US Sen. ++Bernie Sanders++ on Sunday rallied in Orono, ++Maine++with progressive Senate candidate Graham Platner, who called for transformative political change to reclaim the ++wealth++that has been “stolen by corrupt politicians and the corporations that bought them.”

Platner, who effectively locked up the Maine’s ++US Senate++Democratic primary after Gov. Janet Mills ++exited the race last month++, placed five-term incumbent Republican Sen. ++Susan Collins++ among the corrupt lawmakers who have sold out ++workers++ and advanced the interests of the billionaire class, which is ++shelling out millions++ to protect Collins’ seat.

    Is that going to work with the swing voters or republican base?

    The DNC leadership hyperfocusing on those (the former of which is an ever-shrinking sliver of the electorate) rather than their own base is how they lose easily winnable elections against fascists.

    Do they know what those words mean

    Since they’re using them 100% correctly, it would seem they do.

    or does it sound too much like the academic elite using fancy words they don’t understand?

    It seems more like you’re spreading anti-intellectual talking points and/or is the one who doesn’t understand.
