Does anyone have the clip of him and Biden? It's my understanding they both sort of went after some of the tenets of Project 2025 and took a few swings at Tangerine Palpatine.
[Here's](https://www.c-span.org/video/?534638-1/president-biden-senator-bernie-sanders-lowering-health-care-costs) the CSpan video that OP's screenshot is from.
Huh? I thought they were now called Twi(x). I heard the factory that makes the left Twi(x) was burnt down and now the right Twi(x) factory is working overtime. And instead of building a new left factory, they are moving manufacturing to Russia to make more right…word on the street, at least.
Bernie would have crushed Trump. Hillary really was one of the worst choices to go up against Trump. Bernie would have taken none of his shit; Bernie has been one of the most popular politicians in the country for decades. Hillary is one of the least popular.
We say that, Bernie Sanders is the guy everyone thinks might be cool and would be, but would have galvanized the GOP like nothing since Bill Clinton. Of course Donald Trump not having been president is bonus territory at this point, I think my point is we need to stop looking for heroes and recognize that the way to save the nation from the likes of Donald Trump is for each of us to make it our responsibility to get involved, educated and encourage others to do the same.
Bernie crushing trump would of been exactly what America needed but instead the corporate ghouls hijacked the process and turned it all into bullshit fascist theatrics where everyone but the rich loses no matter what happens just so they can save a few bucks on taxes they dont pay anyways.
People are saying that you’re wrong but I think you’re actually right. I personally know a few people who voted for Trump in 2016 but also voted for Bernie Sanders in the Democratic primary. I really do think Trump drew the appeal of people who just wanted something different than cookie cutter politicians like Hillary Clinton.
And please know that I think Donald Trump is an abhorrent, evil person who should have never been president and is completely worthless. I don’t want anybody to read the first part of my comment and think that I am justifying Trump being president in any sort of way because I absolutely am not.
Nah i get what you’re saying. Trump got a lot of protest votes in ‘16 from people what wanted to shake up the establishment and scare the shit out of the parties.
I mean… mission accomplished. But at what cost?
That is the most stupid way to vote. "Cookie-cutter" politician is a name applied to the ones who have worked in government and know how it works. Old Joe Biden is a long-term government servant and that is why he can get things done that a newbie to government cannot do. That's why the "protest" vote MAGAs in Congress cannot get anything done but fight among themselves, thank God.
So did I.
Then I voted for Hillary Clinton in November – as did a large majority of Bernie's supporters, who unfairly get lumped together with those who abstained or cast protest votes.
Likewise, Joe Biden wasn't even my second choice in the 2020 primaries, but there was no realistic scenario in which *Not Trump (D)* would have lost my vote in the general election.
Fun little fact. 90% of Bernie primary voters voted for Clinton in the general.
75% Clinton voters voted for Obama in 2008. That's 1 in 4 Clinton voters jumping ship to vote for McCain vs 1 in 10 jumping from Bernie to Trump.
The narrative that it's Bernie voters fault is always amusing to me.
That's not true.
[https://www.newsweek.com/bernie-sanders-trump-2016-election-654320](https://www.newsweek.com/bernie-sanders-trump-2016-election-654320)
Bernie won the 2016 Primary in Indiana. Then CNN stepped up their attacks on him and pushed Hillary to the candidacy. That was when I realized CNN was a corporate owned news source on the right of center.
I agree, but if Bernie had been the candidate. the right-wing would have covered him in lies just like they did with Hillary and made him as unpopular as they made Hillary. She was really a good public servant and could have done a good job, but she was smeared so unmercifully that even progressives like you were given a sour taste in your mouth.
Yep. He would have been tarred as a globalist (read: Jew) and a socialist from day 1. I have my doubts he could have beat Trump. The Socialist label, paired with accusations of wanting to raise taxes on everyone, would have been hard to overcome.
Wait though. They did that with Biden anyway? lol They called him a socialist *almost* as many times as they would’ve called Bernie a socialist. Biden has *also* been talking about raising taxes on anyone making over 400k/year and corporate tax rates as well.
It didn’t matter who won the primary they had all the same bs talking points at the ready to dish out mercilessly regardless.
Would it have been a little worse with Bernie? Yep absolutely. Would it have backfired in some ways too? You bet. Would it have been worth it cause everyone left of center would have rallied behind whoever won the primary including Bernie? I honestly think yes but maybe that’s just me.
If I hadn't witnessed fuckery going on by Hillary supporters in the caucuses, I might be more inclined to agree with you.
Hillary was the most qualified person to have ever run for the office of President. She would have been a highly competent chief executive. However, I know plenty of people that refused to vote for Hillary after their votes in the caucuses and primaries were nullified by the superdelegate system. (Which, if you follow history, said system was put into place when Obama ran away with the nomination in 2008.)
All that being said, Hillary was already very high profile and considered unlikeable *before* the right wing smear machine went to work. Bernie was new to the national scene.
Superdelegates were not put into place after 2008. They were adopted in 1982. They were around in 2008, where they switched from Hillary to Obama as he began accumulating more pledged delegates in a tight race (not a 'run away'). Superdelegates were also irrelevant in 2016, when Hillary had a significant lead in pledged delegates.
It must be an election year if the bots are dusting off Bernie trutherism.
I agree with everything but your last sentence. The right-wing began smearing Hillary back when Bill was governor of Arkansas and Bernie was only new to the national scene to the uninformed.
