Run Bernie Run.
Bernie Sanders would make the best Democratic candidate for President. Might be his last chance.

Not really, but thats where it always ends up. Populism is rudderless and drifts leftward

So communism = populism now? Are you sure you’re not just trying to say that Bernie and Trump are the same because that’s exactly what you’re doing.

Sure if you’re talking about the sales pitch for each but in practice they’re diametrically opposed.

The Dems are playing long ball. Trout out these two idiots for the next 2 years then the savior will be revealed to save the Democratic Party. I.E. Obama.

Bernie Bros still exist? That's like Japanese soldiers coming out the woods decades after the war is over.

Quick explanation from Grok:
Populism is a political approach that claims to represent the interests of "the people" against a perceived elite or establishment. It often emphasizes simple, emotional appeals, distrust of institutions, and a narrative of widespread grievances. Populists typically frame issues as a struggle between the common folk and a corrupt or out-of-touch ruling class, promising to restore power to the masses.
It can manifest across ideologies—left-wing populism might focus on economic inequality, while right-wing populism often leans on cultural or national identity. Critics see it as divisive and overly simplistic, risking authoritarianism; supporters view it as a democratic corrective to elitism. Historical examples include figures like Huey Long in the U.S. or modern ones like Chávez in Venezuela. Data's fuzzy, but studies (e.g., Norris & Inglehart, 2019) suggest populist movements gain traction during economic or cultural upheaval.

Running for President has been great for Bern’s real estate portfolio.

Isn’t Bernie in his 80s?

Can we stop running everyone's favorite grandpa to be in charge of the country? The last few cycles have been absolute trash for candidate choice
