1. Pretty dismissive of putin/trump's favorite and most desired opponent.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

2. LOL, since Joe brought it up, the two should compare baggage. No doubt Bernie would come out on top!

Bernie/Elizabeth or Elizabeth/Bernie 2020!!
Either way, they're stronger together & can't be bought!!
Jump on the Bernie Bandwagon & join the revolution!!

[CentralMass]

4. That would be fun.

[Drunken Irishman]

8. Agreed. Let's see which candidate has passed the most substantial legislation!

I bet it's not even close.

Bernie is a good talker but not actually good at doing anything.

[George II]

10. Um, there's only one who has passed ANY substantial legislation.

[Drunken Irishman]

12. Agreed.

And it's why I support him.

[George II]

9. Joe brought it up? Didn't you see what BS said about Biden yesterday? In case you didn't:

Sanders slams Biden: He brings 'a lot of baggage' into the race

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) slammed his Democratic primary opponent former Vice President Joe Biden for the “baggage” he’d bring to a general election facing President Trump.

“It’s just a lot of baggage that Joe takes into a campaign, which isn’t going to create energy and excitement,” Sanders told The Washington Post in an interview published Thursday.

“He brings into this campaign a record which is so weak that it just cannot create the kind of excitement and energy that is going to be needed to defeat Donald Trump,” Sanders continued.

Comparing the two sets of "baggage", Biden has an overnight bag, Sanders has a steamer trunk.

And if Biden's record is "weak", how can we characterize Sanders' record? There simply is NO comparison of the two.

11. Sanders brought it up, actually

You forgot about that?

[TomCADem]

14. Yup, When It Comes To Paying Family Members With Campaign Money...

...and tax-exempt funds, Bernie wins and no one is close. Is there a single member of Bernie's immediate family who Bernie was not on his campaign/foundation payroll.

For once we agree!

[George II]

22. Crickets. I guess you're not interested in correcting your mistaken comment?

[ritapria]

3. Bernie : Putin and Trump's most desired opponent

Is that a fair comment ?... Have you any evidence to validate this statement?....Bernie isn't a perfect human being , none of us are …. But ….really

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

5. Since when do facts matter when it comes to bashing Bernie?!

Bernie/Elizabeth or Elizabeth/Bernie 2020!!
Either way, they're stronger together & can't be bought!!
Jump on the Bernie Bandwagon & join the revolution!!

16. We Could Just Use The Words of Bernie's Own Campaign Staff Shilling for Russia...

Briahna Joy Gray is Bernie's current and former campaign secretary:

https://heavy.com/news/2019/03/briahna-joy-gray-bernie-sanders-press-secretary/

Briahna Joy Gray is Bernie Sanders’ national press secretary for his 2020 campaign. She was one of 15 new hires announced in mid-March that included 10 women joining Sanders’ presidential campaign team. Sanders’ press secretary in 2016 was Symone Sanders (no relation to Bernie Sanders.) Gray is known for being outspoken about her beliefs, including her decision to vote for Jill Stein in 2016 after Sanders didn’t get the Democratic nomination.

Yet, she was also outspoken in siding with Trump's attacks that Russian interference is a hoax:

23. You really don't expect a response, do you? Never happens - just dump a flaming bag of crap and run

[TomCADem]

26. It is Funny When Bernie Supporters Ask for Fasts, Then You Give Them...

Facts, videos, voting records, etc., then there is silence.

It makes me wonder whether it just a gigantic propaganda operation or are their folks who can see Bernie's communication director pushing Trump talking points, and it just does not bother them sort of like an Evangelical Christian being totally down with Trump.

15. Russia's Media Mentions of 2020 Democratic Candidates

Bernie was overtaken by Tulsi, given how openly anti-Democrat she has gone, but Bernie still is the only other candidate who is not addressed negatively. Perhaps this has to do with his votes against the Magnitsky Act or sanctions against Russia for election meddling?

[George II]

24. That is not a shock.

[Gothmog]

21. If sanders is the nominee, trump will win 45+ states

13. I love these comments

[myohmy2]

17. "You guys expect me to take Bernie's comments seriously..."

...I do...does Bernie's comments make you nervous enough to want to whistle past the graveyard?

" “I don’t respond to Bernie,” Joe Biden says when asked about @BernieSanders hitting the ex-VP on Iraq today. You’re not going to get me into a fight with Bernie. Bernie’s got enough baggage,” Biden says, in a dig about Sanders’ comments to WaPo yesterday. "


" “I don’t respond to Bernie,” "

" You’re not going to get me into a fight with Bernie. "

...Joe, you are in a fight with Bernie for the nomination...

...what are you afraid of?...

[Gothmog]

20. I have never taken sanders seriously

sanders is not likely to be the nominee of the party. There are far too many real democrats out there who have good memories. These real democrats will not forgive or forget

I will support the nominee of the party. I just doubt that sanders will be the nominee

[LongtimeAZDem]

25. Uh, no, Bernie is in a fight with Biden, not the other way around. And he's currently losing

[NYMinute]

18. Bernie should be ignored - he won't win the nomination

despite all the tricks and attacks on Democrats.

[Gothmog]

19. I love this response by Joe to sanders'
