This is why Warren did not endorse him. Her conscience would not allow her to put her name on that behavior.

But I was willing to say it was just some unhinged people online. The campaigns actions have been just as bad lately. It’s super disappointing.

He was fired but only after MSM exposed him. His ugly troll account was connected to his real instagram and some of Bernie's top campaign staff followed the account.

Using the account @perma_ben, Ben Mora, a regional field director for Sanders’ campaign based in Michigan, has attacked other Democrats in the field—as well as their family members, surrogates, journalists, and politically active celebrities—in deeply personal terms, mocking their physical appearance, gender, and sexuality, among other things.

To me when it comes to the election.
Too many trolls, paid actors and disruptive elements to be taken seriously.
Same with a lot of other media.
Some of it is seeping into DU as well.
Sad to see.
