What does this have to do with Russia? Are you confused? Bernie used to tell us Millionaires were bad before he become one, and now he’s telling us billionaires are bad. Not sure where Russia came into the discussion

The comparison is that just because someone is wealthy, doesn't mean they aren't valuable or hypocritical in advocating for policies that threaten that wealth.

In the same way that just because someone is Russian, doesn't mean they aren't valuable or hypocritical in advocating for policies that threaten Putin's government.
