        I just ask because I was phone banking for that primary and occasionally I ended up on the phone with a registered Republican for whatever reason. They were cordial and I was able to tell them why I thought Bernie was the best candidate among the Democratic nominees.

        You know who was vile though? Registered democratic boomers were furious with me and called Bernie “too radical”.

        So I don’t buy it when people try to deflect blame away from boomers for the state of American politics. Registered democratic boomers fight leftists harder than they fight MAGA. 🤷‍♂️
