The charitable version is he is giving political cover to moderates voting for it.Bernie Sanders is an assclown. This is all we can get right now. Why badmouth the bill with GOP talking points?

This dumb piece of shit is making free ads for Republicans for the fall. He's always had shit political instincts but this is really special, even for him.
Stop defending this turd.do they need his help? if he doesn't give this speech, are they gonna come out and go "uh... we got nothing, enjoy your presidency biden"?
no! they have ads! they will have ads! it doesn't matter!
be glad he's not becoming Left Manchin and saying he won't vote for it, is what I say. because he could. he could go "this bill sucks and I refuse to vote for it" and kill it, if he wanted to. but he's not. he's giving his speech, which is basically just his stump speech, because all of his speeches are. everybody already knows. nobody's watching. nobody cares. the theoretical Bernie Sanders Attack Ads will not be the death of the democratic majority.
it's going to be ok.

Bernie Sanders: "We're primed for fascism in this country"
Also Bernie Sanders: "Let me give a speech that will help fascists get elected"

It is unkind to doubt the Independent paragon of virtue from Vermont.is Sanders being bribed by oil companies to try and tank this bill?
am I doing this right?
Everyone knows this is far from perfect, but take what you can get. Sanders' rant helps nobody here.

The day he said his plan to pass M4A was to have people march down Washington and pressure Mitch McConnell, I knewY'all really shouldn't be surprised that Bernie "Marched With King and That's All I Got" Sanders is like this.
Some of us knew it. Saw through the okey doke from Day 1.
And tried to tell yall.

His political instincts are just fucking dogshit.
Brings back memories of him being on the cusp of running away with the nomination in 2020 - and then deciding to publicly go to war with the "Democratic establishment" instead of trying to rally the party faithful behind him.
He genuinely thought they would allfight and split the vote. I've seen voters call their coalescing as "cheating."I'm sorry, WHAT? Barring Biden and like 4 other frontrunners dropping dead of a heart attack in the middle of the primaries, there was NEVER a chance in hell Sanders was getting the nom. Dems were always going to coalesce around a more moderate candidate, whoever that was.
I'm sure it's Nancy Pelosi's fault somehow.He genuinely thought they would allfight and split the vote. I've seen voters call their coalescing as "cheating."
Sanders was absolutely the front runner before South Carolina stopped him dead in his tracks. Biden performed like absolute ass in the early primaries and there wasn't anyone else doing much better.I'm sorry, WHAT?

In these primary races, if you start to build a string of victories, it can be really hard to derail you. Sanders was nearly there.

All the while saying Biden's too old 😂Are we still huffing "here's how Bernie can still win" copium in the year of our lord 2022
Why your only defense for him "...well at least he's not Machin!" you KNOW Sanders has done something very stupid...
Don't fundamentally disagree with this - Sanders was never winning over Black voters - but the problem was that before the Clyburn endorsement, it was very unclear who the Sanders alternative was going to be.Sanders was never there, because he never addressed his fatal flaw: Black folks seeing right through his bullshit and not giving a shit about him.
South Carolina was always destined to be his downfall.

In these primary races, if you start to build a string of victories, it can be really hard to derail you. Sanders was nearly there. And he fucked it up with an absolutely insane divide-and-conquer strategy that pissed everyone off instead of getting everyone behind him.

I mean he's telling the truth. That used to matter but I guess you prefer he spout bullshit?Oof, Bernie saying it's the "so-called Inflation Reduction Act," and that it will have a "minimal" impact on inflation.
He's a good guy and means well but has very little political skill.
Until December 31, 2032 (10 years).How long is the EV car credit? Like if I buy an EV in 2025 or 2026?
Is Insulin at 35$ in this?
So do you want Dems to actually fight and win?I mean he's telling the truth. That used to matter but I guess you prefer he spout bullshit?
This bill has absolutely nothing to do with inflation.
He thought he was gonna win by only keeping 30% of the voters.
LOL.
LMAO.

Cause that's not what Bernie is doing right now.
I want them to enact good policies that people want and then they will win. This bullshit ain't it and they deserve the bloodbath that's coming
He thought he was gonna win by only keeping 30% of the voters.
LOL.
LMAO.
I mean the truth is also that this bill is the single biggest investment in green energy in world history, but Sanders didn't bother mentioning that while dropping his set of truths in his pissy floor speech.I mean he's telling the truth. That used to matter but I guess you prefer he spout bullshit?
This bill has absolutely nothing to do with inflation.
