Bernie Sanders, CNBC and other news media outlets had some fun at Trump's expense when he said in front of the cameras "my friend from Australia cause you have better health care than we do."

Trump: Australia has better health care than U.S. (they have universal health care)

Yes, Bernie. Medicare for all would be awesome. Back in March you promised to introduce that bill, but something happened along the way.

Right now we need to improve the Affordable Care Act and that means a public option. pic.twitter.com/sxxXIlN3NN

The public option? WTF happened Bernie? Telling us what we can't have was Hillary's job.
You were supposed to give voice to what we actually need.

And then things got worse.

In putting single payer on the back burner, Sanders has reverted to his November 2016 position when his staff told activists that no single payer bill would be introduced in the Senate because the Democrats wanted to focus on defeating the Republicans.
“It’s one thing for Bernie Sanders to lead his followers back into the established Democratic Party,” consumer advocate Ralph Nader said. “But why can’t he pull the Democratic Party to adopt his highly popular agenda, led by single payer, which garnered many millions of voters last year? Those voters must be starting to wonder.”

Gawd Dammit, Bernie!
You and the rest of the Democrats have it entirely backwards. Of course a Republican-controlled Congress will never pass a Medicare-for-all bill. We get that.
Your job as a progressive is to give an alternative vision of a better future like House Democrats did. Now was that time. Now was the best time, and YOU FAILED!

What we want to hear is not that the seas are rising (the Republicans!) and we’re gonna die alone (the Republicans!) and tumorous on the street because our chemo costs $50,000 every half hour and a hangnail is a preexisting condition (the Republicans!). What we want to hear is that there can be a better world, that through collective endeavor we can as a people feed our poor, care for our sick, and find at least some better balance between our rapacity and the health of our planet. Instead we get negation; we get Trump is a meanie and Paul Ryan wants to eat your kids, which does not get the 40 percent of people whose boss is a meanie and who can’t pay their deductibles to the polls.
The specter of Democrats literally singing in the halls of Congress because they imagine that more than a year from now they’ll reap some reward from the GOP’s pettiness and failure to construct any real alternative system is just despicable. Who are these people?

Good question. Who the f*ck are these people?
Democrats must think this is all some game.
The health care system is anything but a joke.

The way it works now, the so-called “providers” (doctors, hospitals) refuse to post the cost of any service, and then charge whatever they feel they can extract, subject to an abstruse and dishonest ceremonial “negotiation” with the insurance company. The result: hospital and insurance executives get paid multi-million dollar salaries, doctors get to drive fine German cars, and the patient gets financially ass-raped, kicked to the curb, and eventually stuffed into the bankruptcy courts.
ObamaCare did nothing to fix this...But judging from the news reports this day, none of these issues is actually on the table in the congressional debate.

Do they not see the irony of the song they are singing?
They seemed to have missed the obvious anger on the streets today. They obviously missed the lessons of the 2016 elections.
Washington is looking more and more like French aristocracy in 1789.
Things can't keep going like this. People are ready to explode, and then it'll be too late to talk them down.

This ain't subliminal
Feel tha critical mass approach horizon
Tha pulse of tha condemned
Sound off America's demise
Tha anti-myth rhythm rock shocker
Yes I spit fire
Hope lies in tha smoldering rubble of empires
Yes back through tha shanties and tha cities remains
Tha same bodies buried hungry
But with different last names
These vultures rob everyone
Leave nothing but chains
Pick a point here at home
Yes tha picture's tha same
There's a field full of slaves
Some corn and some debt
There's a ditch full of bodies
Tha check for tha rent
There's a tap, tha phone, tha silence of stone
Tha numb black screen
That be feelin' like home
