(68,586 posts)Without social justice, only white males benefit from his economic plans in my opinion. This is why I did not support him in the primary, although I always vote for Democrats so I would have voted for him had he been our candidate...well the election is over and some may not agree with me, but I believe the divisive primary cost us the election. Bernie's comments in this video are divisive and will cause further election losses...we have the worst republican about to occupy the White House in my lifetime...why would he not stand with Democrats to defeat Trump instead of making these sort of comments? Hillary Clinton and women in general, deserve more respect from Bernie than he has shown...my opinion. Also, if you want to tell Democrats how to run the party...then join. Schumer will regret putting Bernie in leadership because he will criticize Democrats: not republicans.
