END TO END BERNERS: The Official Bernie Sanders 2020 Crew thread

He only stood down from his dastardly attack when Sir Steyer swooped in and said, "M'lady? Dost this Socialist offend thy honor?"

I’ve resisted telling this story before, but:

I had dinner with Virginia at a professors house in college, and when I said (correctly) that Rahm Emmanuel volunteered with the IDF she called me a PLO agent. https://t.co/JgtbKxJ2hT

The thing is, warren and company are being explicitly misleading with this. Worst case scenario, bernie said “a woman couldn’t win” because of the sexism of the electorate. He certainly didn’t say women weren’t capable of being president. But in her framing she isn’t giving the necessary context—so it might as well be a lie.

imo if you keep talking about this, you make it worse

It’s transparently a tactical smear so it’s dumb for her to act aghast that he “called her a liar.”

Ok putting it aside

Just stop, treeship. In your worst case scenario, Warren is perhaps not giving all the beneficial context to Sanders. But if it's worst case, then Sanders is explicitly lying about it. How the heck is it then still Warren who is the bad person here for you?

The voice of reason

thank god finally fred b is weighing in on this

Brad otmfm.
In other news, he just received this key endorsement:

fred please shut up too

How the heck is it then still Warren who is the bad person here for you?

yeah snitching is a virtue

xp srsly just take it the primaries thread (I mean please don't, but if you must)

xps Bernie’s mountain dog

so... how's the circular firing squad going?

I'll feel much better if/when it reassembles with Biden at the center

been stewing on this and the most charitable reading is that Sanders inartfully voiced reasonable concerns about the way Trump would weaponize gender in 2020.

but Warren et al have clearly decided to go the bad faith route so... I’m kinda like fuck that shit and doubling down on Bernie contributions and going to commit to making calls.

yes I’ll still vote for her in the general even if GA isn’t a swing state, but this is fucking gross.

friends, it doesn’t matter. this is gossip bullshit. stop talking about it

^^^^^

also i feel like it is primarily the media's fault

as usual

would’ve been so easily avoided but here we are

neither Sanders nor Warren is lying.

the chocolate with nuts poll needs this level of chill the fuck out enthusiasm..

I don’t think anyone’s a liar, but someone as savvy as Warren knew exactly how this would be fanned in the media.

like if you think your policies are better for working ppl then stand on that. but ‘Bernie did a sexism at me two years ago and I just kept it to myself until my polls numbers started slipping’ is just smdh

‘Bernie did a sexism at me two years ago and I just kept it to myself until my polls numbers started slipping’

hm

log off imo

exiling myself to the chocolate with nuts thread until further notice

I give even less of a shit today

neither Sanders nor Warren is lying.

^^^

I think we better quit

A+ quality content

Whats the consensus here on whether this incident is good or bad for Warren's campaign?

Well, it’s Nate Silver but...

In our poll, Warren's numbers on electability improved last night. Guess who else's improved the most? Klobuchar. So getting that discussion out in the open may well have been helpful to her vs. voters holding an implicit bias against women candidates. https://t.co/OmPf5KSeuO

Klobuchar is still running? kudos.

If Warren gains any from this, can only really see it from Mayor Pete voters not Bernie voters, unless I'm reading it wrong?

The Klobmentum is unstoppable.

Kim has a recording of the conversation iirc.

Who's Kim?

Great!

Bernie wouldn’t answer questions about the ~ moment ~ just now walking into the Senate, only about USMCA.

He shot me a look after I asked him if he was a liar, but stayed quiet and went into an elevator.

Mrs. West. Oblique reference to another dumb he said/she said tabloid story, sorry. xp

apparently MSNBC had a "body language expert" on a few hours back to "prove" Bernie was lying. Very cool!

apparently that "body language expert" (lol) is also an anti-vaxxer

probably also Rachel Maddow's dentist

Can’t wait for shit for brain “Fred B” defense of Joy Reid And her homophobe bs
Maybe he’ll revive Nerdstrom to take the heat for that

Is this the body language thing?

THIS IS HUGE: bernie has secured the endorsement of william 'bill' s. preston, esq

Bernie now has my endorsement for the Primary. Will vote Dem in the General, whoever it is. https://t.co/nV9tQ8mDdi

— Alex Winter (@Winter) January 20, 2020

the NYT itself ran a story last year about how Sanders worked closely w/ Harry Reid on "practical" political matters

ie they are now lying to protect the threat to their profits
