(15,124 posts)and unnecessarily belligerent and abrasive and one has to ask whether she is an example of the type of people who would staff a Sanders administration. She ALMOST makes Kellyanne sound professional by comparison.

Seems to be the rule rather than the exception among Bernie's entourage.

(2,728 posts)Nina Turner defining Bloomberg as an oligarch is appropriate quite alright by me. I appreciate her resolve while being challenged on air.

(10,434 posts)Maybe it's because of other things she's said or done. Because I think her assessment of Bloomberg in this video is exactly right. He's attempting to buy his way the presidency.
Why is this OK? Just because he's not MF45??? Really?
Bloomberg may well be a better choice than MF45, but that doesn't mean he's putting working people first. And that's who a Democratic presidential candidate should be prioritizing: Working people, poor people, people who need health care .
