Biden's Team Is Blaming Bernie For His #MeToo Fiasco

[Pressure]

Actually he is. He's not taking corporate money like the rest. Biden use to be, but he's a corporate hack now who agrees with Republicans.

He's one of the poorest. Bernie is nowhere near rolling in dough.

Bernie Sanders is the 19th poorest member of the United States Senate



By Philip Bump
April 14, 2016
Thursday night's debate, Bernie Sanders acquiesced -- but warned that they weren't going to be terribly interesting.

"You'll get them, yes," he said in response to the question. "Yeah, look, I don't want to get anybody very excited. They are very boring tax returns. No big money from speeches, no major investments. Unfortunately -- unfortunately, I remain one of the poorer members of the United States Senate. And that's what that will show."

We already knew that. Each year, members of Congress have to report their economic interests, data that's made public and compiled by the Center for Responsive Politics. That data doesn't provide a hard number; it provides a range. (That's because the report itself asks for a range of values.)

At the top end of the spectrum are three Democrats, Mark Warner, Dianne Feinstein and Richard Blumenthal. (The most recent data is for the year 2014.) The 25th-richest member is Jeff Sessions of Alabama, whose average net worth was $7.5 million.

not a millionaire. On economic issues, he walks the walk. The only weird thing about his statement about his relative poverty during the debate -- Sanders is still worth more than ten times the actual poverty level -- is that he he dubbed his lower net worth as "unfortunate."

Since then Bernie Sanders had made over a million dollars a year from Book sales.

Btw, i noticed how you've moved from being the poorest to now being poorer.

I'm not saying I agree with you, but it would make more sense if Flores was a plant from Beto's camp since Biden, Beto, and Harris supporters will split the votes in the primaries.

No it’s fact. Flores supports Beto. She was at one of his rallies last week

I'm shocked by the hypocrisy of people defending Biden. You can say, "I don't think what he did was bad enough to have to drop out," but the level of DEFENDING him right after all the #metoo full court press on other men. To me this has been a show stopper since I was seeing these pics years ago. Dude is old and has tried and failed to be President numerous times. He needs to ride off into the sunset.

You're comparing groping coochies, breasts,mouth kissing, and having sex using your stature to shoulder touching and top of the head kissing .


Is this really what you're doing or do you seriously not see the difference between the two?

Fact is, bernie didnt tell anyone to smear biden. This has been a thing for a while now.

And more women have spoken out about his nonsense now. This is Biden's fault, and Biden's only

 

[Professor Emeritus]

Establishment neolibs are always trying to blame all their own failures on Bernie.

I swear before 2020 one of their cronies in Hollywood is going to produce a Marvel-copycat blockbuster with a folksy elderly Vermont politician as the evil mastermind seeking to destroy the world.

as bernie becomes more and more of a threat to the establishment, we're gonna see more and more smearing, even coming from the left. this might be the stupidest fukkin thing ive ever heard

You would think, but....

Bernie scared.

He can only promise legal weed, pander in black churches, and promise free healthcare for so long



He thought this was gonna work, but ppl not stupid n see it’s bullshyt.

I hope you're

Bc we know he'll get exposed in the general.

Pathetic

Based on what? He nearly beat Clinton even though she had the whole establishment behind her and he didn't start campaigning seriously until after the primaries started, and then he polled far better than anyone else in the general.

i'm not pro-biden. and i'm definitely not pro-bernie. warren is my girl, great platform with the gumption and know-how to actually turn her ideas into legislation

Sounds like you want her to keep working in the Senate then. Turning ideas into legislation is a senator's job, not a president's job.

But it's stupid to pit Warren and Bernie against each other when there are far more important battles out there. Warren needs to be fighting for name recognition and proving that she can campaign nationally at all. I'd be happier with her as the nominee than almost anyone else (I'd rather not support Bernie as old as he is), but she doesn't look like she has a great shot yet and siphoning a couple people off Bernie ain't gonna get her there.

He can do whatever he wants, but we don't have to pretend he isnt a multimillionaire who owns 3 homes to support his message.

Lying about the facts suggests you find flaws in them.

The "democrats" refuse to actually modernize their party and go with a progressive young face, and instead continue to forcefeed their dynastic corporate lackeys. Bernie's way too old and he doesn't think reparations would work, despite being a fukkin socialist who supposedly supports redistribution of wealth.

They basically hold the country hostage by saying "We're just gonna let the republicans win unless you decide to vote for the person the DNC can control the most " because they're all republicans anyway (see what Biden had to say about drug dealers back in the 1980s ).

This is why we need campaign finance reform, because the only people that can afford these billion dollar campaigns are shills to the private sector.

Bernie's still one of the few with an actual shot of winning that could be pushed toward reperation policy. We gotta play a position of strength game with what we got play with what we have. I'd much rather be fighting Bernie about the needs of specific black policy instead of some of these other Dems who are still arguing that the current situation just needs some tweaks.

There's always gonna be a fight for us atleast until theres more AOCs and Stacey Abrams types in leadership positions.

 

[Slystallion]

If it wasn't for Obama needing an old man to be his running mate. Biden would still be known as a long time loser who is knows for plagiarizing a speech.

no, it sounds like i want a president who knows how to get things done. not someone who is all talk (Bernie) or all threats (Trump). knowing how to push legislation through is a big hand up for a pres, they know how to make proposals and build the coalitions that can make their vision become reality.

and who is pitting people against each other? i have candidates i strongly don't prefer, one who i strongly prefer - warren, and others i'm open to learning more about.

 

[Dameon Farrow]

Biden will not be affected by this. This is one precedent Trump's campaign set that isn't going away. Trump never even apologized for his comments/behavior and that will be used as a measuring stick. Biden apologized and said he'd do better. shyt will be old news by next month. They'll try to bring it up around primary and it will hold zero weight in the public eye by then.

Welcome to the changing political landscape.

Also folks like Harris and Warren aren't getting picked. Sorry folks. Maybe in 2024.

Countless women see this bullshyt for what it is: A Bernie hit job.

He need to release dem taxes instead of pumpin these ugly ass broads to MeToo Joe Beezy

So much for the trump wouldnt dare talk about this because of his own allegations bullshyt.:canman:

Bernie denied any involvement full stop. Maybe some women are just inspired by him and want to help anyway they can.
