Especially when said "issue" was canned months ago. joshcryer Jan 2017 #5

No. Behaving principled and non-partisan when it comes to standing by the ISSUES rather than JCanete Jan 2017 #10

It's hard not to take the bait, but we shouldn't. Dustlawyer Jan 2017 #50

No. We should give Republicans a taste of their own obstructionism medicine. Period. Even the bills BlueCaliDem Jan 2017 #121

Thank you, BlueCaliDem! Cha Jan 2017 #84

You're welcome, Cha. It needed to be said. Oh how some of us so quickly forget the extreme BlueCaliDem Jan 2017 #123

It isn't necessary to express "delight" about working with the Minotaur. pnwmom Jan 2017 #37

he didn't. he said IF, and that really was the important caveat you are intentionally missing. nt JCanete Jan 2017 #61

The "if" implies that it's possible DT will change -- and it normalizes him. pnwmom Jan 2017 #62

no. you infer that. It does not imply that. Again, from the mouth of a person who calls Trump a JCanete Jan 2017 #63

I said that the "if" implies that it is possible -- not probable. pnwmom Jan 2017 #74

THANK YOU ! uponit7771 Jan 2017 #91

Worker "policies" he's using as propaganda. joshcryer Jan 2017 #80

I assure you that what comes up with will be 100x worse than TPP. joshcryer Jan 2017 #76

Well who is believing this though? That's your narrative and it is hogwash. It isn't meted out JCanete Jan 2017 #93

Tell me why Sanders thinks he can work with tRump on pro worker policies.. sheshe2 Jan 2017 #141

Short answer? He doesn't. nt JCanete Jan 2017 #146

In 2008, the GOP lost everything/ Demsrule86 Jan 2017 #181

You're inserting a lot of shit that was not said or implied...to suggest that Sanders, who JCanete Jan 2017 #6

I purposely didn't name Sanders. I was speaking much more generally. pnwmom Jan 2017 #8

sure, but other people mentioned sanders, and then I did a search, and lo and behold, Sanders said JCanete Jan 2017 #13

Bernie could go on record without saying he'd be "delighted" to work with the monster. pnwmom Jan 2017 #38

Never known Bernie to be other that kacekwl Jan 2017 #48

again, that's your absolute bullshit interpretation. nt JCanete Jan 2017 #97

The words had the effect of normalizing DT and taking him at his word. pnwmom Jan 2017 #39

fucking Christ. Exactly as Sanders has said over and over and over. He calls him a pathological liar JCanete Jan 2017 #98

They are delighted about the ISSUE, not the person.. whathehell Jan 2017 #41

Sanders said he was delighted to work with Trump. True or false? yardwork Jan 2017 #25

actually false. Though I don't care. The insinuations are well beyond whether or not JCanete Jan 2017 #28

Did Sanders ever say anything similar about working with President Obama? yardwork Jan 2017 #96

is this a serious question? Do you want me to find a time where he used the exact word? JCanete Jan 2017 #99

You seem upset. My question was sincere. yardwork Jan 2017 #102

"If President Trump is serious abt a new policy 2 help American workers, then I wd be delighted..." DRoseDARs Jan 2017 #36

Oh yeah.... they have not stopped... Raster Jan 2017 #56

I didn't even mention his name in the OP, or refer to any specific incident, pnwmom Jan 2017 #150

you already responded to this post, and I responded back as to your "not mentioning" JCanete Jan 2017 #155

Obama never said he was delighted about anything to do with DT. pnwmom Jan 2017 #158

No offense, but your statement is weak at best... Talk Is Cheap Jan 2017 #79

That is a truly Spicerian statement. n/t QC Jan 2017 #82

DT lies with every breath. And Sanders is not a Democrat, by his own choice and repeated testimony. Hekate Jan 2017 #69

Isn't it stated very clearly here to not bash Democrats or allies? Sanders being specifically named? JCanete Jan 2017 #118

Oh, was she talking about Sanders specifically? He was not named in the OP.... Hekate Jan 2017 #129

I don't think that op was bashing, whether she had listed his name or not. JCanete Jan 2017 #136

Which Democrat are we talking about? I'm confused. pnwmom Jan 2017 #152

It's a mistake, in my opinion, for anyone to do anything that legitimizes Trump. NurseJackie Jan 2017 #64

Bernie always has and always will be guided by his principles Tom Rinaldo Jan 2017 #65

Sure, and his principles are that he is a gadfly Hekate Jan 2017 #72

which is far far better than no gadflies. nt JCanete Jan 2017 #120

Well, when your target is always your supposed friends because you want them to be perfect.... Hekate Jan 2017 #131

made-up narrative. "want them to be perfect..." "always target your friends..." JCanete Jan 2017 #157

How can anyone be "delighted" to work with a crocodile in a swamp? pnwmom Jan 2017 #78

The "delight" would be in easing hardships for most Americans Tom Rinaldo Jan 2017 #85

That's what should be said then. pnwmom Jan 2017 #88

He has to live in reality melman Jan 2017 #100

I haven't heard Elizabeth Warren say she'll be delighted to work with DT pnwmom Jan 2017 #104
