2. Trump grew up as a boy king tyrant

with everything handed out to him on silver platter. He probably got everything he wanted all of the time.
As early as a child, he assaults his teacher who I suspect was trying to make him into a decent human being.
His dad sends him to the military school, which made him worse, I think. In those places, obedience to power and authority is taught as absolute good. That's how he admires the boy king in North Korea, because unlike Trump, he has no one reigning in on his tyrannical tendencies.
Bernie faced economic hardship and discrimination as he was growing up.
Out of that experience he learned how to empathize with those inflicted with pain and suffering. And his policy platform reflects that capacity for empathy.

I take offense to this particular bullshitting.
Those brain-dead pundits so glibly putting Bernie and Trump in the same box is offensive.
