Bernie Sanders Says Resistance Isn’t Enough

May 6, 2025 · 1:45 pm ET · Leave a Comment

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) told the HuffPost that resisting President Trump is “not good enough.”

Said Sanders: “The American people, I think, not only want resistance to Trump, but I think they want what the Democratic Party in the last many years has not given them, and that is an agenda that speaks to the needs of the working class, because it’s not good enough.”

He added: “Oh, well, you know, Trump is a terrible guy. Fine. You know, the majority of American people understand that. What’s your alternative?”
