Bernie Sanders’ tweet thread on the 9/11 anniversary started this way:
Today, we remember the thousands of lives lost on September 11, 2001, and the bravery of first responders who put their lives at risk to save others.
The attacks began an era of endless war for our country and we must change course. https://t.co/UcKuln00lg
— Bernie Sanders (@BernieSanders) September 11, 2019
And it ended this way:
We must envision a new form of American engagement: one in which we lead not in war-making but in finding shared solutions to shared global challenges. U.S. power should be measured not by our ability to blow things up, but to bring people together around our common humanity.

Really, Bernie?
This tweet about America ‘blowing things up’ is in Bernie’s thread about being attacked on 9/11. https://t.co/ONT1QPNLMQ

It always circles back to “it’s America’s fault” in some way.
Everyone who thinks Bernie is making a lot of sense with this tweet just remember he posted this on 9/11. And almost the exact time the first tower was hit. Shame on him.

There's no "global solution" with Islamic supremacists. To believe this is painfully childish. https://t.co/fRteDxpIyb

You think you have a "common humanity" but what you are really doing is projecting your values onto others.
They likely don't share your values and you are likely to have to impose yours upon them.
By force. https://t.co/R9O6LZrUlA

If you had left it at the first paragraph of your first tweet it would of been a good heartfelt statement but no you had to make about your political addenda. Can’t just leave it alone for even one statement could you.

We expected nothing less from Sen. Sanders.
