    Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders said opponents of the Republican tax reform plan did all they could to stop it and essentially conceded defeat before a vote scheduled for Tuesday.

    Sanders said on CBS’ “Face The Nation” there were too many forces opposing Democrats that they could not overcome.

    “We did everything that we could.....snip~

    That's Right Bernie.....including falsifying information and flat out lying to the American people. The usual Demo tactics. Including blaming the rich and corporations. Then Small Business.

    Now the Demo Resistance can't stop this Trump Victory.

    YUUUUUGEEEEE Victory!

    Oh.....and another Campaign Promise Kept. ;)

    Martyrs are always more popular than despots. I'm not a Bernie fan, but he was shafted by Hillary and now by King Trump and the 1%ers. The legend grows.

    bernie was swindled by democrats not republicans, his only real chance to give free stuff was during the bad economy left by obama.

    republicans will rule for the next generation after the economy rebounds.

    "The Democrats are all finished" - was the dry after Reagan swept the elections.
    "The Republicans are toast" - was the mantra after Clinton.
    "The Democrats will never see daylight" was the cry after Bush won.
    "The Republicans are history" after Obama swept into office with the Democrats in charge of Congress.

    So please forgive me not being too impressed with your proclamation.

    I hope "the Bern" got that knife wound in his back repaired. Gots to get ready for a run in 2024.

    Actually you are correct. I also heard in 2013 there would never be another Republican President. The pendulum swings.

    Always. Unfortunately it seems to have to go too far in one direction or the other before it starts it's travel back. It's how we end up with Nazis and Communist Dictators and Depressions.

    Well, Bernie can try to make up for it by trying to get nuclear waste dumped in a poor peoples' community again.

    no, obama was like jimmy carter. when reagan made the economy better with trickle down economics republicans ruled for the next 12 years until clinton.

    clinton was a southern conservative democrat who was then replaced by another conservative republican for 8 years.

    conservatives will rule for approximately the next 30 years since past performance is a guarantee of future results in politics.

    Gotta admit, Trump IS making America Great Again.
    Bernie just wanted to make everything free again.
    I guess it just depends on which of the government assistance program you are on.

    I think Trump may be laying the ground-work for a over-heated economy and a bursting bubble down the road.
    I'm not a Bernie fan.
    And purely from an economic standpoint - I think it will cost more to clean up the environment than it does to protect it - so no - I don't think Trump's plans are good long term solutions. The next year of two will be OK, but like Obama after Bush, I wouldn't want to be the next President who has to clean up afterwards.
