Didn't Bernie Sanders say he would stop the personal attacks during Rachel interview

...guess that wasn't true

Get real, Bernie. The only person who's going to cut Social Security if he's elected is Donald Trump. Maybe you should spend your time attacking him.

Bernie Sanders@BernieSanders
Here's the deal: Joe Biden has repeatedly advocated for cuts to Social Security. I've fought my whole career to protect and expand it.

like this that makes Joe look good right now to me, Biden is right. Bernie is attacking the wrong person when he needs to do his homework. He is worse than Trump by putting his foot in his mouth. I can see right now, if Joe win,;He will not go quietly. He will sit out as long as possible and his followers will vote Trump because of him.

...Gray has been all over twitter today with the attacks. I can't say anything about Turner or Sirota, they've been doing wholesale blocks of people who aren't 110% with them.
