Bernie Sanders: Guns In Vermont Are Not The Same As Guns In Chicago Or Los Angeles [View all]

[TomCADem]

Given Bernie's success in making right wing ideas sound progressive, perhaps he can run in California with the following quote. In 2016, the more racist Trump got, the more Trump would win. This time around, the more Bernie runs against core Democratic principles like a free media or gun control, the more he will win.

BERNIE SANDERS, VERMONT SENATOR: I come from a state where there is virtually no gun control. But the people of my state understand, pretty clearly, that guns in Vermont are not the same thing as guns in Chicago or Los Angeles. In our state, guns are used for hunting. In Chicago they are used for kids killing other kids or gang members shooting at police officers, shooting down innocent people. We need a sensible debate about gun control, which overcomes the cultural divide that exists in this country, and I think I can play an important role in this.
