Bernie Sanders Stands with Kamala Harris

WEST LEBANON, N.H. — Senator Bernie Sanders is on a two-day campaign swing through New Hampshire and Maine, advocating for Vice President Kamala Harris as she prepares to lead the Democratic ticket in the 2024 presidential election. In a recent interview with Fox News, Sanders expressed his determination to prevent former President Donald Trump from returning to the White House, dismissing Trump's claims that Harris is more liberal than himself with a laugh, stating, "I would hope that when he said, ‘Can you believe that?,’ people said no." During his campaign events, Sanders criticized Trump, who was recently convicted on felony charges, emphasizing that the American public will not accept a leader he describes as a "pathological liar" and one who undermines democracy. He reiterated his commitment to ensuring Trump's defeat, highlighting the importance of addressing issues that resonate with the working class, particularly as many Americans face economic hardships. Sanders urged Harris to focus on key issues such as lowering prescription drug costs, tax reform for the wealthy, and expanding access to childcare and affordable housing. He also stressed the urgency of tackling climate change, advocating for a transition away from fossil fuels to protect future generations. As Harris steps into her candidacy following President Biden's withdrawal from the race, Sanders believes she must clearly communicate her plans to the electorate. With the Democratic convention approaching, Sanders remains optimistic about Harris's ability to rally support and effectively address the pressing concerns of voters.
