Dead Constitution See other Dead Constitution Articles Title: The Spectacle of Sanders in Philadelphia As Clinton Puppet The Spectacle of Sanders in Philadelphia As Hillary Puppet by Stephen Lendman Sanders didn’t just fall from grace. He crashed, burned and resoundingly proved politicians can never be trusted. Nothing they say is credible. For months, supporters believed he was the anti-Clinton, campaigning against what she represents - an agenda of endless wars of aggression, world peace at risk, neoliberal harshness, police state terror, the worst of all possible worlds. She’s the most recklessly dangerous choice for president in US history, the most wicked, the most legally, ethically and morally challenged. In mid-July, Sanders sold out, betrayed his loyal supporters, proved himself just another self- serving dirty politician by endorsing Clinton, embarrassing himself in the process. On day one of the Democrat War Party convention, he again made a spectacle of himself before a nationwide audience - assuming the role of Clinton puppet, relegating himself to irrelevance. He touted a “political revolution” the whole world knows is fake. His populist rhetoric resoundingly rang hollow. Who can believe anything a Judas says, a despicable scoundrel selling out to wealth and power while continuing the charade of supporting populism over privilege. Bush/Obama policies created a protracted Main Street Depression. Half of US households are impoverished or bordering it. Workers need two or more rotten jobs to survive if they can find them. America resembles Guatemala, not the home of the free and the brave, beautiful for its privileged class alone, a classic example of thirdworldism. Sanders lied claiming “(w)e have come a long way in the last 7 1/2 years, and I thank President Obama and Vice President Biden for their leadership in pulling us out of that terrible recession.” What a shameless misrepresentation of harsh reality! He put his thumb in the eyes of tens of millions of suffering Americans - one missed paycheck away from homelessness, hunger and despair. He praised Obama instead of condemning him, duplicitously claiming Clinton supports a progressive agenda, a scandalous perversion of truth. The rest of his remarks included similar mumbo jumbo rubbish repeated endlessly while campaigning -meaningless rhetoric, exposed by endorsing Clinton, shamelessly praising her, bashing Trump. He reduced himself to a caricature of the phony persona he displayed on the stump. Support for Clinton means endorsing imperial wars, democracy for the few alone and tyranny heading toward becoming full-blown while pretending otherwise. Saying “Hillary Clinton will make an outstanding president, and I am proud to stand with her here tonight” showed everything he claims to stand for is a Big Lie. It’s pure fantasy, duplicitous doublespeak, the lowest denominator of political dishonesty, stringing along his supporters, betraying them when it most mattered. His soul was for sale all along. He’s now a footnote in the deplorable history of US politics, hugely corrupted, impossible to fix. Stephen Lendman lives in Chicago. He can be reached at lendmanstephen@sbcglobal.net.
