Summary
Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez drew 34,000 people to a rally in Denver and 11,000 in Greeley as part of their “Fighting Oligarchy Tour.”
They advocated progressive policies and condemned billionaire influence in politics, with Sanders urging resistance to “Trumpism” and oligarchy.
Attendees expressed frustration over economic inequality and corporate influence.
Critics, including Republican Reps. Gabe Evans and Lauren Boebert, dismissed their message as extreme and anti-energy.
Sanders and AOC pledged continued efforts to advance progressive change nationwide.
fuck y’all
been nowhere for decades and country been needing a revolution but just now decide to do something acting like MLK
where was this “energy” a decade ago or two or at any time? Trump is just the latest spokesperson and not the only time we faced shit like this
if another rally is held most likely be in a blue state and odds are these two are just opportunistically cashing out like last time
You have a point if you’re talking about Dems as a whole, but both Sanders and AOC have been pushing to stand up since the beginning. They are definitely not on the list of people sitting by the sidelines and letting it happen.
I seem to remember lots of pro-Bernie energy in 2016. Voting for Bernie would have been much more satisfying than voting for Clinton, at least for me and many of the people I personally know.
I hope you start following AOC’s social media from now on if you still think she lacks the energy or whatever. She and Ms. Crockett have been killing it for a long while now.
