“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,” Sanders said.
“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.”
“Will the big money interests and well-paid consultants who control the Democratic Party learn any real lessons from this disastrous campaign?” Sanders asked.
“Will they understand the pain and political alienation that tens of millions of Americans are experiencing? Do they have any ideas as to how we can take on the increasingly powerful Oligarchy which has so much economic and political power? Probably not.”
My guy, Biden blocked a railroad workers strike because it endangered corporate interests, and he didn’t give them a key piece they were asking for: paid sick leave.
Not trying to be rude, the media cycle buried that result.
The unions got the sick leave, after the media reported the strike ended without it.
It was accomplished a couple weeks later, if I recall correctly.

4, not the 7 they wanted or deserved. he doesn’t get any credit for this. he broke the strike weakening their position.
I’m partially agreeing, I want to point out that they did get 7 days allotted.
Not all 7 of those are from sick time, so you’ve got a point.
I find it a reach to say the administration gets no credit when it’s definitely been assigned to them on multiple fronts for the effort.
Congress was involved here too. Do you think our president should be a despot?
Were you directly involved in negotiations?
The people who were directly involved, gave the Biden administration credit for an assist.
Dig deeper the people who gave credit were the same members who didn’t support the strike in the first place. iirc.
I blame everyone involved who voted to break the strike. don’t try to assert for me things I havent asserted.
So you don’t acknowledge when you’re wrong, and will continue to move goalposts. You’re taking a defensive posture.
It’s becoming clear now.
You’re a bad faith actor.
You’re of course welcome to continue believing that. Thats of course your prerogative. But I’m just going to point to the results since they speak for themselves.
Harris is missing 20million votes. You were warned and decided that arguing with me about the lesser evil ‘optimal voting strategy’ than realizing the danger harris was putting you in was a good idea. 👍 Good job. Now go convince those 20million other individuals since you’ve failed here.
You know what they say, you can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make them drink. (I know you struggle with analogies, you’re the 🐴)
Yes please, tell us how marxists and leninists will save humanity and not be the same as it ever was and always has been.
😂 never once have i mentioned them. Seek help you’re arguing with ghosts.
