If polls show that a candidate is pulling in more affluent and highly-educated people, what's wrong with actually saying that to voters who might be on the fence?
Biden and Buttigieg should just join the same ticket and then no one will have to worry about all this.Moving on

I'm a huge Bernie supporter, so I follow a lot of his other supporters. I haven't seen a ton of Sanders' "[wild] lashing." Nor have I seen Bernie bros disparaging other candidates.
What I have seen is people being mad about 2016 Bernie bros. Maybe there's a story there.

Lots to like here, but, like much of her campaign's Medium-post policy making, this Warren plan is more sizzle than steak
I’m finding that quality of Warren’s plans quite vexing, as her supporters point to her PLANS above all
A (sorry long) #GND thread:

First, I’ve compared Sanders & Warren’s GND before, on the fed investments they were planning to put into combatting the climate crisis
It’s a bit out of date (back in Oct, she was proposing less $$ than John Delaney!), but here are those thoughts:

Some Warren folk are quick to dismiss Sander’s $16T plan as “Bernie’s 7 min abs” (dogsh!t line recycled from HRC) or just a ruse to "outflank" others
The size *is* important, but it’s not worth losing sight of what’s really at stake: investments DO stuff

So when thinking about Bernie Sanders policies, many of us typically think about how they will benefit us as a nation. But I want you all to do me a favor: think DEEPLY about how his policies will directly affect your life in the here and now. How would
So when thinking about Bernie Sanders policies, many of us typically think about how they will benefit us as a nation. But I want you all to do me a favor: think DEEPLY about how his policies will directly affect your life in the here and now. How would
tuition free public college or trade school affect you? This tax that you would pay in the form of tuition would be eliminated thus saving you THOUSANDS of dollars and getting an education. You would never have to go into debt to pay it back. What about those of you who already
went to college? How would you fair financially if suddenly you didn't have to pay your student loan debt tomorrow or ever again? What if you could use that money to save for a house or start a business? How about saving for a vacation or buying something you want like a camera?
The American people are sick and tired of politicians who support a Medicare for All, single-payer system one day and use GOP talking points against it the day after receiving huge campaign contributions from insurance and drug company executives. Here are the facts. Thread
Fact: Bernie’s Medicare for All bill gives everyone the freedom to choose their own doctor, hospital & dentist with no premiums, co-payments or deductibles
Pete's plan doesn't give Americans the freedom to choose doctors who aren't in-network & doesn't eliminate those expenses.

Fact: Bernie’s bill expands Medicare to include:
- Dental
- Vision &
- Hearing
Pete’s plan does not. It provides zero help to the:
- 65% of seniors
- 34% of working-age Americans and
- 10% of children
who have NO dental coverage.

There are over 10,000 volunteers who participate on special teams on the Bernie campaign and Bernie appreciates every one of them. Another reason I'm excited for #PresidentSanders in 2020.
Sign up to join these wonderful people! berniesanders.com/volunteer
H/t @bhaviklathia whose idea it was to ask Bernie to record a thank you video for all the dedicated special team volunteers.
