Bernie actually does have amnesia and memory problems as here is what he said in1987:  Back in 1987, a much younger Bernie Sanders apparently had that sense too. He warned that expanding Medicaid, the jointly run federal-state health care program for the poor and disabled, to everyone in the country would "bankrupt the nation."

"If we expanded Medicaid [to] everybody. Give everybody a Medicaid card—we would be spending such an astronomical sum of money that, you know, we would bankrupt the nation."

The "bern" actually doesn't really know what he's talking about.  Sort of like his wife who ran the college she was supposedly in charge of into the ground!
