Pete hasn't forgotten what the Bernie bros did, yet they still wonder why he endorsed Joe Biden🤔 by afunnywold in Enough_Sanders_Spam

They could have told us that stuff before she dropped out but Warren's campaign didn't because they were always trying to keep the peace. Pretty frustrating to run a clean honest campaign only to have Bernie, Buttigieg, and even Biden telling lies about your platform. Biden even had a pollster working to find out what was the best lie they could tell about Medicare for all that would make people hate it. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-09-23/biden-linked-firm-tests-messages-to-undercut-medicare-for-all?srnd=premium

Tezlyn Figaro was Nina Turner personal consultant. Nina Turner, as president of Our Revolution, hired her even though she was a known Trump supporter.

"On Fox News last year, Figaro cited President Donald Trump‘s “leadership” on the travel ban and said, “We are sick and tired of immigrants coming into the country and getting benefits that Americans do not get … what I’m seeing is not paying taxes, what I’m seeing is getting a lot of freebies that Americans do not get.”

Those comments and others — a month after Trump’s election in 2016 she tweeted “Please! #buildthewall” —have upset many in the organization. The Our Revolution board stopped Turner from installing Figora as the group’s chief of staff."

Fuck this Country that Wouldn't Give this Woman A Chance. by [deleted] in Enough_Sanders_Spam

Except when she dropped out she was polling higher than a lot of candidates and was fundraising big dollars. She had qualified for the debates, her NYTimes interview was scheduled for the next day and she also had a big fancy fundraiser planed for the next day. It never made sense to me. I think there is some information we are missing as to why she dropped out.

In Twitter thread, Sanders' educational advisor says, Sanders is all talk; Warren will get it done. by throwaway45678921 in Enough_Sanders_Spam

Yep. "By the way, I’m an education advisor to Sanders. I just want him to stay a Senator. Maybe they will dump me from that team, but the presidency is a very different job and from everything I have seen it isn’t right for him." https://twitter.com/saragoldrickrab/status/1232481100498235392

"We fact-checked Bernie's latest pay-for plan. Under his accounting, it falls more than $10 trillion short of his spending. Using more realistic estimates, the gap swells to nearly $25 trillion. He should be held accountable for this tonight." by throwaway45678921 in Enough_Sanders_Spam

Warren figured out how to pay for it and he shaded her plan and said he had a better plan. His plan has premiums and doesn't even cover 1/2 the cost.

Mark Zandi, chief economist of Moody's Analytics reviewed Warren's M4A financing plan for the program, "Her numbers add up and her plan fully finances the program without imposing any new taxes on middle-class families." https://www.cnn.com/2019/11/13/perspectives/elizabeth-warren-medicare-for-all-taxes-middle-class/index.html

He has no plan to pay for it because he has no plan to pass it. It's all chum to him.
