Claim: “Two-thirds of Americans disapprove of Donald Trump not wearing a face mask in public.” (Darren Jackson, 2020-05-27)
Evidence (2021-11-05): Trump gets much lower marks on his handling of the coronavirus pandemic. Just over one-third of Americans (35%) approve of how Trump has handled the coronavirus pandemic, while 65% disapprove. More than three in four Republicans (78%), compared to only 29% of independents and 7% of Democrats, approve of how the president has handled the pandemic. Republicans who trust Fox News most for television news (94%) are much more likely than those who rely on any other news source (67%) to approve of the president on this issue. [...] Most Americans (78%) say they always wear a mask in public places to protect themselves against COVID-19 transmission, compared to 19% who say they wear a mask sometimes and only 3% who say they never wear a mask. Nine in ten Democrats (90%), 78% of independents, and 65% of Republicans say they always wear a mask in public places. White evangelical Protestants stand out among religious groups as less likely than others to report wearing a mask all the time in public (63% vs. 77% and higher among all other groups). Women are also more likely than men to report always wearing a mask (81% vs. 74%). Seniors ages 65 and over (87%) are more likely than younger Americans ages 18–29 (73%), Americans ages 30–49 (74%), and Americans ages 50–64 (79%) to say they always wear masks.

Evidence (2020-12-14): 2. Two-thirds (66%) of Americans disapprove of the way Donald Trump is handling the response to Floyd’s death. [...] 3. Sixty percent of Americans disapprove of the way President Trump is handling the response to the coronavirus, compared to 57% last week and 54% in mid-April [...] The newest ABC News/Ipsos poll finds that Americans continue to be divided on President Trump’s handling of the coronavirus response, with a majority disapproving. This comes as most express concern about the pandemic, with a quarter saying they’ve grown more pessimistic in the last few days.
Claim: “Two-thirds of Americans disapprove of Donald Trump not wearing a face mask in public.” (Darren Jackson, 2020-05-27)
Evidence (2023-03-31): Wearing masks is much more common among Democrats than Republicans. More than eight in 10 (81 percent) Democrats say they always wear a mask when leaving the house, while 55 percent of Republicans say the same. [...] There are larger partisan divisions about a national mask mandate than there are in mask usage. More than nine in 10 (93 percent) Democrats say they support passing a national mandate to require people wear a mask in public places to reduce the spread of COVID-19. Less than half (46 percent) of Republicans support such a policy. [...] Predictably, Democrats and Republicans differ sharply in their views. Seventy-two percent of Democrats completely disagree that wearing a mask is more about being politically correct, while 39 percent of Republicans say the same. Forty-five percent of Republicans somewhat or completely agree that wearing a mask is more about being politically correct than an important public health measure.

Evidence (2020-08-05): Most parents disapprove of the way the Trump administration has handled the issue of school reopening — as do most adults overall. Among parents, 63 percent disapprove while 36 percent approve. More than 4 in 10 "strongly" disapprove, roughly three times the share of those who strongly approve. Views of parents are mirrored among the broader public, with an identical 63 percent of Americans disapproving of Trump’s handling of school reopenings in a parallel survey. [...] Republicans are less likely to favor mask requirements; still, 59 percent of them support this for students and 72 percent for teachers. More than 9 in 10 Democrats support students and teachers wearing masks and more than 8 in 10 independents say the same. Kaizhou Zhu, a Republican living in Concord, Mass., said his children went to on-site camp this summer and successfully wore masks. He’s confident the same will be the case inside schools, and he supports reopening them.
Claim: “Two-thirds of Americans disapprove of Donald Trump not wearing a face mask in public.” (Darren Jackson, 2020-05-27)
Evidence (2023-10-16): Most Americans appear to be following the guidance of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that recommend continuing to wear masks when in public. With near unanimity, those who are already at least partially vaccinated are just as likely as those who are not vaccinated but plan to be to say they have worn a mask outside their home in the past seven days. [...] Americans' Face Mask Usage Varies Greatly by Demographics (July 13, 2020) [...] The rise in daily new COVID-19 cases in the U.S. comes as states are attempting to reopen their economies. For the first time, a majority of Americans (54%) say they are worried about the lack of social distancing in their local area. Eighty-six percent of U.S. adults now report wearing a face mask when outside their home, the highest Gallup has measured to date. However, Republicans remain much less likely than Democrats to say they wear a face mask in public.
Claim: “You’ve raised a lot more money than I have, Bernie.” (Joe Biden, 2020-03-05)
Evidence (2020-03-05): Sanders had raised roughly $71 million more than Biden through early March, taking account of both money raised by the candidates’ campaigns and by outside groups supporting the candidate. Combined, Sanders and his allied groups have raised more than $180 million, compared with $109 million for Biden and his allied groups. Sanders does have an edge in "small-dollar" donations — those below $200. About 55% of Sanders’ money was raised that way, compared with 36% for Biden.

