"James, in all due respect, is a political hack," Sanders said. "We are taking on Trump, the Republican establishment, Carville and the Democratic establishment. But at the end of the day, the grassroots movement that we are putting together — of young people, of working people, of people of color — want real change."I'm skeptical of this blending of working people and people with roots in the Southern Hemisphere as somehow automatically a constituency for soak-the-rich taxation or for socialism.
For the moment, though, watching the establishmentarians trying to fight populists of the libertarian and of the socialist stripe at the same time is great entertainment.
