Feb 2020

but they were out in public.

The emails were not public in any way, in fact, they were hacked.

Also they just express a desire to beat Bernie, which is normal for anyone running against Bernie (or anyone else for that matter). That's different from "F ---- Bernie."

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