the big bad Fox News, then I’ve got something for you. CNN did a similar survey of Bernie Sanders supporters’ knowledge shortly before the Iowa caucuses. For Team Sanders, it once again did NOT go well.

Just remember: Their votes count just as much as yours. Scary, right?

    Lap me if you want but I do agree with Sanders that our election process is screwed with Super PACs thanks to corporate America. When Billionaires are able to literally buy political views from candidates to protect their own interests, the aftermath for the rest of us (the 99%) isn’t the greatest. We will never be able to get the best candidate in the interest of the people either republican or democrat until that is changed.

      To add when there is generation of family politicians (Bush) etc. You know it’s not because they’re the best for the job but because long standing connections and ties they have with donors. Money talks and true democracy in the United States is dying.

      Take that away and the only people who can afford to run for president are the extremely wealthy

    That womens studies major looks like the stereotypical Tumblr using feminist.

    The second Watters asked that chick with the blue hair what her major was I knew it was gonna be some gender/feminist bs

      If that’s the shit I studied in undergrad I’d be Bernie supporter too.

    “All men are created equal.” Well, except if you have more money than someone else. Then you’re an asshole and need to cover other “equal” people’s debts.

    What’s scarier than this is that all you “geniuses” seem to not get that this is edited and the exact same thing could be done, and probably even better to Trump, Cruz, Clinton, etc. voters. Not that I’m all for Sanders, but the fact you idiots want to think that this is how all his supporters think is even more frightening. They ALL suck but Bernie is right, the system is rigged and billionaires one the system. So unless you are a billionaire, if you are for any of the wall street owned candidates you are nothing but a pawn in the system. Haha.
