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”....

Can't have any of that independent minded thinking now.
He's not part of the hive that way.
JOY! And Donald Trump is a Nazi / fascist / Hitler / Mussolini (but not Mao or Stalin. Why is that I wonder?).
I suspect he’s whining about the 2024 election results so his supporters will ignore the uncomfortable truth that he sold out to those “big corporation” Democrats in three consecutive presidential election cycles.
Modern medicine.
Not that long ago these two octogenarians would be living out their years in a retirement home.
In this present time, the House, Senate, and even the White House has become a resting place for the senile and out of touch.
What is worse, Pelosi, Sanders, and Biden wield a lot of power in the Uniparty.
As they say the good die young, and Pelosi, Sanders, and Biden appear to validate that argument.
“what is Nancy Pelosi’s job right now?”
If I had to guess I’d say consigliere...
And I mean that in the most mobbed up way possible.
The DEMs abandoned the working class many years ago. But thanks to the perpetual lies of the DEM party and the MSM, many in the working class didn’t know that. May they be enlightened going forward.
Yes, the fact he may be right about this, doesn’t change the fact that he’s a hypocrite.
Those two should get a room.......preferably with padded walls
It wouldn’t normally occur to me to tell an 84yr.old
woman to STFU...but...

The fact that the DNC absolutely screwed the million dollar socialist over in 2016 in favor of cankles make me think whatever relationship he now has with democrats is nothing less than incestuous.
Her heart still belongs to Daddy.
FUNFACT:
JFK asked the FBI to ‘look into’ Pelosi’s dad, Thomas D’Alesandro Jr. for his connections to the Mob.

This is just delicious.
And this kind of salty doesn’t do anything to my blood pressure :)
Bernie has always been more truthful than Nancy.
She’ll never leave on her own, as much as she’d like to. She needs to stay around to make sure her corruption and treason won’t be exposed.
Workers of the world uniting? What’s the problem, Bernie?
It's like Victory.
Bernie identifying with the working class is a joke. He was never a member.
Pelosi likes the working class. It’s just that she doesn’t speak Spanish, even to say “Mow the damn lawn.”
