Let us know when Sanders condemns this.

Oh, wait, his campaign has a close relationship with the hosts.

Oh, right, they were just "jokes". Where have I heard that before?

See, we can do whataboutism, too. The difference, of course, is that this shit is condoned by the campaign. Your nonsense is a bunch of random yahoos who have no direct involvement with Biden or his campaign.

See the difference? Of course you don't.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

He got into law school with a criminal record? Moderateguy Mar 2020 #1

First question in my mind too. n/t rzemanfl Mar 2020 #3

Why shouldn't he? Gravitycollapse Mar 2020 #4

Because most states won't let you take the bar if you have a record Moderateguy Mar 2020 #6

The practice is exclusionary and wrong. And I know there are exceptions. Gravitycollapse Mar 2020 #8

I didn't know there were exceptions... learnt something new Moderateguy Mar 2020 #9

Yeah it all depends on the person's record. You can explain it to the Bar. Gravitycollapse Mar 2020 #14

I don't expect Biden to denounce this. Gravitycollapse Mar 2020 #7

A Bernie supporter is being harassed online for his drug history. DanTex Mar 2020 #11

But how does this relate to Biden as a candidate? Is he instigating it? Do his values support it? Gravitycollapse Mar 2020 #17

A bit more about the guy in the OP. ehrnst Mar 2020 #19

To be frank, I don't care about any of that and it by no means excuses the harassment. Gravitycollapse Mar 2020 #24

Well, I figure since Bernie is always being asked to apologize for what his supporters do, DanTex Mar 2020 #22

Bernie has given a rather weak tea, whataboutism tinged, generalized address of online harassment ehrnst Mar 2020 #30

"the same standards should apply to everyone" TwilightZone Mar 2020 #35

LOL. What do young voters in Iowa have to do with this vicious case of online harassment by DanTex Mar 2020 #36

Do you think that Biden, like Bernie, might suggest that those harassers are "bots?" ehrnst Mar 2020 #55

He may not share your political views, but that doesn't justify the online harassment he's DanTex Mar 2020 #25

"Selling her soul" isn't a political view. TwilightZone Mar 2020 #31

Of course it is. And it certainly doesn't justify people digging up his history of addiction. DanTex Mar 2020 #34
