Summary
Sen. Bernie Sanders is touring Iowa and Nebraska to rally against “the oligarchy,” aiming to energize progressives rather than launch a 2028 presidential bid.
At 83, he seeks to shape the Democratic Party’s future, arguing it lost in 2024 by neglecting working-class voters.
He hopes to influence budget battles and the 2026 midterms, targeting GOP lawmakers in battleground districts.
With Democrats lacking clear leadership, Sanders’ prominence and focus on economic inequality could define the party’s direction in the Trump-Musk era.
Good point, to maintain our clear winning strategy, we need an old centrist. How about Schumer or Pelosi, right? Electing Pelosi would be good for the stock market, and her appointees (whoever donors want) could just run the place, just like Biden’s did.
And the 83 year old deceiver of his supporters is the person you want to throw you energy behind?
Crazy shit bro.
They will never get it.
I’m commenting but also experimenting wether the /s is needed. I see I have +4 -1 with no /s right now with no /s. I think I’ll just watch to see how it unfolds.
Remember, this is for posterity, so be honest
edit: ok by not using a /s on your obvious snark, you will lose ~ 25% of readers.
