Senator Bernie “Thin Skin” Sanders complains that the world isn’t being nice to him.
Hahaha! Does anyone still doubt Sanders comparison to Trump? Control the press so I can win. Hate women, call them crooked, anything to advance their authoritarian cause. No solutions, just mantras that appeal to the masses.
Give us your tax returners, Senator, we got you figured.
FFS Sander’s tactics and thin skin is so eerily similar to the GOP victimization strategy. He doesn’t seem to be able to conduct a campaign absent the attacks on his real or imagined detractors which then leads to division in the Democratic Party. Has he declared his membership in the Democratic Party yet by the way?
Bernie, stop whining. Do you think the Trump campaign and Republicans are going to give you any slack at all? Please, you are a millionaire.
No tears.
“After mentioning ThinkProgress articles critical of fellow Democratic presidential candidates Sens. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA)”
God, I really, really, really want Sanders to get asked if he thinks that Warren DNA test was a great idea.
Maybe a little less time on angry letters, little more time scrubbing the 1040. Tick-tock, those are promised tomorrow.
Huh? Is this worth the mental effort to try and figure out what he is bitchin’ about?
Big Ag Bernie is just as corrupt as he claims everyone else in the primary is. His record on taking ag money and authoring ag subsidies (ie corporate welfare) is disgustingly hypocritical.
This is reminding me of Biden’s surprise that anyone would care about his handsy history. Bernie had a long time to figure out that his financial status would need defusing when it became public knowledge. And now he’s acting surprised that it’s an issue. Wants people to ignore it.
I don’t care that he’s reasonably well off, but the lack of political smarts is one more mark against him for me (among others). Our candidate in 2020 has to be able to anticipate attacks much better than this. And not be a whiner about it. We’ve got enough of that in the WH right now.

… Ummmm… Not sure that blackmail and threats are a helpful route to go.
Bye-bye, Bernie.
Did he call it fake news?
Well, the current White House has a lot of experience trying to decipher the befuddled moanings of old white men, so…maybe ask someone there?
Yeah, he is making it clear that he is threatening to sic his followers on them.
Well, if the only thing they show (if we ever see them) is that he’s a millionaire, that should be what we expect. He’s been a Congressman and Senator since 1991. If he’s mis-managed his finances that badly on that salary that he’s not a millionaire, that would be a story.
OT.
ETA.
Start the proceedings, Nancy. Yeah, it’s time now.
Thank you for sharing that tweet.
This cranky petty manner of his, the odd entitlement that leaks out, makes me so nervous. It’s a massive target, an easy way in for the opposition to attack, in much the same way they used Howard Dean’s war-whoop. It’s the tone of it all, beyond the specific content. Perhaps I’m alone in this, but considering what happened last time, well…
Trump has tripled down on his bullying tone, his swathes of anger and petulance, and his base is increasingly empowered by it.
Shut up, Bernie. You and your supporters are one reason Trump is in the White House. You and your supporters smeared Hillary Clinton, over and over again, even long after you had any chance for the nomination. You are the Democratic nominee over my dead body.
