He signed an agreement with the DNC, too, so he knew this was a nothingburger. nt

She can't write. I'm surprised she didn't mention the scent of the candle...

Ok. But this whole shebang could've been avoided if he had corrected her "findings"

Yes indeed! You're absolutely correct! It reflects poorly on BOTH of them...

She is a big girl and yes she owns this. I hate what she did but I do not hate her.

We see Bernie very differently. And that's ok. We got to agree to disagree.

Not harping, it was meant as humor. This really isn't about Bernie anyway-it's about Donna.
