the kowtowing is getting nauseating.

what makes anyone think Trumps actually gonna be interested in helping the common people?!!!

Like maybe Bernie is not serious, or maybe he is , but Biden, and the other Democrats, they have been kowtowing beyond appearances.

Of course not which makes it all the more disappointing to see Sanders resorting to this.

I don't know if its anything but desperation to be on Trump's good side but it is depressing seeing just about the entire " other side" just roll over for Trump.

Maybe there should just be a maximum age for public service across the board, like at 65 you get force retired.

I have no idea why any of you would be upset about this assuming you don't support higher credit interest rates.

He's giving real Ice "I'll talk to anybody who will lie to my face about caring about my community issues, even if it is a notorious racist who is constantly racist towards my community and constantly demonstrates he does not give a single fuck about anybody but himself" Cube vibes.

Though given who Sanders is that's probably not what he's doing, that's just how it reads.

I don't know how Sanders wanted this to come off but I actually find it hilarious. Acting professional in the face of crickets.

Bernie knows who he is dealing with. This may be ammo to stack later on because this tweet, and Trumps promise to fight interest rates is getting ignored blatantly.

Or maybe Bernie meant this in earnest? I just don't see how as Bernie is a smart dude

I respect his commitment to trying to remain productive despite the shitshow our government is in for.

I don't think it will amount to much, because it's Trump, but I respect Sander's dedication at least

Yeah that's kind of my impression. I don't know what it'll do but I wouldn't mind more people in earnest trying to work with him on his own promises and platform so everybody can see he doesn't care.

Yes, because if there's anything that the American voter has proven, it's that when Trump lies about his intent, fucks up, or commits blatant crimes, they pay attention and care!

Really, it's not like Bernie has anything to seriously lose, here. I can't be bothered to keep up with every little thing Trump has said or done, but if Trump did say it & Bernie can hold him to it, good for the people, & if Trump welches, it's another broken promise of which I'm sure will be many, to hold against him.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

As someone who does sales accounting for a car dealership... it pains me to see some of the interest rates that people get. Like 15-18% on a 25k loan is not uncommon, and see into the 20s% sometimes.

This. Why are most of you not recognizing this? Literally everyone thinks credit card interest rates are too damn high. Everyone agrees with Bernie here. The ball is in Trump's court to deliver something he himself stated he will do. Trump will obviously not follow through. Either way this is a win for Bernie. Appear like you want to work with Trump on issues, while simultaneously calling him out for not committing to his promises. Genius move.

I guarantee that Bernie would work with nearly anyone to get his policies passed, but I also guarantee he's under no illusion that Trump will lift a finger here.

Can a credit company exist with a max interest of 10%? Like, does the business model work for that?

If this possibly goes through which is highly unlikely, it's going to cause a lot more people to be turned down on credit card applications.

People with sketchy credit may get a card now, but it'll be at a crazy high rate because they're more of a risk. If they can't get that 30%+ out of them then it's game over man.

this he is making people see if he will hold his promise and will call him out on it when he doesn't do it which is good people who voted cuz they think trump will help them must see it and sanders is covering his base so the GOP won't say the dems didn't work with them to pass it even tho it's total BS when they have all three branch's
