      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.

      AOC disagrees on the part about "not a movement." I take her account of her own experiences seriously.

          I think it’s true he has built it. But I’m not sure he has the skills to effectively lead it. The leadership and tactics of his campaign and many of his supporters have not been helpful to the cause of uniting the Left.

          That's not because of us, that's because of the history between leftists and liberals. Some of us just don't have the stomach or patience for neolibs.
