2016 Postmortem
Showing Original Post only (View all)Why would Bernie fire low level staffers making $15/hr.... [View all]
Instead of telling Tad Devine to take a pay cut less than the $830k/month he currently makes?
Former staffers said they were pissed because they were told they would be employed through June.
And its not just Tad, he had an army of consultants, ad agencies, and advisers that he spent almost $100 million on; more than 2x what Hillary has spent.
Even in his own campaign he couldnt stop all the money from going to the top 1%?

Don't play coy. You work in an industry that is made almost entirely of short term

You do lie, JaneyVee. Tad is a consultant who passes on the money to staffers - lots of them

More important question - why does anyone care? Surely more important things to think about.

It's a legitimate question. Some folks were only getting $10/hr. Sanders' supporters really squirmed

Do you have a credible link for all your "hot inside information"? Perhaps the National Enquirer
