Moderate Democrats worry that Sanders' name at the top of the general election ticket would make it harder for Democrats running for Congress.
WASHINGTON – Sen. Bernie Sanders warned that in his quest for the White House, he would not only take on Republicans and President Donald Trump but the Democratic establishment.
Democrats vying for Senate seats and the House Democrats who won in districts Trump carried in 2016 will have to"fight like hell to escape the connotation of the socialist thing, which is going to be awfully hard," Manley said.Sen. Doug Jones, D-Ala., an endangered Democrat in the Senate, said he will differentiate himself from whoever is at the top of the ticket.
Rep. Debbie Mucarsel-Powell, D-Fla., who represents a swing district and a large Cuban American community in Miami-Dade, tweeted that the senator's comments were"absolutely unacceptable." "I don’t think the people that I represent are looking for a president who supports abolishing private health insurance companies, and I don’t either," Brindisi told the newspaper's editorial board.He has mostly led Trump in head-to-head polling, and this week,of regaining the House because of poor recruitment efforts and strong fundraising by Democrats.
"I know if you look at the media, they say, 'Bernie's ideas are radical and extreme,'"he said."Let me just say I don't think that's true."
