46. I see the con.

Sanders now admits he cannot pass M4A. He used this to attack the Democratic party for five years. He used it to con his supporters who were less informed. He knew all along it was a pipe dream and yet continued to use it to cause chaos in the Democratic primaries. He says now he would have to do it incrementally. Lower to 55, ect. Democrats already have that plan. He took the Democratic plan.

His staffer says a couple days ago, there is no way M4A wil be passed.

Yesterday AOC said, there is no way M4A will be passed and the best we can hope for is public option. Again, another plan the Democrats have already been working at getting.

Five years of attacks from Sanders while we all knew the con, and people buying it telling us that Sanders had good plans for the people. Five years people refused to listen and believe that there is no way those plans could be implemented, even though it was obvious. Five years of conning people.

And now they all own up, it was a lie. Not even serious. Had no plan because why bother doing the work when you already know it won't happen. Why figure out the cost when you know it will not happen.

This is Sanders.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
