CNN’s Debate Performance Was Villainous and Shameful
RollingStone ^ | Jan. 15, 2020 | Matt Taibbi

CNN debate moderator Abby Phillip asked Bernie Sanders in the Tuesday debate in Des Moines:

Not “did you say that,” but “why did you say that?”

Sanders denied it, then listed the many reasons the story makes no sense: He urged Warren herself to run in 2016, campaigned for a female candidate who won the popular vote by 3 million votes, and has been saying the opposite in public for decades. “There’s a video of me 30 years ago talking about how a woman could become president of the United States,” he said.

Good read and not just because it attacks CNN but because is shows the whole DemonShit establishment, with CNN in the lead, was out to destroy Sanders with fake news. Looks like the Berners aren't going to be very happy come Milwaukee. Indeed, it also looks like Pelousy deliberately delayed sending the impeachment articles to the Senate just to keep Bernie off the campaign trail in IA, NH, and NV, thereby helping Biden.

Berners, TAKE NOTICE: Once again, the DemonShit fix is in against Bernie.

Revealing on multiple levels: Dems know Bernie can’t win. Dems need to resort to dirty tricks.

Debate? What I saw was the lack of ability to make “reasoned and well thought out arguments”. It was more of IF I am elected a show and tell what I will do on my first day...with precious little show...as to how or who will pay for the Utopia described. Weak and sad,

Hopefully this is the nail in the coffin for giving CNN a debate in the general election.

Yep, and in the wretched Rolling Stone no less.

“I don’t click on Rolling Stone articles.”

For this one you should allow God to turn your hand to stone and have the altar veil rent by His Divine Lightning.

I wonder what percentage of the Bernie supporters have figured out the establishment is continually lying about Trump as well?

“Dems know Bernie can’t win. Dems need to resort to dirty tricks.”

Many so-called Republicans knew that Trump couldn’t win but were not as crooked and villainous as the dems so they allowed him to run.

I did read the article, and the author appears to be angry only that his own Ox (Sanders) was gored.

If this had been a Democrat/Republican encounter in which the Republican had been gored, this author would have thought it was great.

"I wonder what percentage of the Bernie supporters have figured out the establishment is continually lying about Trump as well?"

If they ever had a smidgen of support for a real charlatan and fraud like Bernie Sanders, I don't have much hope for them figuring that out...

But hey, we can hope, right???

Dems think Socialism (or really Communism) will tax the wealthy so everyone else can just live happy, abundant lives without working and it will rescue the planet from capitalist destruction.

Not showing qualification for acceptance in Mensa.

They are the type that could be on a Letterman Top Ten List for Calls Phoned In to the National Chapstick Hotline:

Okay. Got the cap pulled off. Now guide me step by step from here on out.

another was: Will Chapstick work on my kitty's lips?

Bernie’s Bourgeois Socialists (P42 Commie Manifesto) might go Jimmie Hodgekinson on his opponents.

Even Karl hated his type and would’ve spit on him and put one in the back of his head before kicking him into a shallow grave.

Don’t mess with the old SOCIALIST SCUMBAG. He and his acolytes have nothing to lose.
