Today Bernie and Amy Goodman sat down together for a chat. This was a good discussion that put forth a lot of ideas about the way forward.
I was hesitant to post this diary because there is so much pain right now. I certainly did not want Trump as president and was truly shocked by the results. It was a great loss for all of us. At the same time, even though HRC was never a major symbol for me — I respect that she was for so many here. It is bad enough to have Trump, but for those who had such a huge stake in HRC’s presidency as a meaningful and personal event the pain has to be much deeper than just Trump. I am hurt for this country, but I know the wound is much deeper for many others here.
However, I think that this is an important discussion, and we need to continue to have these discussions. Therefore, I would encourage those of you who feel ready to watch the interview:
Bernie Sanders on Democracy Now!
Let’s go back to the 50 state strategy and win again!
