Ideas that can't be implemented, but are treated as if they can, prevent real progress from being made. People hold out for these fantasy plans, instead ofhelping to enact real improvement.

I am Briahna Joy Gray, National Press Secretary for the Bernie Sanders 2020 campaign. AMA!

https://www.reddit.com/r/WayOfTheBern/comments/bj9csn/i_am_briahna_joy_gray_national_press_secretary/

Before that -- just a year ago -- I was a disaffected attorney who had started writing (and tweeting) out of frustration with the media's inattention to the power and importance of the progressive movement.

Translation: Couldn't find a job and nobody would listen to me whine.

I think our surrogates (and our staff) are able to push back against false narratives and highlight distinctions between candidates without going negative.

ROFLMAO...you could always get a job as a comedienne!

The details of the campaign schedule aren't concrete this early in the game, but Bernie strongly believes in a 50 state approach.

Bernie barely has 5 let alone 50. Only off by an order of magnitude, Bri. Unacceptable for an engineer, but not bad for a lawyer!

I think it's important to speak directly to the people as often as possible, which is why Bernie's extraordinary media team is ramping up it's efforts in a way that I think is really going to knock your socks off.

Sorry, I've read your tweets...and my socks are still firmly on my feet.

Have you ever had a feud with someone online, or disliked someone because of their scholarship, and then met them and found it more difficult to be as aggressive as you were about them before you met?

Really? Try me. Let's meet...just name the time and place.

I'm incredibly proud of Bernie's leadership here, and we plan to emphasize his commitment to this particular issue in South Carolina and beyond.

That sure worked out real well. South Carolina started the ball rolling for Biden. Good work there, Bri!

I think we've just got to frame issues better, and not behave as though our community won't "get it."

Oh, we get the picture just fine...you can't frame worth a shit.

I'm good at quiches! And apple pies and carrot cakes. I am very good at those.

I'm sure you are...but you're even better at muckraking muffins.

I think the best way is to be conscious of how we engage on social media (one bad apple and all).

One??? How's about the whole Bernie barrel!

This is just too damn easy.

it's full of aholes who hate Democrats more than Trump and who are fine with Trump winning. Bunch of butthurt idiots who couldn't give a shit about Bernie's policies, otherwise they wouldn't choose a path that gets them farther away. "Not me, us", my ass.
