Walmart plans to symbolically flip off Bernie Sanders in June

Socialist presidential candidate running for president on the Democratic Party, Senator Comrade Bernie Sanders (Socialist-VT) will be speaking at the June 5th shareholders meeting, using the power of his presidential candidacy and his bad breath to advance Walmart workers’ effort to give hourly workers "a seat on the bawd," according to Bloomberg News.

Two campaigns will collide when Walmart holds its annual shareholders meeting on June 5, but the retail giant doesn’t plan to devote much time to either.

“These workahs need and deserve a seat at the tayble,” the Brooklyn-born Russia-loving 127-year-old socialist said, almost incoherently.

“If hourly workahs at Walmart were well represented on its bawd, I doubt you would see the CEO of Walmart making over a thousand times more than its average worker.

“Walmart workers are sick and tieyid of being paid povity wages, while the Walton family is worth over $170 billion,” Sanders tweeted Tuesday, not in a Brooklyn accent.

Insofar as anyone knows, Sanders hasn't actually spoken to any Walmart workers, but he wants the Walton family to do what he's unwilling to do--reach into their pockets and pay up.

Sanders is to his money as feminists are to Muslim women.

Walmart, which often has celebrities at its annual meeting, will not roll out the red carpet for Sanders [although red is his favorite color] because he's kind of a schmuck and clearly a Marxist who has never held a actual job.

Shareholder proposals are relegated to the tail end of Walmart’s meeting. Last year, the gathering devoted about a half-hour to all of the proposals from shareholders.
"Mmm, chawklick puddink"
“If Senator Sanders attends, we hope he will approach his visit not as a campaign stop, but as a constructive opportunity to learn about the many ways we’re working to provide increased economic opportunity, mobility and benefits to our associates,” company spokesman Randy Hargrove said in an emailed statement.

He might even learn what real work looks like. The dude was kicked off a kibbutz in Israel for being lazy. Really.

“Since the beginning, a cornerstone of Walmart’s culture has been engaging frontline associates in the management of the company, and we’re proud of the fact that 75% of our U.S. management associates began their career as frontline hourly associates,” the statement also said, according to Fox Business Network.

Caroline "Cat" Davis, a certified pharmacy technician in New Bern, N.C., drafted the proposal that Sanders will support, or to put it in his terms, "sahpawt."

“At a time of deepening racial and economic divide and insecurity, hourly associates can guide a more fair, inclusive and equitable corporate ecosystem that bridges differences,” the proposal said.

Davis, who is also a leader for workers’ rights organization United for Respect, filed it.

“We really want Walmart to think about us — the lowly associates who, behind the scenes, are the ones bringing in the money,” Davis said.

Walmart is advising shareholders to oppose the proposal.

Walmart CEO Doug McMillon had a $23.6 million pay package last year and the envy of socialists knows no bounds.

In 2018, Sanders introduced the Stop Walmart Act to prevent large companies from buying back stock unless they pay everyone at least $15 an hour, and to allow workers to earn up to seven days of paid sick leave.
