Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) that the Democratic Party lacked a vision for the future.
Host Kristen Welker said, “Let’s talk about what you have called your oligarchy, and Alexandria Ocasio Cortez have been criss-crossing the country warning of an oligarchy. Senator you told the New York Times, ‘One of the aspects of this is to get people to get engaged in the political process and run as independents outside of the Democratic Party.’ As someone who twice ran in the Democratic presidential primary are you trying to strengthen the Democratic Party or Senator, are you trying to start a third party?”
Sanders said, we’re not trying to strengthen a third party. We are trying to strengthen the American democracy. Right now it’s extremely low. We are living, Kristen, in the richest country in the history of the world and yet you have one person, Mr. Musk, who owns more wealth than the bottom 53% of American households. That is insane. That is oligarchy on steroids. Meanwhile, we have 60% of our workers living paycheck to paycheck. We have the highest rate of childhood poverty of almost any major nation on earth and we have over 20% of seniors in America living on $15,000 a year or less. What the American people are saying is that they want, and what our tour was about is to say that they want an economy that works for all of us, and not just for Musk and other billionaires.”

Old Bernie the Red has stated one-half of the equation
that D’s lack a positive vision for the future of America (or our people, economy, or defenses) is certainly correct.
The REASON they lack this vision for our Future is because they’ve pretty much undercut, destroyed it.
“...why is it that when good Democrats such as Biden, Obama , or Bill Clinton were president, that these problems didn’t get resolved when Democrats were in charge?”
Possibly for the reason Obamacare didn’t get resolved when Republicans were in charge. It was great to have something that galvanized the great unwashed masses to get us to the polling booths. (Whatever happened to Obamacare, anyway?)
Dems need a high-powered telescope with a wide
angle eyepiece to find their long lost “vision.”
No they don’t. It’s just a future Americans don’t want.
Bernie is experiencing rejection.
…and the USAID money is gone
The old communist POS said what?
I find it interesting that a ‘man’ (not really sure) that has never produced anything of use in his life (and never will) can say anything that sentient beings will believe. Shove it, Burnie and get the back to some country that still believes in the never successful commie and socialism twins.
Yes, they do have one.
They have one but nobody wants what they’re offering.
Yo, Bernie. You can’t see what’s ahead of you when you’re looking out your rectum.
