Democratic Primaries
Related: About this forumRe-post from Bernie 2020 - I will no doubt get flamed for this, BUT....
EDIT:
oops, I thought somewhere I read Sanders won SC (must have still been half asleep when I looked at the phone and I dont have cable)
But Biden's "people don't want a revolution" remarks still pissed me off
Resume original rant:
I am **SO** sick of this MSM and Establishment bullshit they keep spinning, and I honestly think the people are getting wise to it too. (duh, that's why Bernie keeps winning!)
They say he's gonna break the Dem party (they also said that last time they wanted an establishment democrat in office...and we see what happened there)
They say the $$ he's making is really coming from Russians and Republicans who WANT him to run against Trump..."because Trump could beat Bernie" (and I really don't believe THAT do you?)
They say his "people" (supporters like me & you) are rude, vulgar, and attack everyone else, even fellow Dems! (*gasp* I think many of us are getting sick of this bulshit and fighting back on one hand...and there's also something to be said for people posing as Bernie supporters and stirring shit to fuck up his optics)
They say he's too old (um, have you SEEN Trump, Biden, Bloomberg, etc...besides, all that worry can be easily alleviated when he pics a VP who is younger and ready to carry his mantle forward, and he WILL.)
They say he's too aggressive and too pushy (with a BULLY running the current administration, that is seriously the most bullshit argument I've heard) Besides, we need to feel we have someone who will FIGHT FOR US...because we DO have a fight ahead of us fixing this mess!
They either DON'T cover him at ALL, or they cover him and talk about all the above and more...
It's a fucking repeat of 2016 and the Electoral Voters and those entrenched PTB don't like that Bernie would eliminate them, make their $$$$ obsolete, make them PAY THEIR FAIR SHARE
We are fighting a battle, not with each other but against the OLIGARCHS that already run this country on the broken lives of the rest of us.
So what am I gonna do??? Other than preach to the choir here...
So I'm gonna do some BIG phone banking and talking to people this week! I'm not going to stand idly by while the course of the country and my children's future is DECIDED by the rich & powerful on BOTH sides of the coin!!!

NEW: Bernie Sanders: I am an existential threat to the corporate wing of the Democratic Party. For too long the Democratic Party and leaders have been going to rich peoples homes raising money and theyve ignored the working class and the middle class. https://abcn.ws/3akycyK

(13,366 posts)He's fucking RIGHT!
The PTB (read: the 1%, the Oligarchy, the Establishment) are powerbrokering on BOTH sides because he is coming for their $$
go ahead an continue to push their narrative though... it's how they want their proles to behave, speak the PARTY line only...
