I think my favorite meme so far is an image with the Spice Girls with the his new label of "Old Spice". LOL!

FYI, Bernie is donating his profits to a non-profit organization, so he's not cashing in on anything.

I've wondered whether Sen. Sanders thinks of the meme and if he gave his approval. I guess now I have my answer.

You guys are no fun. Of course he's not raking in the cash and is donating the money.

well...to be fair...when people think of the politics forums they do tend to think we're more "DYSfunCTIONAL" than fun. But I think we're fun in our own way...

I remember how Trump did that fundraiser to help Meals on Wheels in New York too! No wait...that ain't right. He bilked his followers to donate money to raise funds that were never spent on what they were supposed to be spent on.
