The guy literally denounced a portion of his own base during the sexist Bernie Bro scandal, and has always encouraged the vote to go to the right candidate when he saw he couldn't win. Based as fuck.
Can't wait for the 7 other democratic senators (and 2 random republicans) to approve this while the rest of the DNC tells us to eat shit and vote Harris.
Imagine had this guy been elected in 2016 and re-elected instead of Biden.
Trump would have lost all relevancy. So much time & effort having to put up with platformed conspiracy theory nonsense. We wouldn’t be fighting for basic civil rights. It’s honesty depressing thinking about what could have been. I’ll never forgive HRC and the DNC for kneecapping Bernie
RuPaul's Drag Race winner Bob the Drag Queen's tweet about it...
Right there with you, Bob.

While I would hope that's the case, I firmly believe the GOP / russia would have doubled down on the misinformation that was already all over the place, and the ignorant on facebook and other social media still would have eaten that shit up. I think in the voters that mattered Bernie would have made a much bigger impression, and the policies he worked to pass would have been much more beneficial, but I don't think it would have been this magic situation where all the dumb people disappeared and the rich people stopped trying to get the dumb people to vote make them richer
I joined the Democratic party in 2016 just so that I could vote for Bernie in the primaries. Oh well.
Right?
Unwavering support in the UN, and almost a year with clear genocide and war crime case at the ICJ that both parties completely ignored. There no way this will go anywhere except if the sale includes sales to Ukraine which republican will work hard to stop from passing.
Then again Mr. I am a Zionist, will figure out ways to gave them the military aid they looking for.
He is still worthy
Bernie is, and always has been, The Man. In the good sense.
He’s my hero.
