11. I Don't Remember Bernie Naming Names Of Who The Establishment Is

Anyone point me to who the establishment is according to Bernie in a link?

He calls his fellow Senators friends when I hear him talk about them.

I assume Bernie is talking about the billionaires who stand on all our throats when he says the establishment.

And yes they lobby both parties for favors. $$$. More $$$. Then more $$$$$$$.

My 2 cents.

It takes a lot of courage to point out how bad it is.

Bernie and Elizabeth aren't the only ones.
