    It makes sense to support him back then when Sanders was in his fifties.

    Only thing I’m pissed off about with Sanders if he never spent the time to build a movement, it’s him, AOC and like two potential house representatives when he should have scores of candidates in his party.

      Thats basically what he’s been doing since his failed bid.

      You have AOC, Rashid Tlaib, Ilhan Omar, Ro Khanna, Pramila Japayapal, and Mamdani.

      Plus an explosion in membership for the DSA, as well as groups like More Perfect Union, and his Fighting Oligarchy tour.

      There’s a reason he tells people they are the change we need. They’re the ones who need to run for local and state office.

      His motto since '16 has been “it’s not me, it’s us”
