(43,138 posts)You are engaged in clear and selective cherry-picking and attempted omissions of key facts that occurred AFTER your articles.
I also already showed that Sanders never took an official public stance.
Of course the hearings were contentious. Tanden slated and smeared Sanders and many others for years (and she apologised) but even then, he never said NO, publicly on the record, like Machin came out on February 19th and did.
Biden eventually pulled her nomination of March 2nd, as I already showed, as he could find no Rethug to cross over and support her, which was needed due to Manchin's defection.
Manchin was the first and only Democratic Senator to officially say he was a NO.
The case is CLOSED.
You cannot selectively and falsely rewrite history to suit your clear anti-Sanders (and anti-AOC and other progressives deemed targets by you and others) agenda. People will hopefully always be there to correct the record.
