Bernie Sanders highlights Democrats' loss of working-class support in recent elections

Senator Bernie Sanders criticized the Democratic Party for losing support among working-class voters, including Latino and Black communities. He stated that the party has abandoned these groups, leading to their support for Republican candidates, including President-elect Donald Trump. Exit polls revealed a significant increase in support for Trump among Black and Latino men compared to previous elections. Trump garnered about 24% of Black male votes and up to 42% of Latino votes, marking a notable shift from past election results. Sanders attributed this shift to economic issues like stagnant wages, inflation, and high healthcare costs. He expressed doubt that the Democratic Party would learn from these developments but indicated plans for future discussions on grassroots democracy and economic justice.
