Before they dropped out, Kamala Harris and Julian Castro were big Joy Reid faves. Now with only people of pallor left to choose from, Reid seems to like Elizabeth Warren. One person who is definitely not high on Reid's list is Bernie Sanders. During MSNBC's coverage of the Nevada caucuses this morning, Saturday, Reid ripped Sanders on two fronts.

First, she claimed that by tweeting that he wouldn't let the Democratic establishment stop him, Sanders was "kicking to the curb" 65 million Hillary voters, among others.

Second, she compared Sanders to the ultimate liberal villain, President Trump. Reid claimed there was a "Trumpy" side to Sanders's criticism of the Washington Post.

Joy Reid really hates Bernie Sanders.

It can’t be because Sanders is a socialist: Reid is far left. So what is it?

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

[GuavaCheesePuff]

Because Bernie doesn’t do identity politics.

[governsleastgovernsbest]

Interesting point.

[Secret Agent Man]

Because Bernie is an open communist, Joy knows she can’t be as its a huge turnoff and the hypocrisy she has working for a high salary and a capitalist media company.

[governsleastgovernsbest]

Another interesting point!

"Reid claimed there was a "Trumpy" side to Sanders's criticism of the Washington Post."

BWAHAHAHA! This person is a paid journalist? What is she, 8 years old? Bet she had an entire meltdown like so many when Hillary lost. Anyone got a photo of her on that night? The joy of watching "Joy" go ballistic would be priceless.

Remember that Jesse Jackson called New York City “Hymietown“. So there’s that.

Because Bernie, much like Trump, is not controlled by the establishment.

Trump and Sanders have totally different views on what America is about, but Bernie seems to be his own man too and does not seem to understand that all he has gained personally from politics was supposed to make him their puppet. Bernie does not seem to understand he is a bought man.

Trump just does what is right for the American people and cannot be bought.

“Joy Reid really hates Bernie Sanders.”

She’s just following DNC orders. The goal is to keep Bernie’s delegate count as low as possible.

[BenLurkin]

She is calling Sanders a “FJB”

People of pallor! I love it. Dang it, I wish I would've come up with that one.

Oh, well, I can always steal it.

Let's see. The National Association for the Advancement of Pallored People. NAAPP? Yup, sounds about right.

[bigbob]

She’s always bitchin’ about something or someone

[governsleastgovernsbest]

“People of pallor” has been around for a while. I [finkelstein=governs] also wish I could claim it!

[Texas Eagle]

In short, Joyless doesn't really care about the timing of the story and she doesn't really care to contemplate it for herself.

It is what it is. C'est la vie. Que sera, sera. Life goes on. Nothing to see here, move along. We all know the fix is in, we just gotta go through the motions.

She obviously had no problem when Hillary and the DNC kicked Bernie and his supporters to the curb.

[cgbg]

Group mugging is her favorite team sport!

[Bon mots]

Go Bernie!

[Toespi]

TDS. She knows Sanders can not beat Trump.

Being only 1023/1024 Caucasian, Warren knows first-hand the struggles of people of color. Just ask her.
