Bill DeBlasio's message to another mayor (no, not the one who used to have his job)

.@PeteButtigieg, you clearly don’t understand the movement @BernieSanders has built. It reflects the true values + hope of working people in America. They simply want a country that puts working people first. Your critique tonight speaks for the American elite, not the majority

And hey @PeteButtigieg, try to not be so smug when you just got your ass kicked. You know how we form a winning coalition to beat Trump? With a true multi-racial coalition of working Americans: something @BernieSanders has proven he can do + you haven’t. Dude, show some humility

I think part of the problem that happened in the UK with the Bernie equivalent Corbyn is when you have a bunch of insecure voters who are one salary away from financial disaster they get very nervous of a politician offering them a bunch of stuff.

Many working class people don't really pay attention to politics and anything remotely radical sounding spooks them.

Matthews makes worst analogy of all time, while Sanders says Fidel Castro did some "good things." Don't gloss over that.

[Seshmeister]

Castro did do some good things - universal and free education and healthcare with first-world levels of literacy and life expectancy.

You have to bear in mind what Cuba was like when he took over and also compare it with life was like for ordinary people in the Central American countries that had to live under the dictators that the US government backed.

I agree Castro is not worse than some of the cunts we've backed during the Cold War. But his ain't Albert Schweitzer either...

Castro asked the US for help first, but the BCE slammed the door in his face. Mostly because Grandpa Prescott the Nazi & his brother in law Herbie Walker were making a shit load of money from a sugar plantation under the oppressive fascist Batista regime.
