Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) "has become famous as the guy fighting against 'the millionaires and billionaires,'" Trevor Noah said on Wednesday's Daily Show. "But now he may have to have a conversation with the man in the mirror."
Yes, Sanders "has come out as a millionaire — and it's funny that he had to 'come out' as a millionaire," Noah said. "Like, I wonder if he came out to his family first. 'Guys, there's something I need to tell you: I'm actually rich.' And I bet his family was like: 'Oh, Bernie, we've known for years. We had a feeling when you started ordering appetizers, Bernie.'"
