Bernie Sanders went ballistic at NBC and MSNBC execs ahead of the Democratic debate this week — jabbing one top TV exec repeatedly in the face with his finger and accusing the networks of offensive negative coverage.
Surging Sanders stormed through the walk-through for the Las Vegas debate, singling out one top producer at the end and aggressively sticking his finger in his face. One shocked witness said, “Bernie marched right up to NBC and MSNBC’s head of creative production and began jabbing his finger right in his face, yelling, ‘Your coverage of my campaign is not fair . . . Your questions tonight are not going to be fair to me.’ ”
Sanders did not hold back as he continued to rant about MSNBC coverage. According to the witness, “The NBC exec told Sanders he would be treated fairly.”
A separate insider confirmed the confrontation, saying Sanders was so steamed he also sparred with MSNBC boss Phil Griffin outside the green room moments before the debate began. “Sen. Sanders stated, ‘Phil, your network has not been playing a fair role in this campaign. I am upset. Is anything going to change? . . . I hope you will do better.’ ”
The Democratic front-runner has been left seeing red over repeated slights against him by liberal MSNBC pundits and hosts, including Chris Matthews, who suggested the senator might cheer socialist executions in Central Park. And Chuck Todd — a moderator of Wednesday’s debate — even quoted a story that described Sanders supporters as a “digital brownshirt brigade.” Todd was also tackled by seething Sanders onstage after the debate: “I do not appreciate your comment about my supporters,” adding the Holocaust reference was “offensive.”

Relevant thread and story: Chris Matthews warns of ‘executions in Central Park’ if socialism wins
Bernie Bros and the Internet of Beefs. What if Bernie Sanders' internet mobs are an asset, and not a liability? (about Sanders' "digital brownshirt brigade")
Trump will get under his skin so easily and expose him as the rage filled psychopath everyone who knows him a long time says he is.
I cant imagine he will get the nod if he doesn’t get 51 percent.
And he calls Putin a thug.
Lefties don’t like getting 1/10th of the Trump treatment.
No they don’t.
They’re like children. Spoiled ones who throw tantrums.
Like Kim in NK
That’s why they can’t be allowed to have a lot of power again.
Old people can be real nasty.
In Japanese they are called, “O-ba-tar-e-en”. Bitter old broad. .....and not one of those horse faced lesbians. ...
By the way, where do you get a horse faced lesbian? Is there a horse faced lesbian ranch somewhere? A store? At auction?
If burnie thinks they are bad to him he needs to take a look at how they treat Trump.
The media will do everything they can to take sanders out of the race.
Hopefully the f’n commie will blow a gasket and stroke out.
Sounds like Bernie is prime for another chest-grabber.
I doubt he makes it through the Primaries without another incident
You order one on Amazon and then it’s delivered by a dog-faced pony soldier.
Any Womens March

I should have figured it was you :)
Chest grabber. That’s funny lol

You are a pistol. ...I. Say a pistol. ..lol
This is the best election ever. ...
Who you calling nasty? :) (Old geezer here)
An honest one will deliver.
Not sure about the lying version.
Those dog faced pony soldiers can be tricky.
And Warren couldn’t take 1/1024th of it.
Lol!
If Comrade Sanders winds up on the debate stage with PDJT, the latter will play him like a cheap kazoo.
Trump’s biggest worry then will be Sanders stroking out in a fit of Stalinist rage.
Oh, and if someone sticks his finger in this old geezer’s face, he will suffer broken joints from an upward launched hand carrying an angry grip.
