Bernie Sanders

The American Rescue Plan, which put a lot of money into people's pockets. We cut childhood poverty by 40% by providing a child tax credit. We kept hospitals going. We kept colleges going. Kept people from getting evicted. Helped get public health out there, people getting the vaccines. You know, I'm proud of that.

But at the end of the day, I think what I have shown is that the ideas—this gets back to the early part of this conversation— The ideas that I am talking about are ideas that are widely supported. Donald Trump says, Bernie Sanders is a far left. It's like I'm some kind of extremist coming up with ideas that nobody supports.

Everything that I talk about, raising the minimum wage, healthcare for all, a tax system which demands the billionaires pay their fair share, those are all popular ideas, but people didn't know. You've got to run for president and have 20,000 people come out to your rallies and win 23 states. Well, maybe those ideas are not so crazy after all, and we've got to entertain them.

The establishment doesn't like that. They really don't. They want to tell you, and this is their main, this is how they succeed. What they say, Lex, is the world is the way it is. It always will be this way. We got the wealth. We got the power. And don't think of anything else. This is the way it is. You have no power. Give up.

They don't say it quite that way, but that's really what the intent is. And what we showed is, guess what? running an outsider campaign. We took on the democratic establishment. We came close to winning it. And we did win 23 states. And the ideas that we're talking about are the ideas that working class people, young people believe in.

And out of that came dozens of candidates now in the House of Representatives, people on city council, people on state legislature who did win.

Well, when you're 83, it does come across. All right. Yeah, of course I do. Are you afraid of it? No, I'm not afraid of death. What I am afraid of, I think, is infirmity. I have been, knock on wood, this is wood, I think, reasonably healthy with an exception. I had a heart attack five years ago. And what blew me away was that my body failed me for the very first time in my life.

That was stunning to me that, you know, suddenly I was in a hospital bed. Uh, you know, I have a great deal of compassion for people as we speak who are in nursing homes, having a hard time walking. Maybe your mental agility is slipping a little bit. That's tough. That's, that's what worries me. You know, we are all going to die and, you know, that's that.
