Bernie Sanders has relied on a narrow but fervent group of supporters to become an unexpected frontrunner in the Democratic presidential primary.

But to capture the party’s nomination, he’ll need to win over more than his diehard loyalists. hrld.us/3bue5je

A thread w/ #Bernie's excellent interviews today.
#Bernie2020 #NotMeUs #NHprimary2020

"If you do, as Mayor Buttigieg does, take huge amounts of contributors from pharma CEOs, fossil fuel financiers, insurance, Wall St, does anyone seriously believe you will stand up to them?"
Chris Wallace makes the case for Pete Buttigieg.

Sanders - "Do you think when the CEO's of the major drug companies contribute to your campaign, you will take them on? Common sense suggests ... you will not effectively represent working families." #NotMeUs #NHprimary2020
"How do you overcome the #socialist label?," Chris asks.

"In many respects, we are a socialist society today ... The difference between my socialism and Trump's socialism is I believe that government should help working families, not billionaires." #BernieBeatsTrump #Bernie2020

#BERNIE SANDERS = THE MORAL CHOICE FOR PRESIDENT

It's been a long journey to reach that conclusion. Please hear me out.

My journey started in Beirut, where I grew up in a brutal civil war. Violence and injustice everywhere.

But today's America alarms me more than Beirut...
BERNIE SANDERS = THE MORAL CHOICE

In America today, children are stolen from their parents, locked in freezers, caged, gunned down in schools.

Billionaires get richer while children go hungry, homeless, and without healthcare.

A society that brutalizes children is BROKEN...
BERNIE SANDERS = THE MORAL CHOICE

When I quit my music career to become an anti-Bush activist at the turn of the millennium, it stunned me to see the Democratic Party, my party, largely go along with Bush's assault on civil liberties. Torture. War based on lies. Patriot Act...

Bernie's Electability: A Thread

Progressive, centrist, left or liberal: we all want Trump out. If beating Trump is your #1 goal, vote for Bernie Sanders. Here's why:

1.
No. of Primary contests won by Biden: 0 (4 Attempts)
No. of Primary contests won by Sanders: 23 (1 Attempt)
2.
Number of elections won by Elizabeth Warren: 2
Number of elections won by Amy Klobuchar: 3

Number of elections won by Bernie Sanders: 15

That's 3x Warren and Klobuchar combined
3.
Every time Bernie ran for Mayor of Burlington, he increased his share of the vote:

1981: 43.4%
1983: 52.1%
1985: 56.1%

One exception is 1987: 55.9%*

*Note: he beat Paul Lafayette, a candidate endorsed, funded & supported by both Democrats and Republicans to boot Bernie out

1 The current #Ukrainian #ambassador Bill Taylor called #Democratic #Presidential Candidate and former Vice President Joe #Biden a
“MAN Of INTRGRITY,” he had issues w/accepting the job due 2 @RudyGiuliani involvement.

Let’s review the secret #ImpeachmentHoax @realDonaldTrump
2 #HouseIntelligenceCommittee Chairman & #DeepState hack #AdamSchiff wasn’t able 2 get the former top envoy Ukraine Kurt Volker to admit 2 a #QuidProQuo no matter how many leading questions #Schiff asked. Ex-UkraineEnvoyTestifiedHeWas"Never Asked2DoAnything"He ThoughtWasWrong”
3 The exchange between #Schiff and #Volker leaked to the Washington Examiner & published Wed Oct 6 2019 re: the quid pro quo shows the extent to which Schiff was willing to go to get the answer he wanted & was unsuccessful bc he was basically asking the witness to lie.

This is a seriously odd story.
Glad he's okay.
It takes a big wound to require 7 stitches.
Did he fall THROUGH the shower door?
(I have the poverty level curtain, so I can't imagine a shower door.)

Sanders cuts head on shower door, receives 7 stitches politi.co/2HoxhTP
Remember when Hillary had a cough and Donna Brazile wrote in her book that she was going to replace Hillary with Joe Biden and no one thought that was the craziest freaking thing they ever heard because trashing Hillary was a national pastime?
It's 24hrs since #Bernie told his "I walked into a door" story about his head wound, for which he has this huge bandage, and I seem to be the only journalist in America asking about it.

If this were a woman, we wouldn't believe her story, just as I don't believe Bernie's story.
