Bullshit. Somone who works for Sanders campaign confronts Biden on his policy, and now he's a paid vsrazdem Jan 2020 #12

How many other paid staffers/workers from other campaigns get up in the face of an opponent? George II Jan 2020 #15

He is a disruptor. Scurrilous Jan 2020 #24

If that is all he is doing for his paycheck then yes, he would be considered a paid GemDigger Jan 2020 #25

He is an organizer with Movimiento Cosecha, which he has every right to be representing. vsrazdem Jan 2020 #49

SURELY he could be doing something more productive with his time. I was a big Bernie fan... UniteFightBack Jan 2020 #79

Doing something more productive, that is so pathetic. vsrazdem Jan 2020 #89
