Dems Like Leftism, Not Bernie Sanders

[JCanete]

311. Republicans fund democrats through all kinds of ways Garr. Trump has put money into the Clinton

foundation. Must have been because he's such a humanitarian.

So if that's what you've got its not a leg to stand on. For Buddy Rhoemer's part, who knows. Maybe that's his agenda...to sew doubt among democrats, but if that's his goal, I think its a poorly invested in one. Putting the most progressive ideas on the map is not a way to ultimately hurt the democratic party. Nor has it. Democrats are more and more on the same page when it comes to what we want.

As to his stated intentions, whether true or not, Rhoemer lamented that he has a real issue with money in politics on the Republican side of the aisle...that he believes its corrupted the whole system, and that that was his justification for supporting the efforts of The Young Turks. And...there are a few older generation republicans who do essentially believe in preserving democracy. Its worth taking his word with a healthy dose of salt, but TYT doesn't resort to Republican talking points. Their issues with democrats are not the same and they defend them against the bullshit Republican smears. And TYT is far less kind to Republicans. They dont white-wash anything the republcans do...they don't brush them under the rug, they don't falesly equivocate when it comes to who is on the take and to what degree.
