(31,261 posts)86. You don't think the book buying with campaign funds won't hurt Bernie?
That has the potential to strip away everything that Bernie says that he is. If Bernie starts to be seen as just another person that used politics to enrich himself or herself, his allure to progressive voters gets blown out of the water. I believe that Warren or Buttigieg are going to profit big if the campaign book buy becomes an issue.
