Bernie to Dems: Change course before you nosedive in November

82. Well well. Bernie Sanders criticizing slogan politics

This kind of writing is why I avoid Politico. Are they really giving BERNIE puppet master status here?

[div class="excerpt"Still, Sanders isn’t exactly Berning it all down. He’s not calling for a primary challenge to Biden or weighing in on whether the president should run for reelection. But he is trying to enlist the president in his effort to nationalize the Senate and House races.

Biden has already embraced some of Sanders’ arguments. The president asked Americans alarmed by mass shootings to “turn your outrage into making this issue central to your vote,” advised voters to “elect more pro-choice senators” in May, noted in January that “48 of the 50 Democrats vote with me on everything” and said Democrats could come back with larger majorities next year to pass “Build Back Better.”

Sanders wants an even more sustained focus from Biden, advising him to say “I want to raise the minimum wage, I want to deal with Medicare, I want to deal with housing, I want to deal with climate, I can’t do it. I need more votes.” Sanders also is leaning on Biden to do as much as he can through executive action on those issues.]

Now I agree we are in trouble, but I don’t care much about Senator Sanders opinions at this point, although many others apparently think this is deep political analysis
