Russians allegedly help Trump...Trump is a villain.

Weird how that works.

I don’t see them framing it that way. They’re already getting ahead of Bernie gaining a decisive lead in the race so they can accuse him of being a Russian agent before the convention.

It is not really weird when you consider the ulterior motive behind it.

So we might have a general election where both candidates are agents of Putin? What a time to be alive.

They've got to walk a tight rope.

Imply he's a Russian agent just enough to cause him to lose the Dem nomination BUT...…...not so much that if he still wins the nomination, they can't just switch gears and say, "well, he's not like Trump"

Exactly

Tucker nailed it recently

Retard or not, they can’t control Bernie like they can with the others. It’s all about keeping power and the status quo in DC.

This is probably the best take.

At this point Bernie will either win the nomination outright or win the most delegates but fall slightly short of an outright majority.

The DNC is trying to manufacture a reason to deny Sanders the nomination at a brokered convention that the public might accept.

Accuse?

Bernie in 1972 - "I don't mind people calling me a communist."

Except Bernie's supporters, they won't accept it. Which I'm quite surprised that this eventuality doesn't scare the hell outta the DNC and Dems at large. I assume they believe, as usual, that people (Bernie supporters) are flat out stupid and will forget all about their guy being screwed and end up falling in line. Looks to me like massive miscalculation in the making.

Bernie was a huge fan of the USSR. USSR is dead. Modern Russia =/= USSR.

That’s not what I’m seeing. Lots of people on Twitter and morning shows pissed about Bernie not disclosing this earlier and for the way he threw WaPo
under the bus for reporting it. Almost trump-like in the way he’s handled this leak.

Could you perhaps fill the rest of us in on your idea of Trump's handling of leaks??

Made the mistake of turning on foxnews instead of OAN this morning. They were saying the Russians were helping Bernie because they wanted it to harm Bernie in order to help Trump. Do you have OAN in the southeast? I subscribe over Roku now and it’s the best $5 per month I spend.

Taking some evening classes and one of my classmates is a Russian immigrant. Guess I better start having him teach me his language, comrades.

Remember in the 80’s when Reagan JOKED about nuking the Russians and the MSM soiled themselves. He was just a mean old cowboy with his Star Wars weapons threatening their comrades in Russia.
