4. Since the election he shits on good Democrats and makes excuses for Trump voters.

Claiming VP Harris and other Democrats “abandoned the working class” is garbage. It isn’t true - we’ve gone from the most pro-union administration to a GOP admin that eats union members for lunch.

The only way Bernie ‘resonates’ across party lines these days is for those gleeful MAGA Republicans who appreciate his help shitting on good Democrats. He’s great for them.

I supported him in primary 2016, but enough is enough. The last straw for me is when he called Planned Parenthood ‘establishment’ on the Rachel Maddow show. GARBAGE. Now look where we are w Reproductive Rights.

Again I’m glad yr enamored with him, but IMHO he’s been very destructive and toxic since the election.
