Bernie Sanders Message for Republican & Democrat Establishment: ‘They Can’t Stop Us’
But they did in 2016, didn’t they?
After winning the Nevada caucus on Saturday, Democrat Socialist Bernie Sanders (VT) seems to be the clear cut frontrunner for the liberal party’s presidential nomination. Joe Biden and Elizabeth Warren (MA) are seemingly on their last legs. From Fox News:
Sen. Bernie Sanders will win the Nevada caucuses, Fox News can project, furthering the democratic socialist’s lead over his Democratic rivals and raising the question as to whether he can be stopped on his path to the Democratic nomination.
Bernie had a message for the GOP and Democrat establishments on Saturday. People on Twitter quickly pointed out the irony.

Technically the Democratic establishment stopped you in 2016.

This is as egomaniacal as when Donald Trump said "I alone can fix it."

Drop out.

For those who say be nice to Bernie: When exactly will Bernie start being nice to us? Yet again he’s attacking Democrats. Why should hold our fire when all he does is attack us, and when our silence is going to hand him the nomination & Trump the election?

Why are you running as a Democrat? Why aren’t you running as an Independent?

Good to know, now the Democratic Party can kick you to the curb. We don't like Impostors.

Someone at the next debate needs to ask him about this statement. It really bothers me and a lot of others. What if the other candidates said this? I do not understand his reasoning unless he is playing the same card as 2016.

Criticism of Democrats, when you're not a Democrat, but want their resources to help you be President has always been the best way to unify the party behind you 🙄
— Marc isn't getting help from Russia (@thegoodfello) February 22, 2020
This kind of post is exactly why we'll have four more years of Trump and reminds us you're not interested in uniting people.
You're running as a Democrat. Stop attacking Democrats.

It’s kind of a strange day to tweet this considering we just found out that Putin and the Russian regime is trying to boost your campaign.

Wait- serious question. I’m so confused by this . I’m a life long Democrat from Massachusetts and a life long fan of yours. Am I the Democratic establishment ? My husband and I are activists. Are we the Democratic establishment ?
— Melinda McGraw (@Melinda_McGraw) February 22, 2020
I’m so sick of your bullshit, Bernie. The Dem establishment is not trying to hurt you, but you seem to have no problem hurting them. I will never vote for you. You’ve failed every single time you’ve had a chance to act selflessly. It’s all about you and your messiah complex.
— Sean Kent (@seankent) February 22, 2020
Because he needs the Democratic establishment money and connections.
What a great way to stomp on it.
— markira (@markira) February 22, 2020
It’s getting to the point where people should weigh a Sanders presidency versus just working our asses off to get a Democratic majority in the Senate to minimize Trump’s second term…somehow I’m sure I’m not alone.

You’ve been in Congress for 30 years. You are a millionaire with three houses. You fly private. You are the establishment, Bernie Sanders.
— Maya Contreras (@mayatcontreras) February 22, 2020
Putin is helping you. I guess that's why, as a United States Senator, you aren't pressuring Mitch McConnell — daily — to bring election protection legislation to the floor.

Are you now saying you are running against both the Democratic and Republican party? If so, why are you, a life long Independent running in the Democratic primary for a nomination to represent the Democratic party?
— Fred Guttenberg (@fred_guttenberg) February 22, 2020
I have news for Bernie: You're part of the establishment.
— Styxhexenhammer666 (@Styx666Official) February 22, 2020
Bernie, this is not ok. If you are running in the Dem primary then don’t attack the Dems. This kind of rhetoric is divisive. We need to stay united. Russia and Trump are already trying their best to do that, don’t join them.
— Chris B (@ChrisBEsq) February 22, 2020
That's right Bernie, push all those moderate and conservative Democrats to the GOP. The Corbynization of the Democratic party is almost complete.

The Biden campaign dropped just over $1 million in private jet travel during the final three months of 2019. The Warren campaign spent over $725,000, while the Buttigieg campaign spent nearly $325,000.
However, Bernie’s camp takes the cake.
From Free Beacon:
The Bernie Sanders campaign spent just under $1.2 million on private jet travel last quarter, outpacing the entire 2020 Democratic presidential primary field.
The most recent filing from Sanders reveals $1,199,579 in spending during the final three months of 2019 to Apollo Jets, LLC, a “luxury private jet charter service.” The campaign spent an additional $23,941 for transportation to Virginia-based Advanced Aviation Team.

According to New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, his state is “relatively comfortable” with the number of ventilators and other protective equipment it is in possession of right now. New York is the state that’s been hit the hardest in the coronavirus outbreak and has been struggling with keeping an adequate supply of medical equipment to protect medical professionals and help treat patients who have tested positive for COVID-19. Many of the shortages have focused on items like gloves, masks, and ventilators. However, as of Friday, Cuomo said New York now has enough equipment to function. Here’s more from The Washington Examiner: “We’re OK right now. We’re OK. PPE you need every day. We have a stockpile where we are now relatively comfortable,” Cuomo said. “Remember, what we’re saying to these hospitals, they’re all uncomfortable. If you ask any hospital if they have enough PPE, they will say no. It is like asking a budget director does he have enough revenue. They will never say yes.” He continued, “These hospitals are accustomed to having a one-month to two-month stockpile. They are now looking at several days of stockpile. So, they are all uncomfortable, but we only have several days for any hospital. And we do have several days for every hospital, and we do have a supply that’s coming in. So, compared to how we have been operating on this new dire circumstances, we are relatively comfortable with ventilators and PPE.” Cuomo made it clear the current situation could change if the rate of hospitalizations for the coronavirus were to suddenly spike up again. As of now, the state has been seeing the numbers level off a bit over the last several days. The governor stated that he talks with hospitals daily and gets reports concerning the supplies these facilities have…
A group of Democrats within the House of Representatives are looking to propose a new bill that would cover 100 percent of most worker paychecks throughout the COVID-19 crisis that is making people sick, killing our vulnerable citizens, and destroying out economy and way of life. Of course, the biggest concern with such an idea is where in the world the money is going to come from. If the assumption there is that they are going to just print money to try and cover the cost, that’s a very, very bad idea. Inflation will make the dollar worth less than it already is and cause the cost of living to skyrocket. Here’s more on this from The Washington Examiner: Rep. Pramila Jayapal, a Washington Democrat and co-chairwoman of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, announced the Paycheck Guarantee Act, which she said would provide “a federal paycheck” to workers, covering 100% of earnings up to $100,000. “A federal paycheck guarantee is a real solution that matches the scale of the crisis. Mass unemployment is a policy choice. We can and should choose differently,” Jayapal said in a statement Friday. “A federal paycheck guarantee would stanch more layoffs and unemployment, and quickly and reliably deliver relief to workers. Workers would not be forced to apply for unemployment insurance, overwhelm that system and then have to once again find a job. Businesses of all sizes would be able to keep workers on payroll and benefits — and be able to quickly re-open — partially or fully, without having to rehire and retrain their workforce.” Just last month both Congress and President Trump put into law a bill that called for $2.2 trillion — that’s “trillion” with a “t” — to provide $1,200 in cash payments and expanded unemployment benefits to up to four months…
