Too bad Pete slammed Bernie in the 2020 debates, following the script given to him by the DNC. If he had actually supported Bernie, we wouldn’t be in this fascist mess.
Another flag came from a speech to the National Multi-Housing Council on April 24, 2013: “Clinton Says You Need to Have a Private and Public Position on Policy.”
“I mean, politics is like sausage being made,” she said in the speech according to the excerpt. “It is unsavory, and it always has been that way, but we usually end up where we need to be. But if everybody’s watching, you know, all of the back room discussions and the deals, you know, then people get a little nervous, to say the least. So, you need both a public and a private position.”
Hard Truth: You’re mistaken. That’s not actually how things played out. Many of us remember it well, and those who are too young or were too busy can easily read the details in the history books.
… But hey, I don’t blame you for trying. Pro-corporate Democrats and their supporters should be scared of candidates who advance real left-wing policies. Your policies are failing the country, and your power is waning.
Yeah, the super delegates voting ahead of the public and putting their fingers on the scale to create a massive lead out the gate had no affect on the minds of voters whatsoever.
The DNC is corrupt trash.
At the same time, I’ll still put the majority of the blame on voters. Primary turnout is like 15% of eligible voters. Completely embarrassing.
Hard truth: he polled better than Clinton among the demographics that voted Trump into office. Shame the DNC railroaded him by publicly announcing that delegates wouldn’t vote for him. Shame they strategically pulled other candidates from the race to shore up votes for Biden in 2020. You can also thank him for meeting with Biden’s team during Covid and crafting a joint platform to help them win votes, since Biden barely has a progressive bone in his body. Shame about the surrounding elections, who knows what went wrong there?
Hard truth: Donna Brazile and Elizabeth Warren gave public statements that the 2016 primary was rigged before they walked it back. That Donna Brazile, the one who gave two questions to the Clinton campaign before the debate. You’re free to speculate as to why the former chair of the DNC and another railroaded progressive voice in the party would have knowingly made such a statement on the record.
Hard truth: Bernie’s policies are popular. The ones the Democrats have adopted are the only things keeping them above water, and unless you’re looking forward to a Democratic Party that chases the white male vote by being hard on crime and immigration again—and those strategy meetings have occurred and you’re free to read about them—you’re going to have to change your tune.

I think people misunderstand. Pete is saying that Democrats should pretend to care about people while not actually doing so.
"You need both a public and a private position” -Hillary Clinton
Did she really say that?

Reminder that Bernie Sanders lost both primaries by not getting enough votes from American voters.
Hard Truth: Bernie isn’t as popular in reality as he is on the internet.