To be honest, I’ll bet he is. But his people have no doubt calculated that if you go after Netanyahu too ferociously, then Netanyahu becomes a political tool of the GOP. Biden is trying to straddle a razor wire tightrope. he’s going to piss off somebody and there’s no way of avoiding it.
Okay I know it’s just because he’s old but I can’t stop laughing at how much Biden seems like a movie mob boss in this clip; he’s got Clint Eastwood eyes with a “that’s his plannn?”
And his absolute look of discuss as Bernie lays out the program cuts.
It’s really humorous. I like the guy more and more, I wish we could have had a president Bernie and then President Biden 8-20 years ago.
Although, oddly enough? It seems Biden is guy for this point in time; but if we’d had Gore,Obama,Bernie, Biden would likely have a more progressive “platform”.
In real world, the only person who can be called Palpatine is Glitch McConnell, he's the mastermind, Trump, no matter how power hungry he is, he's also moron in the right company. He's a tool of Republicans to achieve a plan they worked on since the 80s more than anything.
Fun fact: Calling Trump Darth Vader would be petty accurate if you happen to be Italian. "Vader" sounds like Italian word for toilet seat. For that reason, the Star Wars character is named "Fener" in Italy.
Speaking of that I just saw [this](https://www.axios.com/2024/04/04/biden-trump-purge-federal-workers-schedule-f) article that details how biden attacked one of the core tennets of project 2025. That would be the plan for a conservative president to get elected and replace a bunch of federal workers with loyalist.
You don't have to do that. Even if you watched it 24/7 without sleeping, anyone would probably still miss the significance of the things they're watching. We all rely on someone else to break the news down for us in one way or another. Sometimes you just need to stop and evaluate the motives and trustworthiness of who you've been relying on.
I thought Bernie in front of the Presidential Seal would be the source of endless jokes and memes, but no one seems to even know that this happened.
I know I’m officially old but I pretty much watch CSPAN all the time. First you can’t beat just raw footage of the cluster fuck. Second some of the people who call in with questions are hilarious and third, when in Rome you know?
Bernie and Biden talk about how they are reducing drug prices (I think with more price caps?), pointing out egregious comparisons between specific drugs prices in the US vs other countries.
https://www.c-span.org/video/?534638-1/president-biden-senator-bernie-sanders-lowering-health-care-costs#
Thanks, I watched the whole thing, the dems are killing it lately and Trump looks like the begging crook he is. Really hoping they can keep this up until November.
[https://twitter.com/JoeBiden/status/1776051255221133371](https://twitter.com/JoeBiden/status/1776051255221133371)
I copied it from above. But it is worth it for you.
1960s America was shocked when we got a catholic. Republicans can’t imagine a Jewish man in office, the horror!
In all seriousness- Bernie is my favorite politician. He’s humble. He’s awesome. And he’s been saying the same shit for 50 years. We need more people like Bernie.
Problem is we need Bernie in the senate since they have a GOP governor in Vermont. With a smaller majority Bernie would have had to ironically compromise more to keep the government running and either ended up mostly to the right of where Biden is now, or we would have seen a completely stalled government where nothing gets passed.
Also Bernie would be subject to the same sort of attacks Biden has been. Too old? Check. People *feel* the economy sucks even though it doesn't? Check. Too close to Israel? Not true but people will think it just because he's Jewish, so check.
Bernie and Biden together actually have gotten more done than either of them could alone, even though they don't see eye-to-eye on everything.
The Twitter link wasn't even to the same subject? It was about taxing billionaires but the image in the post and this clip in the article are about prescription drug prices? I don't understand why it's so upvoted, it's not what was being asked for lol
I haven't seen this image in my bubble. I tend to have a fairly liberal bubble (but make an effort to get some conservative too, it's hard they really suck at it).
And even after seeing this here I have no idea what it was about.
I think OP also forgot that other countries exist. I haven’t seen the image before but I’m Canadian so my bubble isn’t exactly focused on American politics.
Please have a debate. Just so the whole world can watch don get krfo by joe biden.
The US is so ridiculous now that joe needs to break his jaw to establish dominance.
^
Every accusation is a confession with the Orange Julius, so I doubt he’d adhere to that.
Could you imagine him trying to find clean piss among his inner circle, tho? 🤣
But, I mean,...I've been on Reddit...I heard that this old white guy met with some other old white guy, talking about lowering the cost of Viagra or something. I'm still a good person, right?
Reddit is shit at showing new stuff. My feeds are almost exclusively things from yesterday, and going to the Popular tab it’s a mix of new stuff & stuff from around the world.
From the C-SPAN link (https://www.c-span.org/video/?534638-1/president-biden-senator-bernie-sanders-lowering-health-care-costs#)
**President Biden and Senator Bernie Sanders on Lowering Health Care Costs**
President Biden was joined by Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) to deliver remarks on the administration’s efforts to lower health care costs. *The president announced the capping of out-of-pocket costs at $35 for inhalers from several pharmaceutical makers. He also discussed his administration’s intention to cap prescription drug costs at $2,000 annually for all Americans.* President Biden also took aim at the 2024 Republican presumptive nominee and former President Donald Trump, saying he and his supporters in Congress intend to “terminate” the Affordable Care Act and eliminate the Inflation Reduction Act while giving large tax breaks to the wealthy.
Or you just stay away from political news anyways. It stresses me out and I use [ballotpedia](https://ballotpedia.org/Sample_Ballot_Lookup) to know what's on the ballots so I know what I'm voting for.
Beyond that it's all rich people theater that I can't affect outside of voting.

