I am sick of the purity test. I am sick of the fragmentation. I am sick of a group of individuals trying to take down anyone, no matter the consequences because they aren’t “progressive” enough. When these people are not actual democrats.
Democrats Reload for Georgia Runoff, But Party Divisions Remain
Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, in an interview Tuesday in Louisville, Ky., said he didn’t know much about Mr. Ossoff, a 30-year-old former House staffer. Mr. Sanders said he isn’t prepared to back Democrats just because of a party label.
“If you run as a Democrat, you’re a Democrat,” he said. “Some Democrats are progressive and some Democrats are not.”
Asked if Mr. Ossoff is a progressive, Mr. Sanders, an independent who challenged Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential primary, demurred. “I don’t know,” he said.
