      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.

      Jeet, telling me that I oppose a multiracial working class movement because I support Warren is pretty offensive.

      The original claim was that Sanders can't build such a movement. But he's already built it and continues to build on it -- I take AOC's words on this seriously.

          A presidential campaign is not a movement. And a presidential candidate who is polling third and getting significantly less than half of the supporters he had last time is in bad shape.

          He is not reaching out beyond his base and building a coalition. His campaign is too insular and inward-focused. And many of his trollish, reality-denying online supporters do him no favors Warren, on the other hand, is running a great campaign & building a broad-based coalition

          No, Jeet, you literally said to “not support” Bernie is to “oppose” a diverse working class movement

          How exactly has he built it compared to the other candidates who are actually leading him overall, including among minority voters? A presidential campaign isn't a movement, but if you want to claim it is, Bernie's failing on that score right now.
