Now they're doctoring videos and posting them on twitter........

1. This is why Sanders is not qualified to be president. Having surrogates push this bullshit

tells you everything about Sander's character

[TwilightZone]

2. He's the guy the Sanders camp fired after one day, as I recall.

The claim was that they weren't done vetting him yet or something.

Apparently, he didn't learn anything from getting fired.

[George II]

3. Yes. He's the one that dubbed an obscene "speech" over a video of MLK's "I have a dream" speech.

[TwilightZone]

6. Ah, yes.

[Demsrule86]

57. Jane Sanders has 'liked' his videos.

[jrthin]

4. They are living in a glass house, they shouldn't be throwing stones.

[showblue22]

5. This is how Bernie likes to run his campaign.

I heard Matt Orfalea was rehired by Bernie. Jane Sanders has been retweeting and praising him even after the fire. How you run your campaign is a window into what kind of person you are. Your campaign exposes your character, your decency, and your integrity. Is this who we want to govern our nation?

[ehrnst]

11. Jane also invited Arturo Carmona to "The Gathering"

after Sanders had been informed after November 2016 of the predatory behavior that got Carmona "re-assigned" during his campaign.

Fealty seems to matter above all to the campaign...

[showblue22]

13. Good god!

This is who they would have in cabinet positions running our nation.

[ehrnst]

7. Wherever did they learn that?

[Skid Rogue]

8. Jesus Christ almighty!

Whoever made that video can not claim to be a Democrat. Thank god it was so sloppy and obvious. Once again, Putin is slipping.

[Skid Rogue]

9. Sanders supporters, what do you think about this? Please, please chime in.

[Blue_true]

37. They won't. The activity reflects badly on Bernie's own decisionmaking, they

can't stand to see their leader called out for allowing grotesque shit to happen.

[BidenBacker]

10. This Orfalea Oaf

lasted ONE day after Bernie hired him...

https://www.dailydot.com/layer8/bernie-sanders-matt-orfalea-mlk-youtube-video/

An adolescent with some video editing software. Couldn't get a job with JibJab, I guess.

[George II]

12. But about a month ago or so he was REHIRED at the urging of Jane Sanders. She loves him.

[BidenBacker]

16. No shit?

They rehired him after that crap he pulled with MLK??? And they wonder why the black vote is running away from this campaign like the plague.

You know, I just watched Titanic for like the umpteenth time a few nights ago. The passengers didn't really start screaming and panicking until the water got up to the upper deck.

Kinda like his campaign right about now. Bernie hit a big Biden berg and the RMS Sanders is going down fast.

[ehrnst]

17. Jane also was fond enough of Weaver enough to put him in charge of Our Revolution after Bernie

promised the founding staff that Weaver would not be participating...

https://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/292309-sanders-group-loses-five-staffers-pre-launch

And Jane adored Arturo Carmona, accused of sexual harassment and "reassigned" on the campaign, enough to invite him to "The Gathering" after staff had made his predatory behavior public when he ran for office in 2017....

https://medium.com/mashamendieta/be-your-own-hero-because-bernie-is-not-it-c4add2e08029

[George II]

18. "You and your team put together an amazing event!" but they forgot to invite a single Vermont....

....African American! The local NAACP chapters had a lot to say about that.

[ehrnst]

21. Some real myopia there. (nt)

[NCProgressive]

46. I don't think it is myopia

Myopia requires the subject to not see something and react without seeing.

These people saw everything and decided to take untoward actions anyway.

[vercetti2021]

14. Again

How are his bros any different from MAGAts?

[George II]

15. It's the ol' political ideology horseshoe.

[mcar]

19. Deplorable

[Skid Rogue]

20. Come on Sanders' supporters, say something. Please. nt

[BidenBacker]

25. You're gonna have to wait until tomorrow to get your requested response

Since the average age of a Bernie Bros is like 14 it's way past their bedtime.

The older ones are much too busy with their video editing software at the moment.

[Skid Rogue]

30. Come on, step up, boys and girls!!!! I don't care how old you are, do the right thing!!!!

[BidenBacker]

33. Hey, Skid

Don't hold your breath too long, amigo.

We don't want you passing out and slamming your head on your keyboard.

[Skid Rogue]

39. Thanks, Buddy. I won't hold my breath. Promise.

The hypocrisy drives me insane, but I'm going to be super strong.

Go Joe Biden!!!!!!

[BidenBacker]

42. I know what you mean

I absolutely loathe liars but I positively despise hypocrites even more.

With Trump we got a twofer. Not exactly a good look for Sanders supporters to be a mirror image of the reich wing.

[hlthe2b]

22. I only saw one comment questioning the editing. Are they all bamboozled or unwilling to admit?

This kind of thing is incredibly depressing to me.