Evidence (2024-08-15): "I mean, you want to run for office, can you? Yup, you can," Sanders said. "You’ve got to have a certain number of signatures. But if you’re going to win, and I have 10 times more money than you do, I will beat you 95% of the time." "Maybe if you’re really an exceptional candidate and I’m a real idiot, you will beat me once in a while. But by and large, money people will win. So if you’re asking me, are we a democracy, in one sense, we are," he continued. But money, he said, is the "real power."

Evidence (2024-02-07): Sanders: The reason is that the pharmaceutical industry is an extremely greedy industry. Their goal is simply to make as much money as they possibly can. Every other major industrialized country has—in one form or another—national healthcare programs, which, among other things, guarantees healthcare to all of their people, but also puts them in a position to negotiate the prices of drugs with the companies.

Evidence (2016-03-01): Bernie Sanders's Big Money [...] When Bernie Sanders makes a demand for money, he gets it. After winning the New Hampshire primary, the Democratic presidential candidate broadcast a plea. "I’m going to hold a fundraiser right here, right now, across America," Sanders declared, urging anyone who would listen to visit his website and make a donation—"whether it’s 10 bucks, or 20 bucks, or 50 bucks." Money poured in at a rapid clip. By the end of the next day, the campaign had collected a staggering $8 million. [...] Sanders’s campaign proves that it is possible to mount a competitive presidential bid without relying on super PACs. That alone could encourage candidates without deep ties to the political establishment to run for office. The success of the campaign’s fundraising strategy shows that it is possible to challenge the status quo simply by refusing to give in to it. Still, it is ironic that a campaign built around the idea of getting big money out of politics has infused so much money into the political process. To some extent, the political establishment is taking Sanders seriously precisely because he has raised so much money, a metric that risks reinforcing conventional wisdom that only candidates capable of marshaling significant sums deserve mainstream attention. The campaign’s towering fundraising benchmarks could also inadvertently set the bar higher for future insurgent campaigns looking to compete in presidential elections.

Evidence (2019-06-26): The latest-available data back up his statement, and it appears the gap is widening. [...] Sanders’ campaign told us his claim is based on a 2017 study from the left-leaning Institute for Policy Studies. It used Forbes’ list of the 400 richest Americans and data from a gold-standard federal government source on wealth. Those are 2016 figures, from the Federal Reserve Board’s Survey of Consumer Finances, which are updated every three years.

Evidence (2023-05-02): "Are you basically saying that once you get to $999 million, the government should confiscate all the rest?" he was asked—to which Sanders responded: "Yeah." "You may disagree with me, but I think people can make it on $999 million," Sanders added. "I think that they can survive just fine." [...] Sanders has long touted the idea of imposing much higher taxes on the wealthiest factions of U.S. society, proposing a wealth tax in 2019 when he was running to be the Democratic candidate for the 2020 presidential election.

Evidence (2016-10-02): "Internet fundraising is about taking potential energy and converting it into kinetic energy, and nobody has done that better than Bernie Sanders," said Ari Rabin-Havt, a veteran Democratic operative who hosts a show about progressive politics on SiriusXM satellite radio. "Tim and his team are maximizing that. Their emails are superior. They really tap into small-donor psychology. Small donors go where they’re needed. If you’re a candidate who can raise all the money in the world from the establishment, they don’t think they’re needed. Bernie Sanders, his whole message is that he’s running against the establishment, and that their $20 matters." [...] Through the end of 2015, the Sanders campaign had raised $54 million in donations of $200 or less, accounting for 72 percent of its total fundraising, according to FEC filings. That’s far more total cash ― and a far higher percentage of overall cash ― from small donors than Clinton (who raised 16 percent of her $116 million from small donors) or any of the GOP presidential candidates. In fact, the percentage of cash Sanders is raising from small donors is more than twice the percentage Obama raised from small donors during his groundbreaking 2008 general election campaign, which his supporters dubbed a "small donor revolution." (To be sure, the percentage of money from small donors tends to decrease as campaigns wear on and many small donors continue giving, and ultimately cross the $200 threshold).

Evidence (2020-02-28): Senator Bernie Sanders has enjoyed a remarkably long career as the ultimate political outsider. His signature message of income inequality, delivered with a metronomic, almost numbing consistency, has often seemed like the only thing one needed to know about him—that is, until he surged to the forefront of the 2020 Democratic field. Now, just days before a slew of wildly consequential primaries from South Carolina on Saturday to California and Texas and beyond on Super Tuesday, people suddenly are discovering or revisiting with a new interest a trove of revealing Bernie-ana. What do voters need to know? Here, culled from books, extensive media coverage and the archives of POLITICO Magazine, is a quick primer on the life of Bernard Sanders, born on September 8, 1941, in Brooklyn, New York, the son of a Polish immigrant, a democratic socialist who also happens to be a millionaire, and the leader of a progressive movement that has convulsed a party with which he long has battled from inside and out. [...] He started a business producing low-budget filmstrips about Vermont and New England history that he sold to schools. He made a 30-minute documentary on Eugene Debs, a prominent labor organizer in the early 1900s and the five-time presidential candidate of the Socialist Party of America—whom Sanders has cited as a hero.

