Dem Rank and File Look to Bernie – IOTW Report

Dem Rank and File Look to Bernie

AP

At 83 years old, Sanders is not running for president again. But the stooped and silver-haired democratic socialist has emerged as a leader of the resistance to Donald Trump’s second presidency. In tearing into Trump’s seizure of power and warning about the consequences of firing tens of thousands of government workers, Sanders is bucking the wishes of those who want Democrats to focus on the price of eggs or “roll over and play dead.”

For now, at least, Sanders stands alone as the only elected progressive willing to mount a national campaign to harness the fear and anger of the sprawling anti-Trump movement. More

  1. First, the AP is part of the bought and paid for MSM – so take their spin on things with a grain of salt.

    So what are they protesting? A federal government riddled with fraud and fiscal abuse? Forcing children to transition into some sort of different gender against the wishes of parents? Continuing the death and destruction in Ukraine? Allowing unfettered illegal immigration? Return to the addled policies of the Biden administration?

    These are losing issues. Polls show most Americans don’t agree with these Democrat policies; if the Democrats believe DOGE is going too far, explain why. If Democrats want unfettered immigration, explain how this is good for the US. Explain why we should contribute the wealth of this nation to Ukraine when Ukrainian leadership has no plan to stop the war. Tell us why parents should have no say in gender transformation of their children. Offer solutions.

    Trump laid out his agenda during his campaign. The Democrats have no agenda other than they think they belong in power.

  2. That smelly old communist is one of them insisting Elon appear before congress to answer questions on DOGE. Which I think would be entertaining as hell about the time Musk asks Bernie how he ended up with a 48 mil net worth off of a 235K a year salary.

  3. ” … to harness the fear and anger of the sprawling anti-Trump movement.” Where is this “sprawling anti-Trump movement”? Trump won Electoral and Popular vote, and he is polling now with very high numbers. The isn’t a large movement, just a LOUD one …

  4. Brad, it would be more fun to have Elon in front of Sanders after Elon’s people had looked into how Bernie got so wealthy so Elon could come in armed. It would be more fun for him to ask Bernie when he knew the answer and could reveal it.

  5. So, to the AP, Trump is “seizing power.” To those of us who voted for this, Trump is reeling in a sprawling bureaucracy so that it can rightfully be run by an executive accountable to the voters.

  6. This lazy prick was thrown out of a commune for refusing to do any work. He wrote stories for men’s magazines and lived off three women.He never had a job until he was 51 and now has three homes. Capitalism been berry berry good to him. (that’s a line from the late White Sox great Minnie Minoso).

    I’m thinking Elon already knows. Also X has been under a highly organized attack today. They just traced the I.P. back to Ukraine. Ironically the only way those bastards can get on line is with Starlink.
