I could probably find more but that's sufficient to prove that he has mentioned both Russia's interference and the Muslim ban and has done so on more than one occasion.

Of course I fully expect you to move the goal posts and claim he didn't do it soon enough, often enough, stridently enough etc.

It's really too bad you don't think it's important for our leaders to get in front of cameras. In my opinion when you combine calling out Trump at every opportunity in newspapers, on television, on social media as well as holding town halls and rallies to reach voters and disadvantaged groups that those efforts can indeed be defined as "fighting" and being part of the resistance.

But as always, your mileage will probably vary. I'm sure some people believe critiquing Senator Sanders' continued efforts to stop Trump on DU is every bit as valuable to the resistance.

Anyway I'm done digging up proof that your allegations about Bernie are wrong, this is an old game and I tired of it long ago. I have much better things to do with my time than waste it stating the obvious. Bernie is a part of the resistance and he's also a leader, you don't have to like it but he's out there every day fighting the good fight - pretending otherwise is ridiculous.

Bernie had it right in ways he couldn't tell us or didn't recognize	bucolic_frolic	Mar 2017	#62
The problem with Bernie is that he is not a Democrat? That's not the problem. It's an asset.	tecelote	Mar 2017	#64
What does that even mean?	NurseJackie	Mar 2017	#77

This is a fascinating survey - Bernie, Planned Parenthood and the ACA are all viewed favourably.	beam me up scottie	Mar 2017	#84
Indeed.	ismnotwasm	Mar 2017	#99
I am SO glad you agree. I look forward to seeing your continued support for Bernie's efforts.	beam me up scottie	Mar 2017	#105
Really?	ismnotwasm	Mar 2017	#138
Yes, really.	beam me up scottie	Mar 2017	#140

It's a skewed Fox survey....why would anyone put any credence in a poll/survey...	George II	Mar 2017	#130
Can you point out how it was 'skewed' and explain how their methodology was faulty?	beam me up scottie	Mar 2017	#134
I already did.	George II	Mar 2017	#141
No, you didn't. You said you don't like the way they chose the categories.	beam me up scottie	Mar 2017	#142
Don't need the English lesson, thank you.	George II	Mar 2017	#146
I reviewed the survey more than once and I still don't see the bias.	beam me up scottie	Mar 2017	#153
FIRST example of bias is that only white politicians were included in the survey. Second example...	George II	Mar 2017	#292
It's a shame that the clickbait WaPo headline	lapucelle	Mar 2017	#179

If you read the actual poll, popularity is neither	lapucelle	Mar 2017	#199
As I said I've read it more than once and I still don't see how this is a bad thing.	beam me up scottie	Mar 2017	#209
I'm not concerned about the poll or its findings.	lapucelle	Mar 2017	#220
Well then you should take that up with WaPo.	beam me up scottie	Mar 2017	#225
I'm always writing to the public editors of both WaPo and the NYT.	lapucelle	Mar 2017	#229
Unfortunately the "findings" of that survey are centered around a very tiny sampling of politicians.	George II	Mar 2017	#301
