Tip of the hat to the Clinton campaign for going full on Red Scare.

by which they meant, redbaiting fanaticism. Predictably.
Never mind that Honduras is Clinton's responsibility.

I wonder if they really think it might stick or if they just want to deflect from how terrible Hillary was tonight.

He organized against it in Vermont and even went to Nicaragua to see the situation for himself .

https://www.yahoo.com/politics/clinton-hits-bernie-on-vote-for-border-034316435.html
A Sanders campaign spokesman told BuzzFeed that the amendment was essentially meaningless and symbolic, which was why Sanders decided he could vote for it.
How many of his other votes were equally as meaningless and symbolic?