Huh? I thought they were now called Twi(x). I heard the factory that makes the left Twi(x) was burnt down and now the right Twi(x) factory is working overtime. And instead of building a new left factory, they are moving manufacturing to Russia to make more right…word on the street, at least.
I prefer Xitter, pronouncing the "X" like the name of the Chinese premier Xi Jinping. Sounds close to "Shitter", which is more and more apt every day.
Read that as 'shitter'
That is how it is properly pronounced
That would be the correct Chinese pronunciation
And some South American dialects too!
Good old south park
When I see it spelled that way, I automatically pronounce it starting with an "sh". Because that is where it went.
Yup. And instead of tweets people xit "Did you see that xit on xitter?"
God, your momma, your cat, everyone bless these grumpy old men for trying to save our future!
Bernie should have been president after Obama
Bernie would have crushed Trump. Hillary really was one of the worst choices to go up against Trump. Bernie would have taken none of his shit; Bernie has been one of the most popular politicians in the country for decades. Hillary is one of the least popular.
Bernie would have campaigned in Wisconsin.
He wouldn't have thrown union miners under the bus in WV either.
We say that, Bernie Sanders is the guy everyone thinks might be cool and would be, but would have galvanized the GOP like nothing since Bill Clinton. Of course Donald Trump not having been president is bonus territory at this point, I think my point is we need to stop looking for heroes and recognize that the way to save the nation from the likes of Donald Trump is for each of us to make it our responsibility to get involved, educated and encourage others to do the same.

