Nonsense.

Biden did a lot towards eroding Trump's fossil fuel funded fascism. It's why billionaires freaked out & funded MAGA.

Biden was thwarted by corrupt Senators like McConnell, Manchin & Sinema.

Okay. But we still need to overturn #CitizensUnited and take away the ABILITY for billionaires to donate large amounts in the first place.

That needs to be the primary goal. And I don't think most politicians-- in either party, including #EstablishmentDemocrats -- will ever be willing to do so.

Backing politicians because they push back a bit against #IncomeDisparity is fine; but by itself, it is merely a small temporary victory, and is doomed to be a neverending uphill battle.

You don't think establishment Democrats will vote to overturn Citizens United based upon what evidence? Let's be clear about who has failed this country based upon the evidence.

A full 12% of Bernie Sanders supporters voted for Trump, without them, Hillary would have become president and appointed three non corrupt Supreme Court justices. I would argue there is much more evidence the Bernie crowd is the issue.
