    the idea that politicians like bernie should do literally anything to win, including changing their beliefs and platforms that they've had for decades, is why we live in a hell world. here's an idea: bernie doesn't give a shit what obama or anyone else thinks. he's not suddenly going to stop supporting something like M4A, even if it means winning the presidency.

      But weirdly they are proud that Biden won't change his beliefs.

      Shit is brainworms.

      bernie doesn’t give a shit what obama or anyone else thinks.

      Which is why he got unprecedented mass support. Nobody can trust politicians with jack shit, but Bernie's record matched his rhetoric, at least better than any US Senator could ever be expected to "walk the walk". There isn't another figure in US government that has that kind of track record, fame, and politics.
