In reply to the discussion: Bernie Sanders needs to sail off into the sunset [View all]LiberalLovinLug
(14,682 posts)He very rarely spends time on critiquing the Democratic Party as a whole. And usually its because of a baited question from a reporter wanting the drama. Also, most of those critiques were at the time of the primaries, where it is perfectly justified, in fact normal, for a candidate to say how he would improve things. But today, he is working hard with them to help push there policies and to fight Trump.
Its just that whenever he does say something critical, constructively I'm sure in his mind, it gets front page here, and is pounced upon by a select but loud group. Some here are willing to throw away all the independent voters, the young voters, the more left of the party voters, just to spurn the man. And I'm not going to suggest there is a double standard in here, but I will keep my opinion of the reason for this to myself.
