Congressional candidate Levi Sanders, son of former Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), has spoken out against the Democratic Party, as well as former presidential nominee Hillary Clinton’s treatment of “deplorables.”
…
Sanders, who is running for Congress in New Hampshire as a Democrat, said in an interview with The Independent that one of the Democratic Party’s biggest obstacles is a failure to boost voters’ “confidence and self-esteem.”
Sanders, 48, noted that Clinton’s “basket of deplorables” comment about Trump voters illustrated his point perfectly.
“The Democratic Party has done a very poor job of bolstering people’s confidence and self-esteem, and that has significant consequences when it comes to reaching out to low-income and working-class people,” he explained.
