Maybe he'll be announcing his run for 2020 tonight....

Hoping he chooses not to run.

It's not a joke. This is real.

Republican, Democratic and so-called Independent (Democratic in all but name) response.

The more people calling out Trump bullshit the better.

...that would be unfortunate.

Legislators should leave the platform to the two leaders of the Democratic party. I'm not sure what Bernie is representing here. I don't think there's a separate Dem coalition on this issue.

This is about the shutdown and any negotiations will center on those two Democrats.

Same as it ever was.

need to be heard and deserve to give a response to Dump's lies. I hope more progressive/dem voices will respond as well and grab some media attention.

Then people won't remember the details of any of them.

remember?

At this point, we don't know what Trump will say, but we know it will be inflamatory and a lie. It may even call for emergency action. He is very likely to try to blame the Democrats for the deplorable conditions at the border.

What is most galling is that - other than the consequences of his own actions - there is NOTHING new happening there. One thing that could be pointed out is that even in the wake of 911, when people died, buildings fell and ash was in the air of much of lower Manhattan even weeks later .... and even Bush/Cheney did not do what he is proposing.

Recommended.

I'm supporting Democratic candidates in 2020.

administration and is on at least 5 committees and Chair of the Democratic Outreach Committee. He won VT's Democratic senate primary with 91% of the vote.

This Democrat is glad that he is giving a rebuttal tonight.

Has Bernie previously put out any statements in regards to the wall?

Senator Richard Blumenthal ???

They preferred Hillary to a black man in the primary. Then they voted for a white male over Hillary in the General. In 2016 those voters preferred Bernie to a woman. Then they again voted for a white male in the General.

Those voters who gave Hilary such a strong win in the 2008 Democratic primary were never her base voters, and they are not Bernie's base voters either.

than Clinton voters did for Obama. But, I guess facts don't matter.

That would be nice. And, you know, actually focus on the problems at hand.

Did Sanders break with the Dem caucus and I missed the news? *checks Google* Nope, he's still voting with us and pushing for progressive policy.

Don't get your point if it is otherwise.

And those that voted for Trump in WV were racist. Or are we pretending we don't know that?

That Sanders supports voted for Clinton at a higher percentage than Clinton supporters voted for Obama. And I don't see anyone saying that Clinton is the problem? And you picked one state out of the union to prove your point.

And how does Sanders giving his address give more support to Trump?

You just aren't making a clear cogent argument other than SANDERS!!!!@21!!ARGLBARGL

Sanders isn't the problem. TRUMP is. Sanders isn't support Trump in any way shape or form. And if you point to your graphic about WV one more time and ignore all the other stuff, I have no help for you.

Democratic Party. Why people are surprised at this when he has made specific statements that support it is the only mystery.

Pelosi and Schumer! Now Bernie, in his quest for the spotlight, has to show up and dilute it.

The Democratic response is being given by the two Democratic leaders. I don't know what response Bernie is giving, but it sure doesn't have anything to do with the Democrats.

Sounds even more likely that he’ll be running. Fuck.

I have no interest in wasting my time trying to find the sanders unofficial response.
