I have deliberately avoided the Bernie Wars.

165. The party did not require him to "come to their senses" about their own

platform.

Ignorant since you didn't know Single payer was a Democratic thing, didn't know that it was seriously discussed for decades. You think DU discussions from the 30's should be referenced, do you? Yup, it's a lie and it's based on willfully pretending facts and history don't exist.

I'm glad that you admit your error that humans in Washington were indeed doing the thing you explicitly said they were not in your previous post. They're still eye rolling right now, guess which elder, with 30 years in politics is also stating this bill has no chance of being enacted, get a fainting couch ready - Bernie!

What a nice quote, if only the credit wasn't of paramount importance here with the "Bernie is the alpha and omega on everything in the Democratic platform" crowd.

I'll leave you with a quote:

"Look, I have no illusions that under a Republican Senate and a very right-wing House and an extremely right-wing president of the United States, that suddenly we're going to see a Medicare-for-all, single-payer passed," he said recently, sitting in his Senate office. "You're not going to see it. That's obvious." - Bernie Sanders

When someone else said the same thing, people lost their minds and spewed a whole lot of hate. It's time for his acolytes to come to their senses, educate themselves and stop with the double standards and the constant ridiculousness.
