Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) held a massive rally in Chicago, Illinois, on Saturday, drawing thousands of supporters and telling them that President Trump is “moving this country into an autocracy.”
...
Sanders told that crowd that, in order to defeat President Trump in November, Democrats will need the largest voter turnout in the history of America.
“That turnout looks like Grand Park today,” he said.
Sanders described the president, as he has in past stump speeches, as a “pathological liar” and accused him of “moving this country into an autocracy.”
While Sanders told supporters that he and his opponent, Joe Biden (D) are “friends,” he said they have different vision and records, citing the former vice president’s past positions on the Iraq War, trade agreements, and Social Security, as well as his support from super PACs and billionaires.
Despite that, Sanders said Democrats will get behind the eventual nominee because the differences between those within the party are “far, far less” than the differences with this “dangerous” president.
Sanders also touted his ultra-progressive positions, including his “100 percent pro-choice” voting record, promising to never appoint a judge who is not “100 percent pro-Roe v. Wade.” He also promised to “expand” funding for Planned Parenthood.
The Vermont senator also harped on climate change — one of the central issues of his campaign.
“Instead of spending $1.8 trillion a year on weapons of destruction designed to kill each other, maybe we should pool our resources and fight our common enemy, which is climate change,” he said, prompting chants of “Bernie.”
Sanders added that he is prepared to take on the “whole damn one percent.”

“moving this country into an autocracy.”
What does that even mean?
So much for going after his good friend primary opponent.
Lol no kidding. Pot, meet Kettle.
For a dictator, Trump is pretty subpar. A good dictator would have gotten rid of the opposition, put up the wall, deported every illegal, arrested every sanctuary city traitor, and the majority of the last administration would be in jail.
Trump is as good a dictator as he is a racist.
20-30% of Trump’s crowds are Democrats. Wonder how many of Bernies were Republicans?
“moving this country into an autocracy.”
It means only cars can vote.
Heck Trump has more people outside his rallies and Biden just draws flies. YAWN.
“””””””“moving this country into an autocracy.”

It means Bernie is nuts, Jim.
Poor old commie Bernie.. He apparently missed the memo concerning the necessary target of his attacks over the next couple months. Running against Trump is stupid and pointless at this stage. If he’s unwilling to hit Biden hard, he’s toast. It’s over for him.
Thanks for the post...”Know thine Enemies”
Obama prosecuted more “journalists” than all previous presidents combined.

Trump has prosecuted zero “journalists.”
Turmp is a pretty poor dictator, if you ask me.
What musical group drew the other 14,999 people?

Does my Ram 2500 get 2 votes?
