Bernie Sanders is on the go all the time — which seems to have given him a momentary case of a campaign brain fart as he accidentally boarded the wrong jet.
The Democratic front-runner was spotted Saturday making his way off of a private Gulfstream between campaign stops in South Carolina and Massachusetts — the latter being where he held a rally at Boston Common ahead of Super Tuesday.
Fact is … the S.C. primary looks like it’s gonna go to Joe Biden, as he’s well ahead of everyone else in the latest polls. Looks like Bernie’s cutting his losses and moving on.
As for this little mix-up here, it’s kinda funny. Bernie’s been flying all over the country for different campaign events — so the guy’s definitely busy and has a preoccupied mind at the moment.
Mistakes like this (getting on the wrong Gulfstream) are bound to happen.
So long (for now). @BernieSanders and @ewarren are both on their way back to DC. Here they each are boarding flights from the same general aviation area at DSM just 36 minutes apart. pic.twitter.com/iWLYh3cGKb

Some have criticized Sanders for flying privately at all — seeing how he rails against billionaires and elites.
In fact, earlier this month … he was spotted boarding a private aircraft while Liz Warren got on her own jet as they both flew back to D.C. from different locations just 36 minutes apart.
The implication … they coulda flown together, spared the air, etc.
Down in South Carolina, someone alleged he had as many as three Gulfstreams to himself to get somewhere just a couple hours away.
Unclear if that’s true, but here’s something to keep in mind.
It’s a 2 hr drive from Charleston to Myrtle Beach & locals do it all the time – Not @BernieSanders– He & his entourage flew from Charleston to Myrtle Beach in not 1, not 2, but 3 Gulfstream Jets today. It took them 10 minutes to fly. Who is the elitist?? #BernieIsACommunist pic.twitter.com/2CWMXVn4eE

A healthy dose of “do as I say, not what I do”.
Couldn’t agree more. The sideshow actually is a silent indictment of Sanders as well as his phony, egalitarian, deep state cronies that couldn’t give a damn about the people that make this country work. (That’s YOU and ME!) During the 2016 campaign, soon to be President Trump has HIS OWN private transport as well. Big difference was: HE PAID FOR IT!
Everyone enjoy the sideshow while it lasts. We won’t have Bernie to kick around much longer.

If by some chance he became POTUS he would attack the wrong country
I once saw when Al Gore got lost in the woods and they had to send in the Secret Service or what ever to find him or while touring THOMAS Jeffersons home Monitcelo failed to ID the busts of two of the Founding Fathers and you can bet if trump and boarded the wrong jet the Media Vultures and Sharks would have feedin freinzie over this just like they did over Chenneys hunting accident
