Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi tore into Sen. Bernie Sanders who had derided the Democratic Party and its alleged issues with the working class that ultimately failed to support Vice President Kamala Harris in her bid for the White House.
In a scathing letter to his former party a day after the election, Sanders blasted the Dems for “abandoning” the working class and seemingly acting surprised they didn’t show up at the polling booths.
“It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them,” the Democratic socialist, 83, said in a fiery statement on X.
“First, it was the white working class, and now it is Latino and Black workers as well. While the Democratic leadership defends the status quo, the American people are angry and want change. And they’re right,” the Democratic Socialist said.
Pelosi didn’t take kindly to the Vermont independent senator’s remarks, rebutting Sander’s claim and doubling down that the Democratic Party didn’t abandon the working class.
“I have a great deal of respect for him, for what he stands for, but I don’t respect him saying that the Democratic Party has abandoned the working-class families. That’s where we are,” the 84-year-old California Rep. told the New York Times podcast “The Interview.”
Pelosi was pressured to reveal what went wrong in Harris’ campaign, but could not admit it was the vice president’s fault for losing the presidential election to Donald Trump.
“Well, I just completely disagree. And, in fact, Kamala Harris ran ahead of Bernie Sanders in Vermont,” Pelosi told the podcast.

Bernie Sanders is a left wing radical from New York City. There were thousands like him back in the 1960’s. Too bad they ruined a nice State like Vermont.
Biden was neutralized and Harris lost because the elitist investment portfolios were about to crash. This is just theatrics.
Sanders is right and Pelosi’s attitude is exactly why the ;eft will continue to lose.
This sounds like a mob boss calling a hit on a rival mobster.
Isn’t it delicioussss? Almost makes you want slather your lips 💋. Like Nancy doessss.
Democrats represent the delusional class... It’s all they have
Like father like daughter. Sounds like Nancy is about to have a nervous breakdown. Wouldn’t it be great if she becomes collateral damage?
The truth hurts, doesn’t it Nancy?
Something you avoid religiously - the truth.
Democrats need to put their old heifer out to pasture with the old bulls.
If I had to choose between Bernie Sanders, and obnoxious communist, or the Wicked Witch of the West, I think I would choose the obnoxious communist. Nancy Pelosi is a vicious, thoroughly evil, self-aborbed, arrogant, corrupt, pustule in the rectum of the American Body Politic.
You radical. See. All the cool rebels are Conservative now. It’s true. Lmfao
?????
We are Bernie bros. Who would have thunk it. If Trump gives him something to do, it frees up a Senate seat. Governor elect of Vermont is Republican Phil Scott. Go figure.
That is really funny. Two of the biggest slime bags in Washington mad at each other. Pelosi doesn’t respect Sanders!
Nancy has never worked a day in he life so working class what’s that
Opposing a SECURE BORDER is abandoning the Working Class. The Democrats used to know that, Bill Clinton ran on it, but Bush Jr. jettisoned it, due to his love of their culture and making his donors wealthy.
The Democrats then saw many millions of new voters, who almost all voted for them - and started salivating over a third captive voting group (after blacks and Jews). Bernie did NOTHING to stop them, and totally supported them - he’s being a dick now.
Epilogue: When the Democrats started Grooming the children of Hispanics, they decided being captive wasn’t so hot anymore, and so Biden’s bunch had fly-in millions from Haiti, Africa, and China to continue their ‘revolution’.
Maybe she should write down what Bernie said so she care rip it into shreds like Trump’s State of the Union address. That’ll fix him!
Yes, but if there is one thing that these people cannot stand, it is the truth.
What does Bernie know about the Proletariat?
