‘Straight-up BS’: Democratic chair attacks Bernie Sanders’ election critique
Sanders’ analysis that Democrats lost because they failed working-class voters scorned by party chair Jaime Harrison
Asking if “big money interests and well-paid consultants who control the Democratic party” will “learn any real lessons” or “understand the pain and political alienation” of millions of Americans, or have “any ideas as to how we can take on the increasingly powerful oligarchy which has so much … power”, Sanders came to a mordant conclusion.
“Probably not.”
And then Harrison immediately jumped in to prove the point.
Yep, not to mention, they made him DNC chair as thanks for losing his own high profile election.
As in most things, Bernie is right. He is our missed opportunity, the road divergence to the good timeline. I don’t think there’s another politician out there who is anything like Bernie.
And ofc the DNC and Bernie are at odds after 2016.
I once heard someone say that the skillset for getting elected is totally different than than the one needed to be a good president.
I believe the quote ends in "to summarize the summary of the summary: People are a problem."
Not BS, in fact, it is very accurate.
