This guy was just hired (yesterday) by the Sanders campaign. Look at some of his tweets...

He rivals David Sirota with his venomous attacks.




Examples, regarding Barack and Michelle Obama:

I'm so sorry I voted for him in 2016. If I were able to I would get down on my knees and apologize to Hillary. This time around I'm using critical thinking and not making that mistake again.

The Sanders Campaign is running Bernie not the other way round.
The character of
people who closely surround the candidate and run the messaging is important in evaluating the candidate. It is a window into who will be brought into the West Wing.
Just sayin'.

to recruit for their "revolution". These tweets were probably found within minutes, yet the BS campaign is too inept to do just that for the people they hire? Or is kissing Bernard's ring and swearing loyalty the only requirement to get hired?

And it's getting worse. This is like Trump and his college seniors, probably all he can get at this point.

This is one area he had a chance to change up since 2016 and he didn't.


Meanwhile, even people who have disagreements with Biden are lined up to support him. Once again, once again, Hillary was ahead of the curve when she pointed out no one wants to work with Bernie.

Why doesn't Bernie fix this? Is he in a place where he can't, or maybe he just won't?

This clown is disgraceful, and Sanders needs to apologise immediately for the things Agnew has said.

Furthermore, does the fact that BS is hiring new “senior advisors”, particularly of this nature, strike anyone else as a bit of a preview of what’s yet to come? I have a bad feeling that he’s again staying in until the convention regardless of whether primary victory is possible.

I think you'd have to question the ultimate goal of someone who did that. Once can be justified as carelessness, twice would speak to something less benign.

All these senior advisors/surrogates went to the same finishing school to polish their ugly, obnoxious personalities. Just more evidence that these people are less interested in fighting Donald Trump than damaging the party they presumably want to lead.

No more patience for this behavior and/or attitude.
