      I agree that our greatest hope is a multi-racial, working class movement. I wrote a book making that argument I believe it so deeply. I don’t think Sanders can build it.https://twitter.com/AOC/status/1185640849054556160 …

      Today I am endorsing Senator @BernieSanders for president. In the end, we must come together to defeat Donald Trump. We should do so knowing he is a symptom of a larger problem - and our greatest hope is a multiracial, working class movement in the United States of America. pic.twitter.com/9fiTS7FTX9

      Replying to @tamaradraut @Kathy__Gee

      Bernie is right now leading a multi-racial working class movement that has by far more donors (especially working class donors) than any other candidate and is supported by 1 in 6 Democrats. To not support him is to oppose this project of a multi-racial working class movement.

      Finally, to say that not supporting means opposing the project of a multi-racial WC movement is bizarre. If you're on the left, there are good reasons to support him, or to support Warren. Like Sanders, she's a social democrat. But she's better at politics & at forming coalitions

      When has Warren described herself as a social democrat? Not that she's not a good candidate (she's an excellent one) but I don't think she sees herself as a social democrat.

          But she is one. Like Bernie is (Bernie is not trying to abolish capitalism). Warren's running a campaign that's further to the left than Bernie did in 2016. I mean, what DO you call free public college, a wealth tax, M4A, workers on corporate boards, etc.? Neoliberalism? Cmon!

          I tend to take people's self-description seriously, especially when it is someone as smart as Warren.

          If one assumes that she genuinely supports the health care and labor policies she’s proposed, think that would be one of the clearest possible labels for her ideological tendency, whether she identifies as such or not

          You realize of course that any progressive candidate will need to work within the new reality of federal judges appointed by Trump, yes?
