If you don't see that, I don't know if I can explain it to you. Without Bernie you don't have the Squad, you have no Green New Deal, and you don't have a resurgence of rust belt democrats who probably feel like you do about the Democratic Party.

The only thing Sanders hasn't been influential on is healthcare (which I have mixed feelings on) and when the impeachment happened and for what (which I'm glad his wing lost).
