Bernie Sanders Is Right About The 2024 Election
The Democrats have abandoned the working class, and now the working class strikes back.
I just wrote a piece about the many reasons why Kamala Harris lost the election to Donald Trump, and one thing I keep touching on—or battering home—is the Democratic Party’s failure, and the left’s failure, to prioritize working class people over of big business, the war machine, and elitist identity politics.
And just after I posted this, I saw Bernie Sanders’ statement on the election, and decided I needed to post about it as well if only because I agree with him so entirely. “It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them,” he writes. “First it was the white working class, and now it is Latino and Black workers as well. While the Democratic leadership defends the status quo, the American people are angry and want change. And they’re right.”
Read the full statement below and let me know your thoughts in the comments.
it's not the Democrats. It's the unreasonable impatience of the American people who think Presidents and other lawmakers can wave a magic wand and just fix things instantly. It's also blaming the Federal Government for issues not being addressed at the State level. The poorest-least educated States are Red states, go figure.
Got it, Bernie. So they voted for someone who had the backing of the ultra-wealthy tech bros and billionaires all over the world, and who will further enrich anyone in the 1% while throwing a few breadcrumbs to the peasants, assuming they don't take away their healthcare.
Brilliant, Bernie. Tell us more.
