Bernie Sanders staffers from 2016 campaign want a meeting with the Vermont Senator to discuss 'sexual violence' and the 'predatory culture' they claim existed inside his camp

Staffers circulated a letter asking Senator Bernie Sanders to hold a meeting that includes senior aides Letter's aim was to discuss 'sexual violence and harassment' that allegedly took place during the 2016 campaign

While letter did not mention specific instances or accusations, it is meant to address 'culture of toxic masculinity'

Sanders' longshot campaign in 2016 fell short of defeating the eventual Democratic nominee - Hillary Clinton

More than two dozen male and female staffers from Bernie Sanders’ 2016 presidential campaign want to hold a meeting with the Vermont Senator and his senior aides to ‘discuss the issue of sexual violence and harassment’ that took place during the failed bid for the Democratic nomination.

‘In recent weeks there has been an ongoing conversation on social media, in texts, and in person, about the untenable and dangerous dynamic that developed during our campaign,’ the staffers wrote in a letter obtained by POLITICO.

The letter was not meant to become public, but staffers did confirm the existence of the letter on Sunday.

Friends of Bernie Sanders, the senator’s principal campaign committee, put out a statement in response to queries about the letter.

‘We thank the signers of the letter for their willingness to engage in this incredibly important discussion,’ the statement reads.

‘We always welcome hearing the experiences and views of our former staff.

‘We also value their right to come to us in a private way so their confidences and privacy are respected.

I’m sure many of you Freepers can see what’s going on here. These “staffers” are part of the plan to end Comrade Bernie’s 2020 presidential bid before it gets started. The Swamp RATS aren’t waiting for the primaries to rid themselves of Bernie again!

“unrecorded cc line” — how cute! It will probably be live streamed!

pond me too continues to march — maybe bernie will be the next victim crushed under its treads.

I gotta say I find it all rather amusing. Not only have women poisoned themselves in the workplace (men refuse to have ANY dealings with women in 1:1 situations and many small firms now won’t hire women), but the victims have tended to be A LOT more liberals than conservatives.

Popcorn time.

Probably a plexiglass partition so the sexes can’t get too close to each other. Brushing against one of those hags would constitute sexual harassment.

I think you’re on to something.

If the Swamp Rats reject Hitlery, I wonder what will they do to sabotage her. Probably keep her boozed up.

Libs never disappoint. We can always rely on them for shameless duplicity.

Death, taxes, and liberal hypocrisy.

Isn’t that “gal” the dude who ran for governor in Vermont? The dude lost by a big margin! Even in one of the bluest states in America that kind of freakshow is still unacceptable!

Christine Hallquist, née David, 2018 candidate for Vermont Governor. Thankfully he was defeated by a 15 point margin, no thanks to Bernie Sanders who actually endorsed this sick freak.
