In reply to the discussion: Bernie Sanders on Andrew Gillium and Stacey Abrams: Many Whites 'Uncomfortable' Voting for Black... [View all]Blue_Tires
(55,445 posts)Bernie Sanders has been on the *national* stage for three solid years now... Why does he remain so inept when it comes to winning PoC (aside from the college kids) over to his side?? Why does he still have chronic Foot-in-Mouth disease when discussing race? (Remember, this isn't the first offense from him and the people in his advisory circle). Why is he so obsessed with coddling Trump voters, as if they will somehow magically not be racist anymore and vote straight Dem if only the old toaster oven factory could came back to Iowa Falls? Why have no lessons been learned whatsoever??
Sanders has pretty much had the stage all to himself for TWO YEARS as a presumptive, likely-to-run candidate for 2020 and even with the universal public belief that he'd crush Trump (who has only gotten less popular) head-to-head, why does it feel like he's regressing instead of in the ascendancy?? Who the hell is advising him?
(And I voted for Sanders in the VA primary, so skip it...)
