Bernie Sanders breaks with AOC: Medicare for All is 'already a compromise'

Bernie Sanders contradicted New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, describing his Medicare for All bill as a concession from what a single-payer healthcare system could be.

"I love Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. She has done more in her first year in Congress to transform politics, to get young people involved, than any freshman member of Congress that I can remember," the Vermont senator, 78, said during a CNN town hall.

He added, "But, my view is that Medicare for All, the bill that we wrote, is already a compromise. It is a four-year transition period."

 He is completely lying through his teeth and you only have to read Medicare for all to know this.


 He’s trying to play the “I’m going to moderate my positions” game but that is not gonna work. In other words, when the arguments are made, he knows Medicare for all will not sell




So we have the more moderate Democrats fighting with the left wing Democrats and we have the left-wing Democrats fighting with the left-wing Democrats

I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.