Evidence (2024-01-29): BERNIE SANDERS: Well, there are a lot of factors for that. I think what we've seen in the last 40 or 50 years is a very concerted effort on the part of the 1 per cent in corporate America to make sure that governmental policy works benefit them and disadvantages ordinary Americans, and the result of it is that right now we have more income and wealth inequality than we have ever had in the history of this country. [...] BERNIE SANDERS: Oh no. No, it has deteriorated very substantially, and the result is that in every election the people on top are spending more and more money to elect the candidates they want to see win and to defeat their opponents. [...] BERNIE SANDERS: He is going to have to do a lot better. We are working with, to be honest with you, we are working with the administration on that.

Evidence (2021-09-17): Trillions Of Dollars Can Be Raised By Closing Tax Loopholes, Sen. Sanders Says [...] BERNIE SANDERS: Well, I think there's a lot of ongoing discussion as to where we will end up. But, Noel, at a time when we have massive levels of income and wealth inequality, when you literally have billionaires paying nothing in federal income taxes, when dozens of major profitable corporations pay nothing in federal income taxes, it is clear to me that the time is now to demand that the wealthy and large corporations start paying their fair share of taxes. There is no question in my mind that we can raise many trillions of dollars by undoing a lot of the loopholes that currently exist. [...] SANDERS: Look. And there's still a lot of debate. And you have - we have not yet seen the final product. But what we are trying to do is raise a sufficient sum of money to address many of the long-term structural problems facing working families. And that is the crisis with regard to child care and childhood poverty in America. We've got to deal with housing. We've got to deal with home health care. I'll tell you what else we have to deal with. We have to deal with the existential threat of climate change. This bill will put more money into transforming our energy system away from fossil fuel than any legislation by far in the history of our country.

Evidence (2020-04-09): For the 2020 campaign, Sanders brought in an astounding $181m in donations, more than half of which came in contributions smaller than $200. Joe Biden, by contrast, raised $88m, most of which came from larger donations. [...] Solomon also contends that animosity from the mainstream media was perhaps the greatest obstacle facing the campaign - and one that could not have been avoided. While Sanders's grass-roots fundraising machine gave him a massive financial advantage over Biden, Solomon says it was more than balanced out by the warm treatment the former vice-president received from the press. [...] The reality was unavoidable, and on Wednesday Sanders acknowledged it.

Evidence (2016-04-19): Bernie Sanders is raising staggering amounts of money through the ActBlue fundraising site. Much of it comes from small donors. [...] When the 2016 election began, the idea was that big money from big donors would dominate the election. Instead, many candidates with robust super PACs have failed; Donald Trump has loaned himself money; and Bernie's raised more than $112 million (accounting for 82% of contributions to his campaign) through ActBlue, an online donation service for Democrats, specializing in small donors. [...] And Sanders has indeed raised an insane amount of money from the actual small donations — he's literally been given $10 about 1.4 million times.

("This is an actual U.S., federally sponsored program," he told me. "I’m doing my patriotic duty.") Mosler estimated that he has contributed about three million dollars to the M.M.T. movement in the course of a couple of decades, and, "if anything, I get kind of defensive about not having spent more." The money has subsidized academic posts, conferences, and scholarships and has helped turn institutions like the Levy Institute, at Bard College, and the University of Missouri–Kansas City into fertile grounds for M.M.T. thought.

Evidence (2020-03-05): Biden says Sanders has raised ‘a lot more money.’ He’s right [...] Here, we’ll focus on the last part of Biden’s statement, that Sanders has "raised a lot more money" than Biden has. [...] Combined, Sanders and his allied groups have raised more than $180 million, compared with $109 million for Biden and his allied groups. That’s a lead of about $71 million for Sanders — a figure we think qualifies as "a lot more." The money spent by outside groups supporting Biden narrows the margin a bit, but not much.

Evidence (2012-08-22): Bernie: More than that. [...] Bernie: The answer has everything to do with money. You have a lot of candidates who will raise many millions of dollars, and 1 percent of their contributions will be less than $200. So that’s number one. When you are dependent on big money for your contributions to run your campaign, that clearly influences your worldview and your approach to politics. Second of all, in terms of the way things are done in Washington, lobbying is very significant. The big money interests have an enormous number of lobbyists who come from both political parties. So a good lobbying firm will have on its roster, on its payroll, former congressmen of both parties. So if it’s a Democrat they need to lobby, they’ll send a Democrat. If it’s a Republican, they’ll send a Republican. And these are people who you know, who served with you, and you even know their families. And that has a very significant impact on influencing legislation. So money plays a very, very important role.