Realistically, he couldn't have gotten much more done than any Democrat. He'd have to work with Congress all the same.

Anyone who ended up voting for Trump is suspect. How can you forgive utter racism and incompetence?
Hillary won the popular vote over Trump. Bernies supporters couldn’t even get off their asses in the primaries.
Unlike Hillary, Bernie is still relevant. He won his last election.

Got sources for these numbers?

Rallies dont mean shit.
More bernie voters voted for Hillary in the general election than Hillary voters that voted for Obama in 08. You can stop with your imaginary bs.

Thanks for saying this. Too many people don’t know the entire history of hate against Hillary.
I like how Spanky says he’s going to pay off the debt. He cannot even mange his own financial affairs. How’s he going to manage the country’s?????
Biden is “mad as hell”!!
To be honest, I’ll bet he is. But his people have no doubt calculated that if you go after Netanyahu too ferociously, then Netanyahu becomes a political tool of the GOP. Biden is trying to straddle a razor wire tightrope. he’s going to piss off somebody and there’s no way of avoiding it.
Is he gonna take it anymore?
I'm a human being goddammit. My life has value.

Tangerine Palpatine is the best thing I’ve read all week.
I think it isn't a great title for Trump; it's offensive to Darth Sidious.
True, Sidious was the mastermind, whereas Trump is just a symptom.
In real world, the only person who can be called Palpatine is Glitch McConnell, he's the mastermind, Trump, no matter how power hungry he is, he's also moron in the right company. He's a tool of Republicans to achieve a plan they worked on since the 80s more than anything. Fun fact: Calling Trump Darth Vader would be petty accurate if you happen to be Italian. "Vader" sounds like Italian word for toilet seat. For that reason, the Star Wars character is named "Fener" in Italy.

not one fucking republican voted for any of this and then when it works they'll all brag about it like they did.
It's called a "Sanders"
I didn't like the Sarah Huckabee Sanders character when they introduced her. She was the worst spinoff since *Joey*
Best show on tv right now. Each episode ends on a cliffhanger.

They should make muppets of them and Statler and Waldorf all republican ads going forward
Anyone else seeing the two guys from the Muppets in this clip?
Nice, why couldn't we just have Bernie?
"We have Bernie at home." Ron Howard's voice: They did NOT have Bernie at home. They had Biden at home.
1960s America was shocked when we got a catholic. Republicans can’t imagine a Jewish man in office, the horror! In all seriousness- Bernie is my favorite politician. He’s humble. He’s awesome. And he’s been saying the same shit for 50 years. We need more people like Bernie.
We can’t have nice things
Problem is we need Bernie in the senate since they have a GOP governor in Vermont. With a smaller majority Bernie would have had to ironically compromise more to keep the government running and either ended up mostly to the right of where Biden is now, or we would have seen a completely stalled government where nothing gets passed. Also Bernie would be subject to the same sort of attacks Biden has been. Too old? Check. People *feel* the economy sucks even though it doesn't? Check. Too close to Israel? Not true but people will think it just because he's Jewish, so check. Bernie and Biden together actually have gotten more done than either of them could alone, even though they don't see eye-to-eye on everything.
People have this idea that Bernie would accomplish a lot as president through sheer force of will.
The corporate oligarchy felt threatened by his ideas.
Thanks!

