This article is about fact that poverty has not gained traction in presidential politics. There were no questions about poverty in 2008-16 debates. @UniteThePoor getting 9 candidates in a poverty forum is a big deal. i’ve written a lot about Bernie’s work on poverty in past.
Sometimes you have to laugh to keep from crying.
For FIFTY straight years @BernieSanders has been talking about poverty EVERY SINGLE DAY.

Wow—he is still one of the poorest members of both congress and the senate—but by all means gaslight away.
