Many of the people yelling “Bernie could never beat Trump!” know in their hearts that maybe he could - but they themselves don’t want it so they’re just saying that. “He’s too extreme!” What an age we’re living in, that healthcare and education and justice for all seem “extreme.”

I mean, Trump is a donkey that once said that he would date his own daughter if she was not in fact his actual daughter. Bernie is total opposite of that. So he wins.

Its the misinformation spread by #Trump & the #GOP. Its policy not ideology. The Dems are not fighting hard enough against these propaganda & disinformation campaigns. Some people actually believe #Trump is fighting to protect healthcare, Medicaid etc..even as he guts them!!

Yes @keithellison and @berniesanders and @dnc won't lift a finger to stop @minnesotadfl from "removing" women from their #breastcancer treatment coverage--federal govt treatment through MA-BC--before they no longer need the cancer treatment. It's TOO extreme and reckless.

I realize that what I just said is going to attract an avalanche of negative FB from the Bernie Fans in your following. I might even inspire an argument from you. 😰 But look, Marianne. I grew up during VN and the Cold War too. I have my liberal views but I know others don't.

I think by looking at other Socalist countries poverty should be a bit of a clue. I'm not seeing a lot of refugees fleeing to Venezuela these days while the Socialist life style is so good there.

Many people don’t see him demonstrating Magnanimity. I’ve loved your insights and yes he can apologize fir his mistakes, but he’s not alone in that. So can others and it would help him to model that awareness. Trump wins the non-magnanimous award. The senator runs a close 2nd.
