Moderates warn that Sanders, Warren risk throwing 2020 to Trump
(Worthy News) – Montana Gov. Steve Bullock tried to pump the brakes Tuesday night after watching the more progressive Democrats stake out left-leaning territory on border crossings, health care for undocumented immigrants and “Medicare for All” over three debates.
“Look, I think this is part of the discussion that shows how often these debates are detached from people’s lives,” said Bullock, who has won three statewide elections in Donald Trump territory. “We got a hundred thousand people showing up at the border right now. If we decriminalize entry, if we give health care to everyone, we’ll have multiples of that.”
Worried that the other Democrats were over-promising or taking positions out of step with the majority of the country, Bullock, Rep. Tim Ryan of Ohio and former Rep. John Delaney of Maryland banded together in an unofficial moderate alliance in Detroit, said that the blue-state progressives at center stage Tuesday night — Sens. Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren — are making it tougher to beat President Trump in 2020, with his campaign already attacking Democrats over the issues. [ Source: Politico (Read More…) ]
