The political class needs to recognize that it has lost this round. And it has lost it because it deserves to lose; it does not have the truth of justice or moral clarity on its side. Time to come the table and say, “Okay, let’s deal.” Nothing short of that will fix this.

No person of goodwill on either the right or left supports those who perpetrate violence. But the protests themselves are not based on violence; they are based on an appropriate demand for justice.

I agree. Perhaps it’s less about listening now, and more about doing something significant about the things we’ve already heard.

Y’all don’t even have demands, how can there be a deal?

Establishment politicians should tell their owners, they are watching rebellion from the working class after the ruling class took everything away, they have nothing left to lose: jobs, means to feed their families, health care, civil liberties; cast them to a lifetime of debt.

Yes, and the deal has to be " Bernie is the nominee." We get #MedciareForAll, #GND and no more wars. We need to invest in our people, our communities, globally we need to invest in fighting climate change alongside other countries.

We could call in an air strike.

You think the same people who are Pre-emptively blaming #Bernie supporters for a potential loss on election day would ever admit defeat? I envy your optimism.

I think we have to figure out who we're actually dealing with. These aren't just local people protesting racism. There's much more going on.
