Surely you understand the difference between a primary and a general election. What works with the democratic base doesnt necesarily work with independents.
The "rigged primary" talk would have already been an active discussion.
Let me know when you've worked out the math between hiring Sirota under the table and supporting Palestine that makes the former outweigh the latter.
This hasn't stopped you from mocking very nonsensical things about Beto....so no you don't get a free pass to dismiss your candidate lying to the press and hiding hiring purely so he can break a pledge he made and try not to get caught doing so.
Considering their opinion on Bernie's tax returns, they are being massive hypocrites here
Bernie made a pledge he and his staff wouldnt attack the other primary candidates, to stay positive within the party.
Aren't leftists constantly accused of "purity tests" and being "divisive"? Now that we don't apply the test to our boy Bernie suddenly they demand us to apply the test?
Alright, thanks! Honestly, to play my cards right I should probably apply to a lot of them. I actually like a lot of the candidates when it comes to their politics (thank god Medicare-for-All has become more mainstream), so that's not really a problem for me. Here's to hoping the 2020 Democratic campaign cycle doesn't get as hostile and toxic as it did in 2016 (yeah, guess I'm hopelessly naive).
Honestly I did voter registration stuff for so many months in the lead-up to the 2018 election that I'm pretty burnt out with it. I had both an internship and a lot of extracurricular stuff related to registering people to vote. I know it's for the greater good though so I'll still look at general Democratic Party internships and stuff.
I think it is honestly worst that he hired him and then covered it up so Sirota could attack Beto and Kamala in the press to hide the fact Bernie was breaking the pledge he made to not do so.
Dude, this is the kinda shit that gets you fired from jobs. This is not nothing, it's a pretty huge ethical breach on Sirota's part.
It doesn't bother you that he made the pledge and then covered it up that he hired Sirota to attack the other candidates to try and break it without getting caught?
Again, that you apparently don't think non-disclosure of conflicts of interest are problems ain't on anyone who's actually given pause by it
Lying to the press and breaking a pledge you just made and trying to cover it up. No biggie.
And if people continue to push for it Bernie should fire him and apologize publicly or whatever it is people want.
Honey, you're arguing with people who think that if someone's bothered or offended by something, they're only pretending so they can get a dig at Bernard.
So you are good with lying to the press, breaking campaign pledges and covering it up?
