10. C'mon, don't sell Archer short!

She obviously got paid for much more than that. She got paid for derailing Bernie's NY primary bid from a far-away land while keeping Hillary's hands clean.

If Bernie makes good on the already scandalized invitation in the middle of the primaries, he will create the optic of dissing New York voters.

If he declines, he will create the optic of dissing the Vatican and will lose the Catholic vote.

Lose-lose, masterfully orchestrated by Hillary's obedient neo-liberal third way minions in the Vatican.

How devious of her! Of course, Bernie's ego had nothing to do with him taking the bait...

-------

Just had to edit the post:

Bernie is not being set up by Hillary's obedient neo-liberal third way minions in Vatican, Bernie is being set up by Hillary's obedient opus dei Thatcherite minions in the Vatican!

My bad and thanks to forest444!
