Bernie Sanders: ‘Elitist’ Democrats Betrayed Working Class
3rd November 2025
The Democrat Party is “an elitist institution” that’s “way out of touch” with the country’s working class, according to liberal Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt.
In a wide-ranging interview for The New York Times Opinion series, Sanders said he learned “there is no Democratic Party” when he ran for the 2016 presidential nomination.
“One of the things that I learned is there isn’t much of a Democratic Party. There are people on the top,” Sanders told Times Opinion editorial director David Leonhardt.
Gee, there’s an echo in here….
Well, he ought to know.