[Skid Rogue]

24. It's any means necessary. Depressing and dangerous. nt

[Sloumeau]

23. Here's the unedited video of Biden in KC

Biden starts talking just around the 31-minute mark.

[link:https://fox4kc.com/news/live-watch-presidential-candidate-joe-biden-speak-at-the-wwi-liberty-memorial/|]

Apparently, some Sanders supporters are so clueless, that they are unable to recognize the difference between someone with dementia and someone who is trying to remember his speech without cue cards.

The Biden campaign just needs to spring for a teleprompter.

[nolabear]

43. Incredible. I watched the whole thing. He was wonderful.

I actually believed the “OBiden-Bama” claim and thought it was just a funny stumble. But he didn’t say it. It has been a demeaning trend all damn day and it didn’t happen.

They have lost their damn minds.

[BidenBacker]

50. Wouldn't have surprised me if Biden really had said it

Joe never was the most gifted orator around even when he was much younger.

But I ain't voting for Biden because of his speaking...I'm voting for him because of his thinking.

Despite his aging, I believe that Biden still has a good mind. Contrast this to the present POTUS...who doesn't have one. Or Joe's current competitor...who appears to be on the verge of losing his.

The more Bernie Bros pull this shit the easier the choice becomes.

[doc03]

26. We will see these used against Biden by Trump too. What garbage! nt

[BidenBacker]

27. True

But the nice thing about running against Trump is that no editing is required.

That will save Bloomberg megabucks in man-hours required to get an ad out.

[doc03]

28. I hope Bloomberg's money doesn't have the effect of drying up

contributions for Biden's campaign.

[BidenBacker]

31. I suppose it could

But then again 20 bucks outta my or your pocket is no different than $20 outta Mikey's.

If anything, it might free us up to donate to local Democrats running in state elections which is just as important. Instead of me having to send Biden some dough I can now give some more to Mark Kelly.

[doc03]

38. I don't think Bloomberg or anyone can give Biden more than $2700. But he can spend

whatever he wants in separate ads on issues. Is that correct?

[BidenBacker]

40. I believe it's $2800 but yes

There are tons of things Bloomberg can do legally through a super PAC as long as he doesn't coordinate with Joe's campaign. Any assistance he provides like ads and whatnot frees Biden's coffers up to do other stuff.

Not too worried about Joe's finances these days. He basically hit the lottery with the ticket that Congressman Clyburn bought him.

[relayerbob]

41. $2800 as an individual, for each of the primary and general elections

People can however, "bundle" donations from multiple people, and of course run SuperPacs to one's billionaire hearts content

[doc03]

47. Last 2016 election coal mining asshole Bob Murray gave Trump millions

supposedly from individual donations by his employees. He also has had fund raising dinners for Trump
several times since Trump has been in office.

[relayerbob]

49. Oh, there are absolutely a million ways around of any this

Most not as blatantly illegal and sleazy as your example

We really really fully federally funded campaigns for all Federal positions (ie, Congress, Senate, WH). Private financing is absrud

[Cha]

29. matt orfalea is the one that was fired

for being a racist asshole.. so he's back?

[George II]

32. Jane urged the campaign to rehire him, and has "liked" many of his videos on twitter.

[Cha]

36. They're so desperate.. if they put that energy into..

positive action.. just imagine.

[NurseJackie]

34. Not surprising. Ain't that some fucked up shit?

Disgusting!

[Blue_true]

35. It is clear from watching the videos that they have been cut and

selectively appended. Sanders needs to put an end to this type of total dishonesty.

[Squinch]

53. Don't hold your breath,

[Skid Rogue]

44. Sanders' supporters, you don't need to apologize...

just say it was wrong to doctor a video... an immoral move.

Remember Joe Biden...

"I don't care who you're supporting, attacks like this against a man who could be the first Jewish President are disgusting and beyond the pale. Hatred and bigotry have no place in America — and it's up to all of us to root out these evils wherever they're found."

You're Democrats, do the right thing.

[NCProgressive]

45. Two of Vermont's former Democratic governors said

that "Bernie plays dirty" ... here is the proof.

QED

[Cha]

52. Yeah, they did..

[NYMinute]

48. It is stupid

The news media who were present for the event can easily refute it. It will only make their "leader" look bad.

[Control-Z]

51. I'm sick to death of Sanders' people.

And disgusted with Sanders. The idea that he has had nothing to do with his supporters' dirty tricks is pure BS, imo.

[IluvPitties]

54. This is proif that many Bernie Bros are not true Dems.

[RandiFan1290]

55. Then don't worry about them so much

If Biden already has this won, I don't see what all the fuss is about.

[yardwork]

56. There were doctored videos of Hillary Clinton in 2016, too.

[c-rational]

58. Reprehensible behavior, and telling of the candid date and those he surrounds himself with.

Simply shameful.