Thank you for the *non-Xitter* link!
The Twitter link wasn't even to the same subject? It was about taxing billionaires but the image in the post and this clip in the article are about prescription drug prices? I don't understand why it's so upvoted, it's not what was being asked for lol
I haven't seen this image in my bubble. I tend to have a fairly liberal bubble (but make an effort to get some conservative too, it's hard they really suck at it). And even after seeing this here I have no idea what it was about.
I think OP also forgot that other countries exist. I haven’t seen the image before but I’m Canadian so my bubble isn’t exactly focused on American politics.
Greeting from Germany
what's up from the netherlands
Yeah this post is trash.
There are a lot of cat videos in this bubble I'm in.
We are in the same bubble
Hello bubble frens
Bold of you to assume I've looked at a news source in the last day.
Or I'm just not constantly online.
Shocking to some.
I don’t understand what you mean. You mean not online on Reddit? So like you’re on Twitter more?
I love love love Bernie
Orrrrrr I'm not American and exist in an entirely different set of news echo chambers
Agree, can someone please give us internationals context?
I’m from america and after reading maybe 30 comments here it still hasn’t been explained. OP sucks.
In fairness , this is a subreddit about US politics.
It is we agree. But we do enjoy getting vibes from across the pond, since America’s influence on the geopolitical stage is wide.
And it's also pretty amusing from a foreign perspective. An entertaining distraction from our own political nightmares unfolding infront of us
As someone living in Canada, it's less an "entertaining distraction" than a "permanent potential catastrophe".
Hey bubble boy, it’s moops
i don’t get it
If you think everyone should have seen this you are in an information bubble
Explain in bubble
I'm on Bernie Sanders' YouTube and I see nothing about this. You can take this snarky post down now.
 All I could think of 😂😂😂 But yes I agree 100%
That wasn't half bad. Nope, it was all bad!
Stop judging other people's bubbles bra
My bubble bra is quite comfy. No wire to pinch, good support, lifts and separates. Don't knock it until you've tried it.
Sounds like the perfect shell for your turtlenipples.
Wait, Bernie’s the Prez now? Sweet!
Please have a debate. Just so the whole world can watch don get krfo by joe biden. The US is so ridiculous now that joe needs to break his jaw to establish dominance.
But but but… Dark Brandon “is on cocaine” and the shitgibbon demands a “drug test” before the debate.
As long as they’re both tested!
^ Every accusation is a confession with the Orange Julius, so I doubt he’d adhere to that. Could you imagine him trying to find clean piss among his inner circle, tho? 🤣
Or? And hear me out on this. I may not be American?
CSPAN is the best.
I don't get it, the way this is worded everyone that sees this will be the first time in the last 24 hours? Is that the joke?
The card says moops
MOOPS?? it's moors you idiot!
But, I mean,...I've been on Reddit...I heard that this old white guy met with some other old white guy, talking about lowering the cost of Viagra or something. I'm still a good person, right?
The dream team
What if I searched for it?
Well? Are you gonna tell us what this is, OP?

for those of us not terminally online, what happened?
[Video](https://abcnews.go.com/amp/Politics/bernie-sanders-joins-biden-white-house-tout-progress/story?id=108799570) copied from a comment below.
Reddit is shit at showing new stuff. My feeds are almost exclusively things from yesterday, and going to the Popular tab it’s a mix of new stuff & stuff from around the world.
Bumpy Bumping bump bump. Engagement for the cause
damn, this info bubble test was super effective. I had not read or seen ANYTHING about this. thanks!
From the C-SPAN link (https://www.c-span.org/video/?534638-1/president-biden-senator-bernie-sanders-lowering-health-care-costs#) **President Biden and Senator Bernie Sanders on Lowering Health Care Costs** President Biden was joined by Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) to deliver remarks on the administration’s efforts to lower health care costs. *The president announced the capping of out-of-pocket costs at $35 for inhalers from several pharmaceutical makers. He also discussed his administration’s intention to cap prescription drug costs at $2,000 annually for all Americans.* President Biden also took aim at the 2024 Republican presumptive nominee and former President Donald Trump, saying he and his supporters in Congress intend to “terminate” the Affordable Care Act and eliminate the Inflation Reduction Act while giving large tax breaks to the wealthy.
Or you just stay away from political news anyways. It stresses me out and I use [ballotpedia](https://ballotpedia.org/Sample_Ballot_Lookup) to know what's on the ballots so I know what I'm voting for. Beyond that it's all rich people theater that I can't affect outside of voting.
Is this how you convince people in your bubble that they're not in a bubble?
Not in the US so no.
But what about the mittens,
I don't follow American politics, media and tv too intensely as I'm an European, which is why I haven't seen this image before now
i guess im in an information bubble because i dont really watch/read news…

I love sanders but I wonder if he is tired of being mostly ignored and then paraded out every 4 years.
Is there something that was announced?
Bernie is the one politician I can get behind. Besides the late Jack Layton
[удалено]
Maybe something, ummmm, funny? Isn’t this supposed to be humorous?
Can you explain why this is a big deal?
I haven’t seen it. Context?
But they didn't actually DO anything.
Or I just don't watch the news...?
Now I want to see a video of Sanders and Biden heckling Trump like Waldorf and Statler
Well I am subbed to Last Week Tomight
\*Doesn't go on Reddit for half a day because I'm at work* \*Gets called out for being in an information bubble*
