Summary
Sen. Bernie Sanders is touring Iowa and Nebraska to rally against “the oligarchy,” aiming to energize progressives rather than launch a 2028 presidential bid.
At 83, he seeks to shape the Democratic Party’s future, arguing it lost in 2024 by neglecting working-class voters.
He hopes to influence budget battles and the 2026 midterms, targeting GOP lawmakers in battleground districts.
With Democrats lacking clear leadership, Sanders’ prominence and focus on economic inequality could define the party’s direction in the Trump-Musk era.
Lol You know it’s a post-truth world when the most consistent, anti-corruption senator is the one “doing exactly what master says”. Obligatory no one’s perfect and we should call out bad behavior from anyone, but feel free to compare him to a more moral current US politican. Please, I’ll wait…
