Assigning Biden an F- on climate change is a huge distortion of the actual policy stakes.
Sunrise did it to exaggerate the stakes of a Biden-Bernie race but it now serves to wildly underplay the stakes of a Biden-Trump race. https://twitter.com/NathanJRobinson/status/1248273695728111616">https://twitter.com/NathanJRo...

There’s nothing wrong with criticizing a candidate’s policy positions — Bernie’s staunch anti-nuclear views, for example, are counterproductive on climate change.
But it would be crazy to react to that by lying and saying Bernie is no better than Trump on climate.

The Sunrise people I know are all sensible and I’m sure they will try to pivot and tell people, correctly, that the climate stakes in Biden-Trump are large.
But the false idea that Biden is an F- on climate will continue to circulate in anti-anti-Trump leftwing media forever.
