    Jeet Heer Retweeted Bernie Sanders

    Bernie's strength as a candidate is in foreign policy, where he's articulating a social democratic internationalism that is distinct from neocon/neolib nostalgia for American global hegemony & Trumpist unilateralism. Lots of credit to @mattduss for this.https://twitter.com/BernieSanders/status/1114538249622556676 …

    Jeet Heer added,

    There is a global struggle taking place of enormous consequence. Right-wing authoritarians backed by a network of multi-billionaire oligarchs are forming a common front. We who believe in democracy must join together to build a progressive global order based on human solidarity.

        Can we have Bernie's foreign policy and Liz's domestic policy? Sanders/Warren 2020!

        I want to buy into this but what’s the explanation for his refusal to support sanctions on Russia?

        The sanctions against Russia he voted against were tied to sanctions against Iran, which are part of triggering another war.

        That tweet from Bernie is good and he's 💯 correct on that. But I have memories of his struggles in 2016 talking about foreign policy. He's improved but it's a stretch to say it's his strength imo. The lack of FP experience in the current field makes him stand out tho.

        Also, there's a whole lot of footage of him talking positively about the USSR out there, that he didn't have to really address in 2016. If that comes up in the primary or general, would FP still be a strength for him?
