Bernie Sanders versus Hillary Clinton on #FightFor15 in two tweets

Some things are just bizarre. First things first, Bernie has consistently argued for a nationwide $15/hour minimum wage. In contrast, Hillary has settled for $12/hour.

So, today, as fast food, care workers, and many other low-paid Americans took to the streets, Bernie and Hillary took very different approaches to expressing their solidarity with the folks who flip your burgers, clean your toilets, and take care of your aging parents.

Bernie went to the streets.

In contrast, Hillary seems to have only gone to Twitter. Take a look at that hashtag.

Yes, she uses the #Fightfor15 (sic) hashtag, even though she only thinks McDonald’s workers are worth $12/hour — $3/less than what they are risking their livelihoods out on the streets to demand. Does Hillary think we are stupid?

Once again, Bernie shows his consistency, while Hillary — I don’t know — I guess shows that her plutocrat-backed policy platforms are incompatible with the wishes of the Democratic electorate.
