There is this new trend on Twitter where dead-end #ImWithHer types are accusing Bernie Sanders of stealing Hillary& #39;s plans -- ones that he once said were not ambitious enough.

Here& #39;s why those critiques are ridiculous and in bad faith. https://twitter.com/josecanyousee/status/1385003351180333057">https://twitter.com/josecanyo...
First of all, many of the plans being put forth by Bernie right now only resemble Hillary& #39;s *watered-down* versions of Bernie& #39;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& #39;t win the primary. He& #39;s now governing as a Senator, and his goal is to do as much good as he can.
Hillary dead-enders (and #KHive) can& #39;t understand why Bernie would do this because they don& #39;t believe that politicians are supposed to help people.

To those sociopaths, it& #39;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& #39;t care about that at all.

In conclusion, @BernieSanders is a hero. Thank you Bernie.
