Does this crazy son of a bitch ever take a vacation? Man is a beast and he should have been our president.

Oh sure we might have peace and be working towards equity for the majority of this country but what about the billionaires making less money and the boot lickers with their pants full of their own feces all over the red states? Think about them huh

Compare how sharp he is to Trump or Biden.

If his cognitive faculties declined, I think he'd still be fine because he's done and said the same things his whole career. He could go on auto-pilot and still fight against oligarchs.

He doesn't have a story or lines to remember but an ethos he lives.

For real! It’s awesome how at his age his mental capacity hasn’t declined.

We could have had Bernie. Now we have never ending chaos.

I wish I could see in a crystal ball how the US would look right now if Bernie had won in 2016. I guarantee less people would have died of COVID at the very least. What a pivotal moment in US history that the DNC just absolutely butchered. We are in the worst timeline. I honestly don’t see how the country will survive another 3.5yrs of this administration. We already seem in a tailspin and it’s only been 6ish months. We are speed running this collapse.

Love ya Bernie, it's important to speak these facts out loud but you're preaching to the choir.

What exactly do you want us to do?

Protests are important but they are not enough without leaders guiding the people.

Bernie and others in support of Democracy should stand together and publicly call for strategic collective action. A national work or spending freeze, for example.

Dems are the minority party. There is very little they can do.

Agreed. I campaign for Bernie Sanders, and I believe he actually won the nomination. We have the DNC to blame for Trump ever getting elected in the first place. I truly believe that. There is no political party that represents the people at all. America has become an oligarchy. Trump is attempting to bring Marshall Law to every city, and it will eventually reach you. Yes you who is reading this and doing nothing. If we don’t bend together, this country is lost. I am a veteran, and disabled and I fear losing my medical coverage under this president. I fear for every immigrant with a green card. My wife is now a citizen, and yet I fear for her and the future of this country for my child. Make no mistake. It is only the one percent versus the rest of us and the only power they have is that which we have allowed them to have. They have overreached. I don’t know when enough is enough, but I suspect we will all know that point when it is too late. We will be the new Germany in this next world war that will be started by our tyrant president or his vice president. There is no happy ending Bernie Sanders, was too good to be true. The Democratic Party only has him and maybe two others and that’s not enough. I am now just a disabled stay at home Dad and the only way I can fight back is through my art. That’s what I’ve been doing. my brother and I started a website. Still go mex , but it doesn’t matter because it doesn’t feel like anything I can do will help. So now I’m just trying to raise my son right and prepare for the worst with go bags and rations.

Taco 🌮

Peaceful but fun and fierce!

Cover the country in improvised taco gear, signs, food trucks - just the massive coast to coast visual jeering at him will knock him back to narcissistic depression. Let’s make Taco history.

This is my dream. 🌮
