The 83-year-old progressive icon took the stage ahead of indie pop artist Clairo’s performance to deliver a fiery speech, where he raged against President Donald Trump, corporate greed and the billionaire class.
I respect this wholeheartedly, but it was 60 years ago.
Is it truly the guy who can take on the trump empire? I’m yet to be convinced.
Yeah, because he’s been sitting on his hands for over the last half a century. GTFO with this no-effort trolling.
We will see I guess.
There is no “the guy”. There never was, there won’t be. Groups are what get stuff done at that scale.
He seems to be among the most willing to. You want someone else, let them step forward.
Wow. You could just Google him… You’re clearly ignorant here, which is fine, but now you’re casting judgement? This is kind of why we’re in this mess in America… People jump to conclusions before being informed.
Bernie is one of the only people in our federal government that I respect at this stage.
Is it truly the guy who can take on the trump empire?
No single person takes on anything. The only reason why it seems that way is because the history books generally point to a particular person as being responsible for some big change in society, but people like that are only able to exist because there’s hundreds of thousands of people who’s names you’ll never know put in the work to make it possible for people like Bernie, or MLK, or whomever to be the face those movements.
