So, the first minute or so lays out the groundwork, that Bernie has a tremendous volume of work.....but I'm not sure that's actually what people are talking about when they say that Bernia couldn;t "get stuff done"..nor do I see why his volume of work would demonstrate that he could.
As to the content of that volume..well, it looks nice on paper, but he passed all that shit and -this- country is what we have regardless? So, does that show that he can get things done..or that even when he does get a bill amended it doesn't matter much? I think that the general pulse, in that comment, is that the establishment of government itself is probably too massive to be changed in the ways that bernie supporters or bernie himself might advocate for. It actively resists change, and it;s ability to resist change is greater than bernies ability to effect it.
That he, and his movement got coopted.....pretty much case in point.
