Since Donald Trump’s election, his opposition party hasn’t acted much like one. The same cannot be said of Bernie Sanders, who hit the road this weekend in red states in an effort to stoke pushback to Trump’s slash-and-burn plutocratic governance.
“Trumpism is not going to be defeated by inside-the-Beltway politicians,” he said.
Which Bernie base are you talking about because the ones from 2016 and 2020 definitely believe he betrayed his base and all of their values both times?
You mean by endorsing Hillary and Biden? I had the impression that it was a minority of Bernie’s supporters that felt that was an unforgivable betrayal, though of course I could be wrong. Personally I don’t agree with those decisions and wouldn’t have done that were I in Bernie’s place, but it isn’t enough for Bernie to lose my support and I suspect many others feel the same way.
