(4,211 posts)You don't think Marissa or her cohort were operatives... and perhaps you're right. And perhaps you're not. Either way, there is enough evidence out there to indicate something illegitimate is going on behind the scenes. You can see some of that evidence at the links below.

Add to that evidence, everyone knows politics is a dirty game of gotchas and targets of opportunity. Actions like this are consistent with GOP operative attacks... even some less scrupulous Dinos have resorted to such attacks.
So while you're willing to dismiss these concerns and try to characterize them as utterly tone deaf, patronizing, and obsessive,
you've done nothing to address the reasonable concerns. All you have done here, really, is try to attack Bernie's supporters for wanting to defend their candidate... as most supporters for any candidate would.
