Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) joins Meet the Press to discuss his criticism of the Democratic Party and what’s next for Democrats after Kamala Harris’ projected loss.
Maybe he shoulda said a little more than that he was supporting the Dem ticket; maybe he shoulda bragged about what has gotten done, and what was intended, especially as he is in favor of much of it. Admittedly, he is in favor of those issues going further, but is also aware that things get done when everyone works together.
I like Sen. Sanders and all, but he gets Ralph Nader-y about Dems. Many times rightfully, but I hope he’s not criticizing the current administration or the Harris campaign. He could have helped more.

Hi Ali. In a way I agree. On the other hand think of it like him trying to lead the party more left, more proactive towards the needs of the people. Bernie fell in with Biden because Biden in the first two years agreed to fight for the lower incomes that Bernie championed. But when he wouldn’t challenge Manchin and Bernie did go to Manchin’s state and give a speech, which Manchin threw a fit over … Biden wanted Bernie to back off and wouldn’t push Manchin at all. That was a huge mistake. He could have brought Manchin to heal, but his time in the Senate in the heyday of cooperation made him not wanting to do it. That was his real problem, he couldn’t adjust to the current time, still thinking things were the way they were 30 years ago.
Biden hamstrung Bernie and as they both are the same age and companions from the Senate they can not criticize each other directly. See the problem? They are old frat brothers. Hugs
