8. I've noticed the spamming of Bernie positive stories.

And when called on it, each reponse is a variation of the "it's called vetting when it's a positive story about Bernie."

Yet do the precise same thing with a negative story and it magically morphs into "it's an attack on Bernie from all sides!!!"

Taken together and viewed as an aggregate, I'd call that an accurate indicator of some good, old-fashioned trolling.

Don't get me wrong. I like Bernie. A lot. He's a great politician, and offers a lot to the senate and his constituents. But some of the more... vociferous and ardent of his supporters really do reflect very poorly on the guy.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

No Dan. The real question is the question I asked you. calguy Jan 2020 #21

Well, that's your question. My question is when is the media going to drop the Bernie Bro thing. DanTex Jan 2020 #22
