Is Bernie Right that Democrats Abandoned the Working Class?

In this episode of ‘Two Outspoken,’ Mehdi and Owen find plenty to both agree and disagree about, from the role of the economy in the Dems’ landslide defeat, to the impact of misinformation and media bias. Their wide-ranging and thought-provoking conversation comes on the heels of a headline-grabbing statement from Senator Bernie Sanders accusing the Democrats of abandoning the working class.

The pair also discuss Harris’ failure to offer an ambitious economic agenda to the American people; the anti-incumbency effect both in the United States and across the post-pandemic democratic world; and the power of right-wing messaging and - let’s be honest - propaganda.
