Bernie Sanders ‘Shunned’ His Socialist Friends
daily caller ^ | 07/17/2015

Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders “shunned” some of his closest personal friends as he moved away from Vermont socialist circles and into big-time Democratic Party politics, and the resentment still lingers today.

Sanders’ political star is rising as he positions himself as a left-wing alternative to Hillary Clinton. His rallies are drawing major crowds and helping drive the Democratic Party’s voter registration and mobilization efforts among liberals disenchanted by Wall Street-friendly Clinton. But as the media praises Sanders’ “socialist” credentials, socialists in the senator’s home state said there’s no love lost between them.

I have an aqua instance who used to wait table in Vermont in college days—and who said that Bernie is mean, rude and never leaves a tip.

Bern was a charade from the start

A member of The Establish masquerading as an outsider

Folded yesterday like a cheap suit

He is an aging, socialist, hippie scum.

I have not one iota of doubt he is an a-hole to people, especially the “little people”.

Most of the Dem rising stars are septugenarians or older.

BERNIE IS NOTHING MORE THAN A 'PLACE HOLDER' TO PROTECT HILLARY FROM REAL DEM CHALLENGERS.

I don’t think Bernie ever believed in himself but continued on the charade as long as the money came in. He pulled too many punches and actually protected Hillary when she did not deserve it. I thought he was protecting her from Republican attacks and chose deliberately not to pile on when ample opportunity presented itself. Her grotesque email scandal and the selfish cowardice she displayed at Benghazi were not only true, and ripe, but her sickening lies demanded the opprobrium of the nation. Bernie said no, and now he easily and quickly shed his revolutionary role and went back to being a battery on the 9th level in the Matrix. It happened quickly, because he was not truly a believer in himself nor his message. (If he were, he could never support her. She is a Machiavellian whore, who has sold this country out to the banks, to the Russians, to the Saudis, to drug dealers seeking pardons, and will sell this country out to enrich herself to any skell with a bag of cash. She will perjure herself and then in true demonic fashion, project all of her own sins on to her opponents, with the loving and surreptitious silence of the media. When she said Trump is a liar who is only out for himself, I sat dumbfounded and slack jawed, overtaken by the tidal wave of hypocrisy. The bigger the lie....)

I know the date of the article and in fact inserted the date when posting. I did a search for the title, didn’t find it and thought it relevant to post given he’s selling out again this week but on a national scale.

i remember reading that back in the 70s he lived on a commune some where, and was thrown out because he was lazy and wouldn’t work. He just wanted to sit around lecturing people on political theory. Typical commie.

Bernie is a socialist who then started running as a democrat. Of course his socialist buds don’t like that. Bernie says why run as a fringe socialist when he can get the democrat party itself to incorporate most of what he wants.
