Isn't Donald Trump/GOP The Easy Response to Bernie's Neoprogressive Attacks on Democrats?

[Tom Rinaldo]

11. It's a huge mistake to conflate Sanders with Stein under one lable - ."neoprogressive"

Bernie consciously rejected the Green Party offer of a Presidential nomination. Stein campaigned against Hillary, Bernie campaigned for Hillary. While Sanders can be critical of the Democratic Party he does not now (and never has) "suggest that there is no difference between Democrats and Republicans."

It is extremely misleading to hold forth the views of a small minority of those who supported Sanders in the 2016 Democratic primaries as the views of the Senator himself, or of the vast majority of those who voted for him. Some say that Joe Biden's recent comments have not been "helpful", and that can be argued, but no one pretends that he suggests that "there is no difference between Democrats and Republicans" Sanders has a long track record in Congress fully consistent of functionally being a loyal member of the Democratic Caucus.
