Democratic Primaries

Originally, it seemed like he was mostly focused on pushing forth his proposals. Even as he started to make more and more character attacks against Hillary, I gave him the benefit of the doubt, until he started going off the rails and started to attack the media and the Democratic party, which overshadowed any discussion of his proposals or helping the working class.

Unfortunately, Bernie has become even worse. Yes, he has his same old stump speech, but now it is largely overshadowed by his attacks against everyone and everything that is not totally on board team Bernie. It seems like his actual proposals are now just used a as a prop to launch attacks on Democrats. And, if you don't happen to support Bernie, you get thrown into this evil "establishment."

Finally, it is sad how Bernie has attacked or suppressed younger progressive proteges. Beto O'Rourke was inspired by Bernie, but then his campaign ruthlessly smeared him, because they saw him as a threat. AOC was trying to be faithful to her New York constituents, yet his campaign demanded that she make appearances to prop him up, and then leaked unflattering info about AOC when she did not jump at their beck and call.
