Acknowledging that he has a corruption problem to face against Trump in the general is not the same as saying "I think he´s corrupt", which is not the point of the newsletter i received.
I'm actually starting to wonder what Bernie's actually aware of, if his campaign keeps doing stuff he doesn't know about. Are we sure he's not senile?
for the op-ed written by Zephyr Teachout? That doesn't seem likely
Fwiw I'm not change any of your minds anyway
you have your opinion and I have mine
I may actually be a completely insane person 🤷

You really shouldn't have to be constantly apologizing for your staff and surrogates bullshit.
That is.. Unless you generally suck at picking staff and it spills over to your surrogates.
This is worse than incompetence.
It's goddamned laziness.
I will never say I am the hardest working person, but when I do commit to a job, a presentation, a relation, or whatever other aspect of our lives requires work, I fucking commit to the work. I'm details-oriented; I want to know exactly where that address is (give me a zip code); I want to know how long this presentation is supposed to be and I want to get it down to a science; you want a word count? I'll write it to within 5 words, always over.
That's what I want in someone in a leadership, thus Presidential, role. I think Warren is that person; I though Hillary would be that person. Bernie isn't that person. He's a lazy ass.
Rose twitter appears to be upset with this response if the comments are an indicator.
More like CORY 2020 is out of the race so he is irrelevant.
(I think?)
Doing a mental 180 every day is tough. Kneejerk to whiplash and back again.
I don't think it's laziness.
He strikes me as someone who is more into big picture ideas than actual details orientation, and simply may not be very good at the latter.
Which I mean is not my cup of tea. But it appeals to some people.

Happy/impressed to see an apology here. Not the only one he needs to make by any means, but a good start
If you're not good at the details, you're extremely easy to manipulate. Look at Trump.
Am I imagining it or does it always seem to be Bernie apologizing for things his staff has done, and not so much other candidates?
Honestly, not the worst strategy to have surrogates do dumb attacks and swoop in as the peacemaker
I think Joe Biden is actually the same that way. He is not a details person.
Cf Hillary, Warren, probably Buttigieg.

His staff do more stupid shit. Because he hires shit people.
Bernie surrounding himself with shitty or dumb staff is a reoccurring problem. Good staffing is also one of the most important responsibilities of the Executive Branch too. So....yeah :/
I'd agree that Biden isn't a details person, but I think he would hire them.
Bernie is a big ideas guy who hires big ideas folks, and eventually down the line some 5th-level employee looks at the bullshit coming down and panics.
*whispers*
maybe it's because he sucks at picking staff.
Y'know, one of the most important aspects of being President.
Yeh, I mean it's fine if you balance it out with having details-oriented doers and implementers around you.
I don't think he hires big ideas people. I think he hires shit people like Turner, based more on kiss the ring.
I do wonder if Pelosi thought McConnell compressing the hell out of the trial with 12 hour days was likely when she finally sent over the articles.
what in the fresh hell is this? is this actually going to trial now or is this the terms to actual go to trial?
"My guy is only 50% bullshit; your guy is 60% bullshit! I have less shit!"
Fair point!
He can never admit any fault without saying "but others do it too!"
Of course. The only people who think that there was ever any chance of a real "trial" seem to all be on this forum.
It was always going to be a bullshit process ending in acquittal. It's possible they just dismiss outright (I think that's the best political outcome for us, so I don't expect Repubs will do it—even though they want more than anything to make it go away as soon as possible).
well I think the question some have been posing in this thread is whether or not Bernie has been the only candidate making apologies, or whether he's unique in having to make apologies. And the answer is clearly no. The fact that people don't remember other candidates faux pas, says more about how much Bernie occupies their mind. And then acting like im the one bringing it up when im simply answering questions posted in this thread...
Man this is some "not 30 years" or Dershowitz arguing his argument against Clinton matches up fine with his argument for Trump type stuff lol
Between this and his stance on the filibuster I'm supremely anxious that Warren isn't the leading national progressive rn
