JOHN CHUCKMAN COMMENT: THE SELECTIVE OUTRAGE OF BERNIE SANDERS AND THE CORPORATE PRESS'S EXPLOITATION OF IT - ANOTHER LIFETIME POLITICIAN COMPLAINING ABOUT RULES HE NEVER WORKED TO CHANGE


COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE IN THE INDEPENDENT


"Bernie Sanders says Donald Trump administration is ‘totalitarian'"

And, please, what has he done that can possibly be so characterized?

Bernie, each time you open your mouth anymore, you prove only how unfit you were for the presidency.

But the corporate press likes featuring you as part of its attacks on Trump.

Why? Because you have an appealing public personality with a sympathetic, avuncular presence.

Have you forgotten Hillary stole her nomination from you?

Wasn't that theft a blow at the very roots of democratic government? How can you say otherwise?

Trump was elected under the rules, and he is only using the authorities granted him by lifetime politicians like you and like Hillary and like Obama and like Bill Clinton.

You guys could have re-written the rules long ago, but you chose not to because the Democratic Party benefitted from them.
