I like how this piece hints at skeletons in Bernie’s closet, which in normal situations are something sinister that the person has done, which they’re trying to keep secret.

So, the headline is a lie because none of what was listed is sinister or something that Bernie would want to hide.

I’m not a socialist, but Bernie calling himself one shows me he has conviction. All of these other candidates are socialists in one way or another: they all favor state ownership of some industry or business. Some of the biggest socialists are Republicans who are gleeful to have a socialized financial sector.

Bernie badmouths democrats to this day who cow to moneyed interests. It’s one of his positive attributes, not a skeleton…

And your 3rd point is laughable. Bernie has alienated Democrat voters? Not the DNC? Not the corrupt to the hilt Clinton campaign? Not the 2017 admission from the DNC that they can rig primaries? You don’t get to re-paint history so soon after it happens. Everyone knows Bernie campaigned like crazy for Clinton. Everyone knows Bernie got screwed by the DNC in 2016 and everyone is very very wary about the DNC’s future plans. If they can legally rig a primary and we all know they don’t like Bernie, you have to wonder why anyone would have much trust in this process, especially if Bernie does not get the nomination.
