2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: MSNBC: Two more Sanders staffers suspended... [View all]Motown_Johnny
(22,308 posts)9. This is turning into a good way to see how each candidate deals with a problem.
It isn't as if problems won't appear. They will and seeing how they are dealt with is important.
Hillary spent 5 months insisting that she would not turn over her server, until she did.
Bernie has fired one staffer, suspended 2 more, forced the DNC to back down on their withholding of voter information and is moving toward exposing exactly what happened. All within a few days.
Yes, this should not have happened. Guess what, stuff happens. Bernie deals with it. Hillary avoids it.
The contrast is even clearer than it had been before this happened.

I very much believe Sanders did not know about these staffers' actions beforehand...
