Bernie Sanders has gained widespread popularity because he delivers a coherent, consistent, and clear explanation for the persistent decline in quality of life in this country over the last generation.
This is also central to Trump's appeal- the MAGA slogan also relies on the idea that the country has steadily declined. However, unlike offering a substantive analysis, Trump focuses on scapegoating—blaming immigrants, transgender individuals, and the "woke"—rather than addressing the root causes.
How could any decent self respecting human being not love this guy ? He’s a wonderful human being and deserves all the praise, and as a Canadian I love him !! 🇨🇦✌️
Sincere question, what is he trying to accomplish? Bernie didn’t use his star power to rally people towards Harris/Walz during the election. What’s the end game here? His ego is so big he’s probably considering another run for President in his mid 80s.

I only hope the Democratic Party takes note.
This same brand of populism has worked well for the Mexican people—it can do the same here.
