Yes, they will crucify any other candidate, but this will be called "establishment smear campaign". They aren't here yet, so I suppose they are waiting to get their official messaging (scripts) from the campaign.

bloom 286 Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Ok I've just heard word directly from the Sanders campaign that the $500000 donation came from Hillary Clinton herself in an attempt to frame Bernie. She was aided by none other than Debbie Wasserman Schultz, but you didn't hear that from me, I don't want to be accused of being antisemitic!!!!

I would vote for Bernie in the general election too if it comes down to it. But the idea that Bernie is somehow the paragon of honest politics is just stupid. Yet it is that idea that his bases uses the most, especially when they intentionally smear other candidates.

Especially when they intentionally smear other candidates. from my perspective, if this is true, i'm honestly not surprised and quite frankly i don't even care, it doesn't bother me. i'm putting up a stink about it because of that loud mouth chunk of bernie sanders' supporters that goes after everybody else, and then when there's a fire in their own kitchen--a deafening silence. it's so embarrassingly hypocritical, like, i thought you were standing up for a completely honest and squeaky clean way of doing things when you canceled warren, or does that only apply to people who aren't bernie?

audrey horne 1,180 Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 FYI : Editor of LGBTQ-Nation Bil Browning, is an activist and a gay conservative (key word). He recently showed support for Buttigieg. AOC's "dark money is the enemy of democracy", well, joke's on her. That's a shame to learn about such moves but nothing is really surprising here. Since all politicians are corrupted, at least try to base your opinions and your vote on ideas, programs and actual activism. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The allegation is that an organization supporting Bernie isn't disclosing their donors, and it is true. The organization does deserve criticism, but it's not Bernie's campaign. This is a separate organization that, while founded by Bernie in 2016 and currently supporting Bernie, is not associated with the campaign and legally cannot have ties to the campaign. The insinuation being made is that Bernie is secretly running the organization, which currently has no evidence. People are merely speculating that he must be secretly risking his entire campaign for $500,000. And speculation is a weak foundation for outrage. It's a great foundation for propaganda though, and I am so over propaganda. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reporting some news (LGBTQ-Nation report a lot on Buttigieg, it is not a coincidence) is a very biased way to choose what the news are made of. https://publicintegrity.org/politics/pete-buttigieg-mayor-indiana-money-lobbyists/ ALL of them have interests conflicts. I'm not a US citizen, so I don't really endorse anybody. I like Sanders ideas because they seem to me to be the most progressive and anti-capitalist. I'm also well aware of him skipping LGBTQ forums and now dealing with dark money for exemple. In fact, it's absurd to have to vote for anybody when you properly do your research and found out they are indeed all cheaters. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
