Socialist Bernie Sanders Stumps For Kamala In Election Home Stretch

Vice President Kamala Harris is pulling out all the stops as Election Day fast approaches, first turning to former President Barack Obama, and now enlisting socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders to stump for her.

Sanders, who advocates for what he calls “Democratic Socialism” and was apparently kicked out of a hippie commune for being too lazy, hit up Nevada and Wisconsin to promote Harris. Ironically, the VP is simultaneously trying to distance herself from her radical positions and present as a moderate this cycle.

Over the weekend, Sanders made two stops in Wisconsin to promote the Harris-Walz ticket. The Vermont senator also recently hit up Nevada to campaign for Harris, urging progressives that it’s “imperative that we defeat Trump.”

Though Sanders is certainly far-Left, Harris in 2019 was rated even further Left than Sanders in the Senate. Harris, in fact, was voted the “most liberal” member of the Senate.

Notably, Harris co-sponsored Sanders’ “Medicare for All” bill when she served in the Senate, and promoted the plan when she ran for president in 2020. The far-Left legislation would have cost taxpayers $32 trillion over ten years and effectively eliminated private health insurance.

“Let’s eliminate all of that. Let’s move on,” Harris told CNN host Jake Tapper of private health insurance during her 2020 run for the White House.

This election cycle, however, Harris’ team told the press in August that the Democrat would not be pushing “Medicare for All” this go-around — one of the many Team Harris attempts to moderate the self-styled radical candidate.

During her time in politics, Harris has voiced support for the controversial Green New Deal, a total ban on fracking, gun confiscation, the elimination of private health insurance, taxpayer-funded health care for illegal immigrants — including sex-changes, the radical “defund the police” movement, and other far-Left issues.

For example, Harris said during her 2020 run that there’s “no question” she’s “in favor of banning fracking.”

“And starting with what we can do on Day 1 around public lands,” she said. “This is something I’ve taken on in California. I have a history on this issue.”

The Veep also praised Australia’s strict gun ban and said she would implement gun confiscation for up to 10 million guns in the U.S. through a mandatory gun buy-back program.
