For example, just a month ago, Bernie Sanders pushed a false equivalency blaming Republicans and Democrats equally for failing the American people, and the New York Times, too, for good measure! It is amazing how Bernie took no ownership of his own role in how Trump became President, but chooses to equally blame Democrats and Republicans.

"How did Trump become president?" Sanders said. "I think it speaks to something that I talk about a lot and that is the fact that...tens and tens of millions of Americans feel that the political establishment, Republican and Democrat, have failed them. Maybe the New York Times has failed them, too."
If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
