Reuters rewrite on Sanders Pope visit is something. Discussion of moral economy changed to handshake, nothing more.

9. Well one of them is running for office, and one of them not so much.

Soon, neither of them will be running for office, and and they each will be back to their regular day jobs. Spit if you must, but you know inside it's true.
