Bernie Sanders ruined his brand by running in 2020. His commitment should have been to the issues, not his own ego. He could have supported Elizabeth Warren, but instead he did everything possible to tank her campaign, which was exponentially better than his. Misogynist as 2016.
Bernie had tons of money and he still lost to Biden. He never made an effort to work with the black community like Biden, the LGBTQ community or women. He ran a terrible campaign and his core team, who all proudly voted Trump proxy in 2016, continually abused people online.
The casualty is not Bernie but progressive issues that have never been more critical. Sadly, while Bernie goes off to write another book at his lake house, poor Americans who desperately needed the policies Warren offered & Bernie paid lip service to will suffer. Yes, I'm angry.
And don't @ me. I'm poor, disabled & my mixed race lesbian family deserved better. I hope Biden acknowledges the massive number of voters who chose Bernie & Warren and makes an effort to address those concerns. Bernie never got past the rhetoric to real people like Warren did.
