Bernie Sanders arrived at a rally in San Francisco, Calif., on Wednesday.
By Michael A. Cohen May 20, 2016

I’ve had it with Bernie Sanders.

I’ve had with it his moral preening. I’ve had it with his simplistic, one-dimensional view of American politics. I’ve had it with his labeling anyone who supports his opponent as fundamentally corrupt and a handmaiden of the 1 percent. I’ve had it with his never-ending list of excuses for why he’s not doing better. I’ve had it with the exaggerations he tells his supporters about his chances of winning. I’ve had it with his refusal to demonstrate any leadership as these same supporters crudely attack Sanders’ political opponents.

One year ago, when Sanders announced his candidacy, he said that his pursuit of the Democratic nomination would not be about Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders but rather “about the needs of the American people, and the ideas and proposals that effectively address those needs.”

Those days have come and gone.

Instead, the Sanders campaign has devolved into an angry, pointless, and ego-driven campaign, more interested in promoting Sanders for president than the issues for which he claims to care so deeply. .............

1. The lady does protest too much...

The more you guys say IT'S OVER the more certain I become that it must not be true. And why the hell do you care so much? In clinical terms your reaction seems overdetermined.

[bvf]

32. They have nothing in response to this

short of the wheezy, artificial "Sanders is hurting Clinton's chances." Pure stupidity.

If Clinton were half the candidate they mindlessly insist she is, there would be no need to trot this ridiculous crap out, time after time. As it is, Her Inevitability has been having a rough time of it, and nothing is going to change that.

Talk about putting party above its members, as though the prospect of getting soundly fucked by one's own candidate were a small price to pay for "winning."

It's definitely not over. Back to the primaries, and on to Philadelphia!

34. Who The Hell Is Michael A. Cohen?

He can go take a walk... We do not give a hoot about these klowns making summary declarations... The More They Hoot The More desperate their cause becomes... She want sthe race to be over before it's OVER... Because she's afraid that ... REALITY is going to bite her where the sun don't shine... and her lifelong dream will be but a memory...

[Trust Buster]

2. BANG !!! Succinctly put. This is all about Sanders himself now.

[BootinUp]

3. 100% on target, sorry to say. nt

[riversedge]

14. It does seem to be mostly ego-driven last month or so.

..One year ago, when Sanders announced his candidacy, he said that his pursuit of the Democratic nomination would not be about Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders but rather “about the needs of the American people, and the ideas and proposals that effectively address those needs.”

Those days have come and gone.

Instead, the Sanders campaign has devolved into an angry, pointless, and ego-driven campaign, more interested in promoting Sanders for president than the issues for which he claims to care so deeply.

5. Boom goes the dynamite! Daayum!

I’ve had with it his moral preening. I’ve had it with his simplistic, one-dimensional view of American politics. I’ve had it with his labeling anyone who supports his opponent as fundamentally corrupt and a handmaiden of the 1 percent. I’ve had it with his never-ending list of excuses for why he’s not doing better. I’ve had it with the exaggerations he tells his supporters about his chances of winning.

6. spot on analysis of Bernie and his campaign

[boston bean]

7. Like. puts all the truth out there. Exactly how i feel.

[hobbit709]

8. I hope no one sprains their arm with all the mutual self-congratulating backslapping here.

[hellofromreddit]

9. Cohen?

The guy who wrote this trash: "Maybe it’s the fact that he’s 74, would be the oldest man to ever become president, and yet couldn’t be bothered to release his medical records until a Clinton surrogate attacked him for it.

Why am I gonna take him seriously?

Oh, wait, this is more of you guys punching down, isn't it? "She's inevitable." "It was over months ago." "He's wasting his donors' money." But also: "He's destroying the party!"

Well, have at it. Nobody believes you, and quoting a hack won't change that.

[AgingAmerican]

10. Another Hillary supporter publicly agonizing

[sheshe2]

11. Michael Cohen

Boston Globe.

[Little Star]

12. Cohen wrote exactly what I think.....

Sanders never was a democrat he only joined the party to try and destroy it.

Sanders is a narcissist.

[mhatrw]

13. About as meaningful as Lebron James saying he's had it with Stephen Curry. nt

[Fawke Em]

15. Who the hell is Michael Cohen and why should I care?

[SMC22307]

16. If Michael can't handle the heat of a primary campaign...

perhaps he should find less stressful things to write about. Poor dear.

[jillan]

18. Oh poor baby! Come to think of it I have had it with people like Michael Cohen. Maybe I should

write on Op-Ed about it.

[Fawke Em]

20. First you'd have to find an audience of people who even know who Micahel Cohen is. LOL.

Writing an op-ed about somebody 325 million Americans don't know exists wouldn't garner you much traffic.




(Who is Michael Cohen anyway?)

[jillan]

24. How can I possibly vote for Bernie now that someone who lives in Boston is tired of Bernie?

Especially someone I never heard of.

lol.

[yuiyoshida]

31. Who in gods name is Michael Cohen?

[Shandris]

19. "Impotent Rage: The Article" I love watching the Medes realize their power is an illusion...

...just like everything they put forward. "N-no, if we ALL scream 'its over' enough, h-he HAS to listen, r-right guys?" LOL.

[reformist2]

35. They don't even realize they're neither famous nor admired. I've never heard of half of these people

[frylock]

21. *yawn*

California here we come.

[aikoaiko]

22. Michael A. Cohen is a jerk who dismissed Bernie back in January.

I'm sure it Berns him up to see Bernie campaigning and still winning primaries.

Go Bernie Go. You're pissing all the right fuckers.

[SidDithers]

23. DU rec...

Thanks for posting.

[cherokeeprogressive]

25. Trying to figure out why I should give a fuck.

[mikeysnot]

26. Fuck this asshole.

Who gives a flying fuck what cohen thinks or believes.

[lunamagica]

27. Spot on

[gordianot]

28. Grrrrrr mad chairs being thrown crash

[barrow-wight]

29. This pretty much sums it up.

But Bernie won't be happy until he scorches the Democratic Party, the same party he trashed all these years so nobody should be surprised that he's doing it now.
