Bernie Sanders’ Artful Slow Fade
Sanders has started rhetorically phasing himself out of the race, while shifting focus to other goals
Bernie Sanders’ Artful Slow Fade | Rolling Stone
Goal that apparently don’t include supporting the Democratic nominee for President.
…Which should be a shock to no one.
Bernie may have run for the Democratic Party nomination but he is not a member of the Democratic Party. He is an independent through and through. He’s not a Party member, he’s not going to make compromises to line up in support of his own side. He’s not the least bit of a team player and he never has been. With that in mind, the absolute best case possible scenario is for his team-sabotaging, Nader ass to go back to Vermont and shut the fuck up.
