The former Bernie Sanders campaign advisor, Tezlyn Figaro, called the Democratic Party for not adapting their messages beyond the white liberals.
Since the historical loss of the Democratic Party against President Donald Trump in November, the party has been struggling to find a new message or leader to meet. The representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, DN.Y., and Senator Bernie Sanders, I-VT., Have spoken in demonstrations throughout the country, but Figaro argued that they need to change their messaging strategy, particularly when it comes to Sanders “Fighting” Fighting Olield “Tour.
“Bernie Sanders’ demographic group, and I will be honest, the progressive demographic group, the Rainbow coalition, is virtually white liberals, practically, white progressives,” Figaro told the host Charlagne Tha God in the Breakfast Club podcast. “There is still a lack of talking to those who have surrendered completely, completely recipients.”

Sanders had recently appeared at Coachella Music Festival, a festival whose tickets, as Figaro observed, cost hundreds of dollars.
“He’s talking to a very progressive movement, Ran Blanco, for me,” said Sanders’ former advisor. “Even if you are Hispanic, it is still adjacent to whites.”
“The struggles when dealing with the race. I am saying this as its formal director of racial justice,” Figaro added.
He also argued that the mega rich are simply not first category for many people.
“Everyone is not angry with Rica people, Charamagne,” he said. “As, people are really trying to get the bag.”
Charlemagne argued that Sanders, everything that was considered, is a better container for this message than many Democrats.

“I think the tour of ‘Fight oligarchy’ is a good message,” said Charamagne, arguing, “it is not a message of Bernie Sanders and AOC hypocritical, but for the majority of the Democratic party it is a hypocritical message that everyone is taking lobbyists.”
Figaro argued that such messages fall into deaf ears for different constitutes.
“Well, the hood does not know who the [oligarchy] It is “he replied, pronouncing the word.
“I don’t know what the hell you were talking about. I mean, they don’t do it. You know, when people speak of ‘neoliberal’, all that, they don’t know what you are talking about,” Figaro argued. “So there are different messages that people must have to participate.”

He also argued that the Democratic Party is simply “too big.”
“It is too big. It must be broken down. Everyone will not relate to Bernie Sanders. Everyone will not relate to AOC. Not everyone will relate to Jasmine Crockett. Not everyone will relate to me.”
