though if we want to do the usual armchair psychoanalyzing, it makes sense to me that Sanders would appeal to trump on an instinctual interpersonal level compared to Warren and Biden

The Sanders campaign, while being in service of a much more competent human being in practically every way imaginable, is also working the cult of personality angle so the affinity is unsurprising to me.

good news everyone, we caught the trump team in an irreconcilable contradiction! we got him! we got him!!!!
Congress tried to impeach both Nixon and Clinton for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress. It’s very hard for Dershowitz to argue that neither one is an impeachable offense. https://t.co/LX2g27LgBI— Renato Mariotti (@renato_mariotti) January 17, 2020

Trump appears to be aware of some of the history, tweeting in 2016: "Does President Obama ever discuss the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor while he's in Japan? Thousands of American lives lost."
Does Shinzō Abe ever discuss the atomic bomb attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki while he's in the U.S.?

In a Capitol Hill hallway yesterday, CNN’s Manu Raju asked appointed Sen. Martha McSally (R-Ariz.) if she’d consider examining fresh evidence as part of Donald Trump’s impeachment trial. As you’ve probably heard, the Arizona Republican did not handle the question well.“You’re a liberal hack,” McSally told a respected congressional journalist. “I’m not talking to you. You’re a liberal hack.”Republican politics being what it is in the Trump era, McSally’s office registered the domain name LiberalHack.com almost immediately after the incident. Soon after, the GOP senator asked donors to reward her outburst with campaign contributions. Last night, the Arizonan celebrated the incident on Fox News, as “You’re a liberal hack, buddy” t-shirts went on sale online.
