Bernie Sanders Gives Democrats Two Keys To Resisting Trump And Winning Back Congress

From the article:

Democrats need to do two things, Chris.

Number one, a 50-state agenda. Do not surrender parts of the country to right-wing Republicans.

Number two, a progressive agenda that makes it clear that the Democrats are going to stand with working families, they are prepared to take on Wall Street and the one percent. We do those things, I think you’re going to see fundamental changes in the way politics works in America.

And yes, the Democrats must also fight against a corporate media that is owned by 6 large corporations, and a media that is more concerned with access than investigation.

Rather than endless conversation about 2016, Democrats must focus on 2018 and 2020. To come that close in very red Kansas shows indeed that it can be done.
