      Beto is anti Medicare for All, which last time I checked, had the support of the vast majority of Democrats and even a slim majority of Republicans.https://twitter.com/mollyhc/status/1106645110295592960 …

      Mehdi Hasan added,

      Molly Hensley-ClancyVerified account @mollyhc
      I asked Beto if his ultimate goal on health care is to get to single payer. “No,” he said. “My goal is to get to guaranteed high quality health care for all.” On his last statements on single payer: “I’m no longer sure that’s the fastest way to get to universal health care.”

      I honestly don't understand getting hung up on these labels. You say majority of Dems support medicare for all, but how many know how it works or how much it costs? He's committed to universal health care. Period. Enough with semantics.

      Hey Seth. It isn’t semantics. Those are policy plans that people like @AdyBarkan poured their heart and soul into. Huge differences

          and also the that unless you toe the line you are not a legit candidate or strong enough Democrat is not real helpful. We should be open to all these ideas because we all share the same goal.

          I agree with the spirit of what you are saying but don’t think we all have the same goals. Or ideas on how to get there. Some of us feel strongly about the how.

          And this is how Trump won - all Democrats all agree w/ about 90% of the progressive platform. The GOAL is to get a D in the WH & move them more left. Ripping each other apart so that unity is impossible gets us Trump again so you’ll get zero of your ideas/policies. Think smart

          actually I don't see this as "ripping apart." I think it's a healthy dialogue. Should emphasize areas of agreement. We're all committed to universal health care. The question is how we get there.

          but how many voters know the details? The idea is to get everybody covered at the lowest possible cost. I respectfully reject the argument that there is only one way to get there, especially considering Vermont tried and couldn't get close.

          It is semantics to the public who like universal coverage but don’t wanna give up private insurance. If asked, they’d view Beto as supporting small-a Medicare for all. It’s deeply disengenuous to say Beto is anti Medicare for All when he’s clearly pro Medicare for all. @jonfavs
