As AOC and Sanders Draw Crowds, 72% of Democrats Want Party to Abandon Centrist Approach to Trump | Common Dreams
www.commondreams.org
The nationwide Fighting Oligarchy Tour led by Sanders and Ocasio-Cortez is drawing massive crowds and gaining support for their pro-working class message.

The two progressive lawmakers have addressed massive crowds in solidly red states including Idaho and Utah in recent days, as party of the national Fighting Oligarchy Tour.

A survey taken by Harvard’s Center for American Political Studies and Harris between April 9-10 found that 72% of Democratic voters supported politicians like Sanders (I-Vt.) and Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), “who are calling on Democrats to adopt a more aggressive stance towards Trump and his administration and ‘fight harder’,” rather than leaders who are willing to “compromise” with President Donald Trump.

    Bernie can’t be the nominee because if he were to win and subsequently fail and not deliver - exactly what the democrats want and would ensure - they could not march him out to smother the anger again in the next election cycle.

    For what purpose, because when they do this they lose anyway.

    Your reasoning is just, “they can’t risk losing after they win, so they’re just going to lose in the first place instead”. “Democrats can’t risk losing their losing strategy”. Your reasoning is nonsensical.

    Did you not realize that she actually doesn’t answer question but talks gobbledygook around them?

    Kamala is very articulate and laid out some very specific details of plans. She pivoted to “politically correct” when it came to culturally contentious topics like trans rights, which I don’t love, but at least Walz stood on business on trans rights.

    To say Kamala spoke “gobbledygook” is objectively false, right wing propoganda.

    You verbatim speak like a right wing troll hyped up on low effort propoganda spreading horizontal hostility.

            You’re not paying attention to Bernie’s fighting the oligarchy tour or facts.

            One of his points on the tour is arguing for an increased minimum wage. Bernie does the opposite of ignoring it.

            @lemming: You’re the one with egg on their face in this conversation right now.

                The comments you directly ignored were specific to minimum wage.

                Do you think a country doesn’t have a right to self defense?

                Where’s the country you’re in, guessing they don’t deserve sovereignty either?

                That’s a very real conclusion that could be drawn from your statement.

                You’re still covered in schmutz, by smearing the dirty eggs in your face.

                You’re still ignoring the facts, and trying to push buttons.

                There’s no point with a goalpost moving liar.

            Because your question spam was just a distraction from the original point that "you said something very stupid and nonsensical*, and I called you out on it. Rather than accept any kind of accountability for yourself, you made a desperate bid to take the conversation literally anywhere else.

            You aren’t a real person, 100% of your Lemmy comment history is “I hate Democrats and Bernie” political brainrot trolling. Real people have human personalities and hobbies. You’re an empty shell.
