but the framing of that headline and the author's disappointment she didn't go for more soundbites against Trump is not quite honest and also reflects a sensationalist mindset. It's almost deliberately framed to cause resentment and unsurprisingly, it attracted many anti-Dem Berners who just love to shit on the Dem party. A goldmine for bot operations.
