There is this new trend on Twitter where dead-end #ImWithHer types are accusing Bernie Sanders of stealing Hillary's plans -- ones that he once said were not ambitious enough.
Here's why those critiques are ridiculous and in bad faith. https://twitter.com/josecanyousee/status/1385003351180333057

First of all, many of the plans being put forth by Bernie right now only resemble Hillary's *watered-down* versions of Bernie's policy proposals, and ones she only adopted after Bernie proved that they were popular.
Bernie was on the right side back then.

Second, and more importantly, there is a difference between RUNNING for office and GOVERNING.
Bernie ran on ambitious platforms like free college and M4A, but we didn't win the primary. He's now governing as a Senator, and his goal is to do as much good as he can.

Hillary dead-enders (and #KHive) can't understand why Bernie would do this because they don't believe that politicians are supposed to help people.
To those sociopaths, it's just a contest of wills and to accumulate personal power, which is why they keep relitigating 2016.

Having someone "steal your plans" would be a victory for anyone who cared at all about making the world a better place.
But those people -- and they truly are sociopaths -- truly don't care about that at all.
In conclusion, @BernieSanders is a hero. Thank you Bernie.
