12. Their point is they think Bernie did it for ego or campaign reasons.

They see everything through that lens and were terribly afraid his trip to the Vatican would elevate his standing and thus harm their goddess' chances. They see him solely as a competitor to the person they worship and/or serve. So when his trip didn't get much notice, they assumed he had failed and then they lapsed into rightwing juvenile sneering/ridiculing mode, which is where they are now (and most of the time). They're not concerned about money and they know perfectly well that taxpayers' money didn't finance his trip; their primary aim is to make him look bad.

They invariably come from a low and stupid place.
