Bernie, the constant victim, now blames the media for his "unqualified" rant.

[displacedtexan]

The most hilarious part: he claims a headline made him do it... Indicating that neither he nor his campaign staffers read more that the big bold print.

[Stand and Fight]

1. Using that as an excuse just make him look more like he skips over details?

I mean, it really makes it look like he can't be bothered to cover the details on things. He should simply apologize and say it was the heat of the moment and leave it at that. Bad backpedaling is bad.

[NurseJackie]

24. Would he skim the daily briefings and just read the titles?

We've already seen where that gets us.

[Stand and Fight]

25. Bingo. America can't afford someone else who skips over the details. n/t

[yallerdawg]

2. He's pandering to his contributors.

Got to keep the cash flowing, or there is no reason or purpose to continue.

Insulting and denigrating Hillary is red meat for Bernie supporters. Don't we know.

[Kber]

3. Wait, he smeared Sen Clinton as unqualified

Because his feeling were hurt??

Not because it's what he actually believes?

Follow up question, Sen Sanders: what in tar hill do you actually believe and can we trust that it's really true, not a temper tantrum?

[Lucinda]

31. Good point!

[Jitter65]

4. Told you he would do this.

But the Washington Post needs to be called out for its lying headline.

[DavidDvorkin]

5. Is that how he would conduct foreign policy as president?

[72DejaVu]

10. All Putin has to do is insult him once

And it's off to the races.

[pandr32]

17. A very serious point made!

...and one we should pay attention to

[displacedtexan]

6. Go to tpm for the whole story, but stay for the comments. Gold!

My favorite asks BS why he took Clinton pac $$$ for his senate campaign if she's so evil and unqualified.

[Native]

33. Yeah, $10,000 from HILLPAC for his Senate campaign! n/t

[riversedge]

7. Perfect tweet......

DemsAgainstBernie ?@DemsAgainstBern 2h2 hours ago

Hillary said Bernie hadn't done his homework, not that he's unqualified. After Bernie quoted a WaPo headline as a HRC quote, she has a point

[Treant]

8. I have been very quiet today

because if I said what I was currently thinking, it wouldn't survive the jury and might result in an instant ban.

Suffice to say that this tack does not surprise me...and isn't going to win back anybody who was disappointed by his earlier statements. Quite the opposite.

[displacedtexan]

9. I was afraid this OP wouldn't survive, even though it's the truth.

I also wrote that he'd gone Full Trump in another thread. I was sure that one wouldn't survive, but it has...so far.

[all american girl]

11. Man, this is just sad....kinda proves her point, though. n/t

[stopbush]

12. In Sanders' defense, the point size on a headline is YUGE

while that in the article can be quite small.

[SharonClark]

35. LOL

[NastyRiffraff]

37. Good point!

Honestly, he not only blames the media, he blames a headline! Does he only read headlines (and only above a certain point size!)

[liberal N proud]

13. He is in way over his head

[Amimnoch]

19. Boy is that an understatement!

The best thing that could happen to him is losing to Hillary.

If he think's Hillary's been rough, just wait until the Republicans start going after him. They won't stop with just him. They'll go after his wife starting with the fraud charges, they'll go after his ex-wife, they'll character assassinate him mercilessly. Everything that's been a strength for him in the primary season, he'll find to be a liability in the General election. Especially in the swing states of Ohio, Florida, Virginia, Pennsylvania.. Those states are NOT Vermont, and the one's that have already voted in the primary show a very real indication on how poorly he'll fare in the General. Especially Ohio. No president has been elected since JFK without the Ohio electoral votes.

[Her Sister]

14. Isn't it too late! He already called her unqualified!!

Is that an apology, btw?

[Amimnoch]

15. Perhaps if there was a law where news articles would include photographs and

illustrations instead of all that wordiness in the articles they write so that bernie can be better informed before he opens his trap.

[BlueMTexpat]

26. And larger print ... eom

[still_one]

16. I guess he is showing us what it means to crash and bern

[fleabiscuit]

18. IMHO, do the survey at that article too, up vote HRC. eom

[Gothmog]

20. Sanders screwed up big time and needs to apologize to Hillary Clinron

[brer cat]

21. Very juvenile.

You call me a name, I'll call you one back. So Presidential...NOT.

[SunSeeker]

28. EXACTLY. His excuse does not save him, it only damns him further. nt

[livetohike]

22. He and his campaign make me sick. So tired of all

of their whining. The campaign is nothing but whining about everything.

[peggysue2]

23. Hummmm

So if Saint Bernard were president and misread a morning headline or say, a security report, would he blow up the world???

Just asking.

This is infantile and lame on the part of St Bernard and his crew. You wish to play attack dog you need actual teeth, rather than this victimhood schtick--Oh woe is me, they're picking on me because I'm from little Vermont.

Pule-e-ese!

Meanwhile that NY Daily interview is 100% on St Bernard because he was totally unprepared. The words came from his mouth, all vague and jumbled. Can't pass the buck on that one and the insult-that-never-was is not a good deflection. It simply makes the Senator from Vermont look like a cranky whiner.

[SaschaHM]

27. Bernie Sanders has...

truly become the biggest BernieBro.

Self-righteous, holier-than-thou, perpetually victimized by the media and the party, anemic to females that don't share their views, ignores facts and plays by a different set of rules...

I could go on, but I'm sure Bernie is off somewhere creating a meme to debate me on twitter.

[SunSeeker]

29. So why didn't he apologize for his temper tantrum instead of doubling down?

[Lucinda]

30. And he added Wall Street in again too.

The dude is so not ready for prime time...

[Squinch]

32. The poor dear. He seems tired.

[Native]

34. How "Very Trumpian!"

....was my favorite comment.

I mean, seriously? This is your rationale?

"What I just said is that she has attacked me for being unqualified. And if I am going to attack for being 'unqualified' I will respond in kind,"

[liberal N proud]

36. Always someone else's fault

[Cha]

38. He wants to be POTUS.. he needs to be smarter than that.. smart like Presdient Obama and

Hillary!

That's what I said last night.. BS needs to be the victim.. he's always the victim. Not presidential material.
