Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) said the reelection of former President Trump would be the “end of democracy” in an interview released Saturday by The Guardian.
“It will be the end of democracy, functional democracy,” Sanders said in the interview.
The Vermont senator also said in the interview that he thinks that another round of Trump as the president will be a lot more extreme than the first.
“He’s made that clear,” Sanders said. “There’s a lot of personal bitterness, he’s a bitter man, having gone through four indictments, humiliated, he’s going to take it out on his enemies. We’ve got to explain to the American people what that means to them — what the collapse of American democracy will mean to all of us.”
Sanders’s words echo those President Biden made in a recent campaign speech during which he said that Trump’s return to the presidency would risk American democracy. The president highlighted the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol in an attempt to cement a point about Trump and other Republicans espousing a kind of extremism that was seen by the world on that day.
But you do get how it is clear to everyone that you thought you were talking to an American otherwise your reply makes no sense?
Unless you don’t get it, in which case sorry for your affliction.
Which part of my reply made you think that? I don’t remember saying “you Americans” or something
Maybe it’s just an issue with your reading comprehension?
So thats even worse than, you just went back to doing a both sides argument, oof
Are you saying the two parties aren’t on the same side? Lmao
Both are right wing parties supporting the ongoing genocide; one is just even more fascist than the other.
There is no “other side” leftist representation in the US; the country is built on slavery and capitalism after all. Even Bernie now supports the genocidal ethnostate.
no I am saying one is clearly worse… hence me mentioning “both sides argument”
mate…
