Bernie Sanders Admits That "Nobody Knows" Cost of His Health Care Plan!!! [View all]

Bernie not only refuses to answer questions about the cost of his healthcare proposal, but he ADMITS at 2:45 that "nobody knows" how much his proposal costs!

If "nobody knows" how much your proposal costs, how can it be serious? Elizabeth Warren has been honest and given estimates of how much her proposal would cost, and thus it would seem a lot more credible that it could be implemented.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
