Bernie's playing the long game. If he calls Biden corrupt and Biden wins the nomination he'd look stupid endorsing him.

Hillary Clinton on Bernie Sanders: "Nobody likes him, nobody wants to work with him...It's all just baloney and I feel so bad that people got sucked into it"https://t.co/bTnNjX8H0k

Well, right wing is pretty narrow and pretty far to the right already. Just look at Germany for instance: AFD is right-wing, but not far-right, that would be the NPD. However, there's a very substantial overlap between the two. In fact, right wing parties are most often far-right with some more centrist policies thrown in and with the most blatant racism, xenophobia and the like curbed down a notch to not face legal troubles or other kinds of backlash. And in that regard, I consider this the perfect description of the GOP right now.

As for the Democrats, they include pretty much everything that's on the left from the GOP, so everything from center-left to left wing. But the establishment Democrats are pretty much all centrists to center-right, even culturally for the most part (it just looks much more like left wing since it's left from the GOP) and they are those who have been shaping most of the party until now. Bernie, the squad, millennials and Gen Z however are for the most part way to the left of where the Democratic party is right now, and are trying to pull the party more and more to the left. And that pull will continue over the next years.

Ouch. Not the place, not the time, and definitely NOT the person who should be saying these things. Please stay out of the race Hillary.

But she did drop a truth bomb, and I wholeheartedly agree.

"I will say, however, that it's not only him, it's the culture around him. It's his leadership team. It's his prominent supporters. It's his online Bernie Bros and their relentless attacks on lots of his competitors, particularly the women. And I really hope people are paying attention to that because it should be worrisome that he has permitted this culture — not only permitted, [he] seems to really be very much supporting it. And I don't think we want to go down that road again where you campaign by insult and attack and maybe you try to get some distance from it, but you either don't know what your campaign and supporters are doing or you're just giving them a wink and you want them to go after Kamala [Harris] or after Elizabeth [Warren]. I think that that's a pattern that people should take into account when they make their decisions."

And thankfully, we have a living specimen proving this right in this thread.

Yeah, right. That's exactly why everybody flocked to get you elected, Hillary. Oh, wait...

Here's how it goes:
- Send a woman to attack Bernie baselessly
- He and his fan base defends Bernie
- Sexist bastards!
- rinse, repeat

Crooked Hillary and the not so native American aren't even using the correct labels to attack him. Bernie is a sexist? PUH LEASE. I have heard more credible criticism towards Bernie coming from the right. For real, someone like Tucker Carlson has put up better arguments against Bernie than these people. 

And she refuses to endorse anyone because "it's too early"... well you're basically endorsing anyone who's not Bernie, but you're either too dumb to see it or just plain crooked. 

Hillary Clinton still does not understand why she lost against the orange disaster. Or perhaps she does understand, and just doesn't want to take responsibility for the loss. That explains this excrement that she wrote.

Instead of blaming Bernie and his voters, maybe she should have campaigned better in the rust belt states, instead of expecting them to just be blue like always. She should have had the insight to do so when Bernie won in the primaries in those states. She should have done a better job campaigning, instead of that "her turn" nonsense, spouting the same corpdem rhetoric.

Not to be too harsh on her, because she did send someone else to do the job....

Cause not showing up and sending someone else shows real care for those people and their problems.

She was awful. Awful awful awful. Awful during he run against Obama with her fake cry and awful when she gave paid speeches to wall street. 

Bernie is too considerate. That's not going to work if you want to implement real change. You can't play nice with these guys. Obviously you don't want to be at a Trump level of dickishness but you've gotta at least have a backbone and stand up for what you think is right. 

PTSD of 2016 for me ha. Bernie is reminding me why I somewhat drifted away from him and moved onto other candidates after bowing to Clinton. It's tough to take him seriously when time and time again he just gives into the system. How would he stand up for himself as president if he gives into Biden this easily? Talk is talk...

And I just don't get it what the "controversy" was Bernie felt the need to apologize about in the first place.. So being a corrupt sleazeball is ok but calling it out is not? That's basically the message Bernie is giving. 

Obviously the Democrats are desperate to unite people, but the cold hard truth is that there is a growing number of people (predominantly young people) in the US of a more social Democrat bent (or at least more left-leaning independent like myself), who will never be on board with Neoliberal Centrism which is essentially what the mainstream Dems are. They are trying to reign in what has essentially become the US version of the Brits' Liberal Dems and Labor at this point under a single party banner. I just don't see it happening.
