#2Can we just stick to letting the market work, lifting all boats, etc.. The more you mess with laws like this, the more draconian things get. Remember when Newsom said all cars except Tesla get some tax credit. So corrupt.

#3Sanders is 84 years old. He has been a U.S. Senator since 2007, which means he has de facto been in the majority twice. Taxes on the rich fell both times.
He doesn’t put forward serious ideas. He makes headlines to sell books, the source of his millions in personal wealth.

Being in he majority party doesn’t mean he can force the rest of the party to line up behind him. And even if he could, in 2021-24, the Republican filibuster stonewalled absolutely anything interesting that the Democrats wanted to do anyway.

In two decades in office he never found one moment to pull a Sinema/Manchin?

Taxes can be passed via budget reconciliation. The simple truth is policy has never been something Sanders has politically prioritized.

These are called messaging bills if one never caucuses to get it passed.

By 2019 it was more than a million [1] and by 2024 over $3 million [2].
To be clear, I make no allegations of corruption. Just that he’s pushed zero policy that aligns with his purported views in the way he’s pushed his book sales.
