Democratic Sen. John Fetterman (Pa.), to his credit, said what every honest Sanders observer already knows: “I don’t know why you want to keep pushing these kinds of people. Maybe he should consider sitting a few out and stop pushing these kinds of communists.”
Fetterman is right that Sanders should stop. He’s wrong to think Sanders will. Because this isn’t an accident. Bernie Sanders is not stumbling across bad candidates by mistake. He is deliberately building a political movement whose hostility toward America, capitalism, traditional values, and basic standards of human decency keeps producing exactly these results. The candidates aren’t bugs in the Sanders machine. They’re features.
