In this interview, Sanders made the case that Biden lacks the excitement to energize enough voters to beat Trump. Furthermore, the 2020 Democrat slammed the former vice president’s previous support of NAFTA and his financial backing from wealthy donors.
In Sanders’ own words:
“t’s just a lot of baggage that Joe takes into a campaign, which isn’t going to create energy and excitement. He brings into this campaign a record which is so weak that it just cannot create the kind of excitement and energy that is going to be needed to defeat Donald Trump.”
During another segment of his interview with the Post, Sanders professed that “sweeping change” is more important than “perceived electability.”
Thus far, Joe Biden has not publically responded to Sanders’ censure regarding his record in politics.
