Bernie Sanders stumps for Biden: ‘He’s going to win’
The Hill ^ | 09/03/23 12:15 PM ET | BY SARAH FORTINSKY -

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) on Sunday touted President Biden’s accomplishments and stressed his confidence in the president’s ability to win reelection, as long as he runs on a strong progressive platform.

In an interview on CBS News’s “Face the Nation,” Sanders stressed what he saw as the importance of running on a “strong” and “progressive agenda” and said if Democrats do so, it could guarantee that wing of the party will back Biden.

Sanders touted raising Social Security benefits, expanding Medicare and dealing with student debt as areas of priorities for his wing of the party.

“If we come up with a progressive agenda, I think we’re going to win and win big and when we win big, we have to make it clear that we stand with the working class of this country against the kind of corporate greed that we now see,” Sanders said.

On whether Sanders would consider a 2024 presidential run, if, for any reason, Biden decided not to seek or win the nomination, Sanders declined to answer the question directly.

“Well, I think we spend too much time speculating,” he said in response. “I think President Biden is going to be the nominee of the Democratic Party. And I think if he runs on a strong, progressive agenda, he’s not only going to win, he’s going to win by a strong vote, and I’ll tell you why.”

My guess:

Old days: The usual campaign bluster.
Now: Evidence of insider knowledge.

How to sell out to the Party.

Bernie got his piece of the pie in government money and leftist contributions, by being a socialist and never worked for it.

How can the people of Vermont be so stupid to elect this dumba$$ commie fossil?

He has been briefed by the communist party. Just like Katy Hobbs was. No need to campaign if you already know the outcome.

People of VT must be incredibly stupid people. I know, we elect RINOs down south, but come on, they keep electing a commie? Give me a break!

RE: What does Sanders know? The fix is in?

We may as well save time and money by just asking Soros the exact vote count, electoral college count and winner.

Like Johnny Carson’s Carnac the Magnificent, Soros and Sanders know it now.

In other words, Bernie has either been bribed by FJB’s mafia guys-maybe they gifted him with another dacha on a lake-or they have promised to break both his legs if he tries to run for pres again-so he is campaigning for FJB and keeping his legs uninjured...

I recall Nanzi stating very confidently that Trump wouldn’t win in 2020. Must be something in the DC water....

Translation: we already have enough fraudulent ballots, made up to Ensure a win.

This is what communists do… And then they brag about it.

Yep—another no talent, coupon clipping public servant turned millionaire. Bernie went into politics to do some good—turns out he’s done very well indeed.

Who can say what’s in those thousand-page appropriation bills? They could sneak a lot of sugar in for one of Bernie’s friends, and we’d never know.

But Bernie and his friends would know.

Is it going to be 101 million votes as opposed to 81 million the last time out?

***************

Sanders missed a certain narrative that is prevalent on Free Republic: That the democrats are going to replace Biden with someone else.

“Time’s a Wasting.”

FJB is not running — not really — and he’s not going to run — really.

Old Bernie knows a “strong progressive agenda” when he sees on. Free money like having the taxpayers pay your student loan bills and make everyone on the planet with black skin a millionaire. It’s just a coincidence that your banana boat ballot tally increases at the same time. sarc/

“What does Sanders know? The fix is in?”
I don’t know which is more ridiculous, comrade Bernie’s fund raiser boast or this trolls “quaking in his boots” “the fix is in?”
First Joey will not be the rodent nominee - even if they have to use physical violence he will be removed from the equation.
Next this is clearly a fund raiser remark to wring money out of the rodents’ swindling base, and finally when Joey is impeached probably in December to gain maximum value from it, the Senate rodents will be too busy trying to decide how they can get away with voting NO.
The voter fraud problem may already be fixed or didn’t the Republicans take back the House?
