Bernie Sanders doubles down that people are ‘angry’ with Dems after Pelosi critique
www.independent.co.uk
In a statement after Donald Trump sailed to victory, the veteran Vermont senator said that the election results should ‘come as no great surprise’

Honestly call or email the Democratic party offices and voice that you one hundred percent agree with Sanders.

      I’ll not even list the progressive bills Biden has signed, because you should know them. You know Bernie and Biden are friends. If Bernie wanted Joe’s support on a bill, it was certainly obtainable. But, you have to have a bill first.

        I know all the bills centrists love to call progressive. I also know what progressive legislation got very publicly killed. Including the minimum wage increase amendment that Sanders introduced. Good work on that. I’m sure the thumbs down you’re all so happy with will continue to show progressives who’s boss.

          Ted Kennedy brought a minimum wage package to the floor every year of his terms. Sometimes he’d win. Sometimes he’d lose. But, either way it didn’t stop him. It’s nothing unusal.

            Ted Kennedy is dead. And the portion of the party that seems interested in representing workers seems to have died with him.

              Matter of fact, it was Biden who raised the minimum wage of all federal employees by executive order. Rising tide and all that.

              It was Harris who promised to take the issue of raising the minimum wage for everyone. We all know what happened. Guess it wasn’t so important

              Yet, Bernie blaming democrats for not considering working Americans is commonly accepted by some.
