The aliens will prevent him from becoming president because of this promise. Way to sabotage your chances Bernie!
Bernie is an alien and hes going to use his replicator to give us everything for free!
One hour of political discussion and apparently the only news-worthy bit is that last bit about aliens. Vice is certainly living up to its name.

That of course is the most sensationalist headline you could make from the interview.
I believe Carter, Reagan and Hillary Clinton have made remarks during their candidacies about getting more information out on this particular topic.

And then the candidate wins the election. God only knows what they get briefed on, but I have noticed some stark changes in composure and body language after the last four candidates won their respective elections and started receiving their initial briefings. It could be me, but they really look like a big lead weight has been gently placed on them.

Yes it's almost as if they've just started what's possibly the most stressful job in the world.

Nah, gotta be aliens... ◔_◔
Theoretically, that would be part of the stress of the job.
I really like the idea that there’s a big organization of workers who handle our alien information store, and the only person who gets to use it is the president.

Just how close we really are to nuclear Armageddon, the Fed economists don't really know what they're doing, but keep up a good front, sir. There never was a Cold War, the Russian and American military-industrial complexes foresaw huge profits and made the whole thing up; Trump's just being open about a friendly relationship that has gone on for years. Oh, and the interior designer is still awaiting your decision on the carpet choices for the Oval Office.

But, yeah, it's probably the truth of Area 51; nailed it.

They were locked away and alien puppets took over their roles.

This should be titled:Hack Politician lies to Public
Funny to hear him parrot several stats and anecdotes brought up by Andrew Yang in his discussion with Joe Rogan just a couple weeks ago.
