IF

If you want to defeat Trump and you're fighting to stop #Bernie.

If you're in the party leadership and fighting to stop Bernie.

If you're a mainstream pundit and fighting to stop Bernie...

You're out of step with the majority of Democratic voters.
"Plurality" for the super literal.

The point stands: Democratic voters believe #BernieBeatsTrump more than any other candidate.

We're at the point where bashing Sanders is defying the will of millions of Dem voters.
And you can factor in that #Bernie is the second choice leader among Dems, with the highest favorability.

I'M SAYING IT

The Democratic leadership is fighting harder to stop #Bernie than to stop Trump.

DEPLORABLE
BUT:

Don't be discouraged.

Don't be deterred.

Don't be afraid.

Organize. Vote. Speak out.

#SuperTuesday
This is so true. Imagine Dems fighting Bush, Cheney, McConnell, Miller, and Trump with this level of vigor and strategy.

THREAD: DEM CROSSROADS — YOU PICK A DIRECTION

2020 is a major inflection point in American politics:

The Democratic Party is poised to become either a party of the people or a party of big money and GOP appeasement.

Which path do YOU choose?

Follow the facts & the money...
THREAD: DEM CROSSROADS (2)

First, let's get something out of the way:

The GOP is a rightwing extremist party, a threat to democracy.

But that doesn't give Dem leaders a free pass. It's our DUTY to hold politicians accountable. Unthinking party loyalty is a path to tyranny...
THREAD: DEM CROSSROADS (3)

If your overarching objective is to defeat Trump, let's see how we got here in the first place:

When Bush-Cheney launched a brutal war based on lies to open this century, most Dem leaders went right along — the same Dems in leadership roles today...

Partying with Trump cronies.

THAT IS THE DEFINITION OF "ESTABLISHMENT"

@leeladaou and I are advising progressive congressional candidates running against entrenched Dem politicians. Here are examples of those establishment Dems cozying up to Trump cronies....👇🏽
While Trump spewed hate and racism, @RepMaloney partied with his accomplices.

While Trump incited white supremacist violence and #MitchMcConnell provided senatorial cover, @RepTomSuozzi hung out with McConnell at an AEI luxury gathering.

5am thoughts: One of the challenges for men in #leadership positions in #tech who want to increase #inclusion and #diversity in our orgs, is that first we need to first recognize our own #privilege before knowing what conscious actions to take in our orgs & company-wide... 1/14
First, credit to my colleague @bjohnso5y. Her post on how to be a better #ally for #womenintech emphasized the mechanism of #recognition (e.g. crediting women for their ideas in public spaces). The goal of better #allyship inspired this thread... 2/14

In the sphere of political debate, you’ll often hear white people (especially men) arguing they don’t have privilege and don’t get special treatment. "Everything’s a meritocracy!" "Nobody 'gave' me anything!" - Nothing to see here, move along… 3/14

So #Trump is holding a news conference in about five minutes. I’ll be watching (and probably tweeting). Follow/mute at will!
Okay, #Trump has started speaking. He's already slurring. He's already made a joke about "a lot of......MEDIA.".

This does not bode well.
#Trump is now saying that China wants to "see me lose an election because they've never been challenged before."

It's not just China, pal.

Clearly with John, empathy only goes one way. @realDonaldTrump has lowered unemployment for Blacks to the lowest levels "ever." He is fighting to stop uncontrolled & illegal immigration that destroys Black employment opportunities, lowers wages, & results in a $500 Billion 1/
2/ transfer of wealth to the Upper Class.
3/ That's a $500 Billion Tranfer of wealth to the Upper Class annually -- "each year we allow this to continue!"
