Well, it's great that she's meeting with people in smaller numbers so she can listen to them. I have to wonder, though, how many minimum wage earners can afford $2700 just so they can be listened to?

What's funny to watch is the struggle to turn everything positive into a negative to the point where all you can do is ask 'are they serious'??

Meantime Bernie keeps going, gathering more and more support each time more people learn about him.

Even succeeding in USING their Dark Money funded smear campaigns to his advantage.

I'm still amazed at how Brock managed to raise over one million dollars for BERNIE. Talk about a complete failure even as a dirty trickster.
