    Jeet Heer Retweeted David Axelrod

    America is still in the longest war in its history, soldiers are still dying. The public is sick of the forever wars. Sanders strong stance against interventionism is a plus, not a minus.https://twitter.com/davidaxelrod/status/1232495536395051010 …

    That was a bad moment for @BernieSanders. 70s and 80s flashbacks on U.S. interventions in other countries seemed gratuitous and will raise more hackles among those who worry about his nomination.

        God forbid anyone should have their hackles raised over American imperialism.

        Have any of these pundits ever talked to anyone who makes less than 80k a year? because it doesn't seem like it.

        It's weird how so many nominally historically informed US citizens develop sudden onset amnesia where Iran is concerned when you say the word 'Shah'.

        The total casualties in this "longest" war is less than a years worth of Vietnam. A tiny fraction of the US population are veterans.... All volunteers. We spend more in two years on entitlements than the entire Iraq/Afghanistan wars' entire history.

        And the one time Obama tried to end the war prematurely... ISIS. And we had to go back.

        Anecdotal, but I’ve been able to convince multiple conservatives I know to be at least open to Bernie over Trump specifically on an anti-war platform. I think there is potential here

        Stance against intervention, good. Bringing up the bad things about the good old days, not so much. Reminds me how old he is and how little thinking he’s done since 1968.

        ??? Americans are very keen on forgetting the pain they've inflicted and why the rest of the world hates them.
