“Rather than insisting on “Medicare for All” - Sanders’ trademark universal, government-funded health care plan -or the climate-change-fighting Green New Deal, Our Revolution is focusing on the more modest alternatives endorsed by President Joe Biden.” 🤦🏻‍♀️ apnews.com/article/joe-biden…

Whatever it takes to get things done. Bernie is a very practical man.

Shame on @OurRevolution!! 😡 We WANT THE WHOLE #SinglePayer SYSTEM THIS TIME! No more 1/2 way measures like we were snookered into last time w/“ObamaINSURANCE”. #MedicareForAll #NoMiddleGround

We dont need pragmatic progressives, we need health care for all Americans. What the fuck?
Replying to @marwilliamson
Pragmatic progressives, realistic reformers,,whatever you want to call them there has been a dialing down of the enthusiasm, a shifting of the goal posts hoping to actually accomplish some meaningful legislation.
Replying to @marwilliamson
How do you water down M4A into a non-existent "public option" that Biden has (and likely will not) not followed through on? Biden and the Dem establishment will pay dearly at mid-terms for this one.
Replying to @marwilliamson
Dems will loose in the next cycle of elections. It’s a sorry state of affairs.
Replying to @marwilliamson
Once again, starting negotiations right of center, throwing progressives under the bus like usual. And then they will wonder why they get killed in the midterms
Replying to @marwilliamson
Bernie is accepting that ideology is one thing, and pushing for incremental change in a 50/50 congress is another. If we want big things, Democrats have to show up at midterms and get bigger margins.
