Sanders may be outside of the Clinton/Obama axis, but, demonstrably from his own words in that article, he sees Trump and Putin as people he would never ally with - indeed, it would appear that he sees them as much, if not more of, a part of the problem than your liberal elite.

Throughout this thread, your reaction to what Sanders wrote has been "he doesn't really mean that because I know what he is really about" - that just seems very arrogant to me.

Well done on Trump the anti banana republic candidate as well, hilarious .
Firstly Senator Sanders owns three homes, so he's not the most qualified to speak about the 1%. Secondly, he took no action when it emerged the Hillary campaign had rigged the primaries. In fact, he allowed them to take control of his supporters via the DNC, and he even endorsed Hillary. What the political system needs is sunlight and transparency, on both the left and the right, and people who are prepared to challenge the status quo. It's pretty obvious that wasn't part of Sanders political agenda.
