Feb 2020

it should be noted that in Nigeria being gay is illegal. I haven't a clue if that Pete supporter is gay or not but what do you want to bet that the Nigerian police are looking into whether he is at this very second. All because Bernie supporters, including a journalist it should be noted, doxed him. I hope he isn't gay and doesn't know any gays, I also hope that winds up mattering to the Nigerian police.

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

It's not a "bloc" of voters - it's a subset of supporters who have been vicious and threatening.... George II Feb 2020 #18

Like the subset of the people who Bloomberg stopped-and-frisked that were actually criminals? DanTex Feb 2020 #21

A totally different topic, NOTHING to do with Sanders supporters. George II Feb 2020 #53

It does actually. It's the principle of holding a whole group responsible for the actions of DanTex Feb 2020 #54

How about this from a woman who is now Sanders' National Press Secretary? George II Feb 2020 #56

Umm, that was 2017, she wasn't part of the campaign. Have you heard the stuff Bloomberg said DanTex Feb 2020 #58

Sanders people went after the people that work for him basically threatening them...so Bloomberg Demsrule86 Feb 2020 #23

Uhh, no, they didn't. One random twitter post was made as an analogy to the DCCC's blacklisting. DanTex Feb 2020 #29

Always the excuses... it is the campaign. Demsrule86 Feb 2020 #34

You're ignoring basic facts here. It's not the campaign. And the DCCC did do blacklisting. DanTex Feb 2020 #38

Exactly! jrthin Feb 2020 #57

I disagree with that tweet, but it's the opinion of one person not part of any campaign. DanTex Feb 2020 #51
