Bernie Sanders’s Long Career

Bernie Sanders’s Long Career
Excerpt: Some of the Democrats who are most worried about nominating Bernie Sanders right now will bury their doubts and objections down deep and insist that anyone who isn’t on board is some sort of unthinking lunatic, or that not being a Sanders supporter must reflect a complete endorsement of everything Donald Trump has done as president. One of the arguments you are certain to hear in defense of Sanders, when others criticize his past stances and statements, is a variation of: “Why are you bringing up all this ancient history?” The correct answer is: “Because you guys nominated an ancient candidate. You notice nobody’s talking about what Pete Buttigieg did in the 1980s.” [Geraghty then proceeds to list a quick 15+ times Bernie has made idiotic statements to the press or participated in what can fairly be called “un-American activities.” No matter who wins the Dem nomination, the up-coming election will be brutal and no-holds-barred. Hold on to your hats, folks, the ride will be bumpy. Ron P.]
