Terrified by Progressive Enthusiasm Sweeping the Nation, Corporate Democrats Have Begun Planning a 'Counterrevolution'
If Sanders is leading the way, then why didn't he voice support for people like this, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Michigan's Abdul El-Sayed. They are using Sanders and he is letting them use him again. Sanders continues to remain loyal to a party that fight everything he claims to be about. They stoled the primary from him and he stood silent. Even after being told by Donna Brizil they were stealing it from him he stood silent and went along with it. This was acknowledged in her book. His only words towards it was, "how bad is it", then played out the game with them. Democrats, the other right wing party working with the right wing party. One corporate party whore's. And you are not in the club.
Been a fan of Bernie's since he was my mayor in Burlington, VT back in 1986. Bernie marches to the beat of a different drummer but the Dems and Indis have to work together. Fuhrer Trump and his stormtroopers want to see a split in Dem Party The party is moving to the left. I think it needs to.
Is "progressive enthusiasm" another phrase for "far left wackiness" like Abdul El-Sayed here in Michigan? Candidates whose positions are so far to the Left that, although they can win a primary, have no chance of winning a general election. We don't need that. We need centrist candidates who have broad appeal, not just to Democrats.
There's also a rumor that Sanders may grab the primary victory, then decline, to run as an Independent, effectively shutting down any Democratic candidates. One giant "suck it!", while receiving campaign funds and maintaining recognition.
Yes, because that's the way to beat Trump in 2020. Split the opposing party AGAIN.
I don't belong to an organized political party; I'm a Democrat.
Yea, I don't get it. A lot of projectory in that. I think a lot of people are going to get a kick in the ass this round, 2020. In 2016 the media totally over hyped Clinton rallies. She probably got 90% + coverage over Sanders and Stein combined. While Sanders was burning down cities across the country she was left with the hose putting out the fires on TV and radio with all the help they could give her. And quite frankly, I think she loses in a fair battle. People are more aware today of her yesteryears. She wasn't as popular as the media was making her out. And most of us Sanders supporters aren't going to fall for his shit again either. He burnt his bridges! I spend a lot of time on social media from late 2015 in that primary promoting Sanders. I seen a lot of independents AND republicans looking for information on how to change parties to vote for him. Those republicans aren't coming back to someone that allowed that movement to be stolen like he did. Sanders really screwed a lot of people and they aren't going to forget it. And the democratic party knows it and that's why he's out there to attempt to draw them back in. It's not even really a democrat or republican thing now. They have a war on progressives going on. I give you Nancy Pelosi. And they are scared shitless with the progressive and green party outcomes going on in this primary season going on. It's all about putting up a wall on any chance of a 3rd party getting into the mix.
Sanders has Never been a Democrat, only an Independent. Do some fact-checking before smearing?
Hell, he bounces around from Independent to Democrat to Liberty Union party election after election... He's like a kangaroo out there.. lmao
@Captain_Feelgood NO HE DOES NOT! And anyone can go to YoTube & see his speeches & presentations that for 3+ Decades have been consistent and rational & present specific, concrete ways to pay for/implement his ideas. To say he has been "bouncing around" shows you up as the uninformed rabble-rousing troll you are! Get some real information or STFU!
@AnneWimsey Haaahahaha... you obviously don't know jack shit about that fucktard.. I actually have the REAL information, and l'm happy to share it with you here. If you click on this scroll down and look for yourself, you will see how he did in fact bounce around between those three parties as l pointed out above... And no, l won't stfu..

@Captain_Feelgood proving........?
Bernie understands the system. he is going dem coz he knows ind can't win... Bernie been doin this for 30+ yrs. he knows how to play the game.
We do not see as much coming out of the Democrats today because of the inner struggle they are having. It's as if they want to become 2 parties so the message is not clear. They remain our best hope so let's get it together.
The GOP on the other hand is 2 parties. The majority who has sold out and the few who have not.
