One of the thing I have noticed is that Bernie Sanders tends to not take responsibility for the things he has said and done. He did say that one time after a top staffer and others were caught with their hands in the Clinton data files that he took responsibility for that, and then just hours afterwards unleashed Weaver on the media and sued the DNC.
