    Almost 40 percent of donors to Sen. Bernie Sanders's (I-Vt.) 2020 presidential campaign so far have used an email address that was never previously used to give to a Sanders campaign, The New York Times reported Monday.

    The revelation signals that Sanders may have significantly expanded his support base and donor network from when he ran for president in 2016.

    The Times also reported that, as of Monday, Sanders has received $10 million from 359,914 donors since announcing his 2020 bid less than a week ago.

    “Our second day was bigger than anybody else’s first day," Ari Rabin-Havt, a senior adviser to Sanders, told the newspaper.

    There are also more than 48,000 donors who have agreed to give Sanders recurring donations. Those recurring donations will be worth more than $1 million in total per month, the Times reported, citing statistics provided by the Sanders campaign. According to the Times, the average contribution was less than $26.

    Sanders announced his second bid for the presidency last week and, within 24 hours, his campaign had received nearly $6 million in donations.

    Bernie really has to step up his game this time around if he wants a chance. He didn't offer nearly enough free stuff last time.
    It's all about taking action and not being lazy. So you do the work, whether it's fitness or whatever. It's about getting up, motivating yourself and just doing it.

    The Bernie "Our Revolution" is basically just a almost mirror copy rip off of the energy, money, and activism we had many years ago with RP. Heck, look at their damn slogan, apparently there is nothing a socialist won't steal. But they are enjoying their lime light, elected officials, tons of energy and excitement, even more than the RP REV.

    @Ehanced_Deficit's real agenda on RPF =troll:

    Who spends this much time copy/pasting the same recycled links, photos/talking points.

    7 yrs/25k posts later RPF'ers still respond to this troll

    It's hard for me to imagine someone donating to Bernie Sanders after the 2016 DNC Primary fiasco.

    I hate Bernie Sanders more than I should, but he's so damned weak.

    I agree. Freedom is NOT popular. Being taken care of from cradle to grave is popular. Dictating what neighbors can do is popular. Taking from the rich to give to the poor is popular. Theft through taxation is popular.

    I am a libertarian. I am advocating everyone enjoy maximum freedom on both personal and economic issues as long as they do not bring violence unto others.

    Good. I hope he wins the primaries. I like Trump and he is doing better than I thought he would, but let's not kid ourselves and think he's a strong candidate. He won because people hated Hillary. Trump needs a weak opponent. Bernie is probably the weakest opponent Trump could face in the general election.

    Every idiot who ever supported him. "The only problem with socialism is power gets abused," they say. "We just have to get the right guy in charge."

    How silly they will feel when they're praying for his old ass to die.
