“When Hillary was too incompetent for her revolutions, hundreds of thousands of people died” is a strange exaggeration. “Her” revolutions? Hillary wanted to intervene in Libya because there was a revolution already afoot, and she could foresee the slaughter of the revolutionaries, and felt it was America’s duty to

“I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot someone” and his supporters would still support him.

Barney Frank does not mince words!

Bernie my dude, I like you and all, but the charmingly cantankerous old guy persona white male privilege only gets you so far. You need to actually study for the tests.

I’m voting for HRC over Sanders. I’m new to the Hilary camp though.

I think the Barney Frank interview was really telling. And if Al Franken says you are hard to work with, maybe it’s time to reevaluate your life choices. ..

I especially like this passage from Barney Frank:

Sanders supporters are always complaining how he has been ignored by the media but they don't realize that's actually how he got this far.

And yet people laughed at old folks like me who said he was all talk.

Thank you. Barney Frank does not mince words!

The “revolution” message sells. Specifics are dumb and pointless to the under-25 set.

It all sounds so great - if context, details, facts and history aren’t important to you.

I am genuinely shocked by this interview. That’s not snark, or partisanship, or anything else. 26 years in Congress, all of them championing progressive goals, eight of them since the financial crisis, EIGHT YEARS as a sitting, working legislator during the financial crisis and you don’t even know the legal

Several of the questions were, “How would a President go about achieving....___?”

Yes, as Sady Doyle said, Sanders was making law for 27 years. How do you expect for him to know anything about laws? Or even how to ride the Metro in washington?

It’s widely being proclaimed that the interview didn’t go all that well for Sanders (theWashington Post is declaring it a “disaster”).

They are excoriating him for it because he demonstrated that he lacked basic knowledge on a topic he talks about constantly. He isn’t wrong about how the system is fucked, but it is a problem that he has zero interest in figuring out how to fix it beyond giving speeches. I like the guy, but this is a serious flaw of

No, this interview really was a disaster, and now you’re trying to write off how bad it was. His only answer on trade was that he agrees with Trump! And you’re trying to bury it with the inconsequential crap about the subway? Sanders finally gets tested on his policy, fails spectacularly, and this is all you can

I’m just gonna say it: Sanders in an idiot.

Is it that much of an overstatement? It is one thing to not know specifics about every issue, but to not be able to coherently articulate an analysis and plan to deal with his main focus is concerning. That he talks about that issue 90% of the time makes his lack of comprehension even worse.

I assumed he was keeping
