in reply to the OP headline

Top Sanders consultants leave 2020 campaign

Tad Devine was a witness for the special counsel office’s prosecution against Paul Manafort. That's his only connection to Bernie's campaign, long before he worked for Sanders Presidential campaign.

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

I can't imagine that this is a good thing. comradebillyboy Feb 2019 #1

Everything is better with less Tad Devine Orangepeel Feb 2019 #5

What's funny is BannonsLiver Feb 2019 #10

Not if he stays in. Of course, Russia's a big player Hortensis Feb 2019 #11

I would think how so many people on DU feel about Tad Devine - that this would be a positive for Nanjeanne Feb 2019 #2

Let me lay it out for you... for many here, NOTHING is EVER positive for Bernie!! InAbLuEsTaTe Feb 2019 #3

Oh Gee. Ya think? Nanjeanne Feb 2019 #4

It's just so sad to see. InAbLuEsTaTe Feb 2019 #12

Putin uses him to help defeat Democrats Hortensis Feb 2019 #25

Paul Manafort was never on Bernie's campaign. nt Autumn Feb 2019 #9

That doesn't change the reason for the question. R B Garr Feb 2019 #13

Manafort has never had anything to do with Bernie Sanders campaign. Why ask if he's Autumn Feb 2019 #15

The internet is full of their shared history. R B Garr Feb 2019 #16

Manafort and Devine worked together but that ended before Sanders. Autumn Feb 2019 #17

The internet has many stories that conflict with that. R B Garr Feb 2019 #18

This was brought up last year when Devine was called to testify by Mueller, against Manafort. Autumn Feb 2019 #19

It is fact that both ran the opposition campaigns R B Garr Feb 2019 #20

No, I responded to your question if Manafort had not been replaced yet, in response Autumn Feb 2019 #22

It actually wasn't a literal question, as anyone with a TV or R B Garr Feb 2019 #23

You may want to check Mueller's exhibit list Skidmore Feb 2019 #28

Manafort and Devine both both worked with Yanukovych from February 2010 until June 2014. Autumn Feb 2019 #29

Russians spent years Skidmore Feb 2019 #30

Devine also worked on Al Gore's, John Kerry's and Jimmy Carter's campaigns. nt Autumn Feb 2019 #31

That was years before the current Russian criminal R B Garr Feb 2019 #35

Well, that can't be good news for Senator Sanders. MineralMan Feb 2019 #14

Yes! I would like to know Cha Feb 2019 #36

Releasing taxes, dumping Tad Devine... all good moves. tinrobot Feb 2019 #27

Did Bernie release his tax returns or is he just promising to release them sometime down the road? Blue_true Feb 2019 #42

So far, just a promise. tinrobot Feb 2019 #44

Just like in 2016. If his tax returns are so simply, what causes the delay. Blue_true Feb 2019 #45

Interesting. Starry Messenger Feb 2019 #32

From CNBC article I linked above emulatorloo Feb 2019 #34

Hmmmm Starry Messenger Feb 2019 #37

They covertly worked for Trump last time. Maybe they are going to openly do it this time. nt Blue_true Feb 2019 #43
