Sen. Bernie Sanders expressed disappointment Thursday that former Republicans got more speaking time at the Democratic National Convention than progressives voices.
"I think the future of our country is with the progressive movement and I would have liked to have seen more progressives have a chance to get out there and to talk about their vision of the future of America," Sanders told Washington Post Live of the DNC choice to highlight Republicans like John Kasich and Colin Powell over progressives like the freshman squad.

Bernie has a point: what the actual frick? Why should 2 Republicans crowd out AOC at the convention? Makes no sense. I can see trotting out one Never Trumper because—well I don’t know why really. What does it accomplish? Trump supporters could care less about Kasich or Colon Pile.
Democrats are dying to hear from them? I don’t get it.
At any rate, this is a slap in the face to the very segment of the party that has any measurable enthusiasm.
I think democrat leaders know that it’s going to be impossible to govern with the AOC wing doing anything but yipping from the sidelines.
The next 12 weeks are going to be interesting.
