Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., told a crowd of thousands at a rally in Los Angeles on Saturday that the U.S. was facing a moment of “extraordinary danger” as he criticized the political, economic and social policies of Donald Trump.

Sanders, who also dropped by the music festival Coachella over the weekend, has been criss-crossing the U.S. to speak out against the new Republican administration.

“We are living in a moment of extraordinary danger,” he said, “and how we respond to this moment will not only impact our lives but will impact the lives of our kids and future generations.”

    this ignores the roles of propaganda, misinformation, manufactured consent and lobbyists have on the american people;

    Well, it cedes that - absent any other voices - the existing liberal propaganda will win out and Dems will revert to the Bill Clinton / Joe Biden candidate mean.

    Sanders offering an alternative from within the party isn’t selling out anything. He’s offering an alternative that won’t offend liberals terrified of another Ralph Nader or Ross Perot “stealing” the election for the opposition.
