Don’t get too excited, she’s not running this time as far as I know and this quote (see video below) is from 2016.
Can we please end that talking point for good? You know, the one about Bernie Sanders not doing enough supporting/endorsing/campaigning for Hillary in 2016? I hate bringing up 2016 but I’m not bringing it up. It’s being used as an attack line against Bernie in 2020 (see video) and it’s just not right. Bernie Sanders did more for Hillary Clinton in 2016 than could ever be expected of any former primary opponent.
Watch the short video below. Bernie lost a lot of supporters over this. A lot of Berners were furious at him for campaigning for Hillary as hard as he did. Some of you reading this know some of them from Daily Kos but they’ve since been purged. Bernie knew he would lose supporters but he did it anyway.
Go ahead and keep throwing the “He’s not a Democrat” talking point around because it’s technically true but he made a deal with the Democratic Party and he held up his end. Even after the way they treated him he kept his word to the Democrats.
Please let the “he didn’t do enough to help Hillary” talking point die.
