Toxic Bernie?

Things are getting ridiculous...

Bernie Sanders' supporters online are attacking and progressive, moderate, or mainline Democrat on Twitter that dares to express a favorableview on any candidate that isn't Bernie Sanders. Senator Sanders (still not a Democrat) has only been able to muster weak meaningless rebuke of "bullies" in a sort of bad people on both sides kinda way.

Today Michael Bloomberg struck back, and instantly exposed a real liability for Senator Sanders. This same behavior of the so called "Bernie Bros" was a major issue in 2016 but MSM paid very little attention to it. This cycle seems different. And is gaining traction rapidly. I suspect we will see the backlash evident in primary results maybe as soon as Nevada.

Bernie is at a perilous point... And I, for one, am not upset about that.
