36. Boom!

102. He looks like he has

Jaundice...

[catchnrelease]

104. My favorite

Charlie Pierce refers to him as the 'vulgar talking yam'. I laugh every time I read that.

[WiffenPoof]

108. Jaundice it Is!!!!

...now give him the antidote.

[pangaia]

57. Yes. That IS, I hate to say, a concern now.

[PatrickforO]

59. And more so when he starts winning big states.

Check out this Harvard Law School forum article about how large corporations have captured the USA. These parasites with their old, shaking, liver-spotted, wrinkled white hands grasping after EVER MORE PROFITS won't take kindly to a Bernie presidency.

https://corpgov.law.harvard.edu/2012/01/05/the-corporate-capture-of-the-united-states/

[pangaia]

63. I can not look at it.

[virgista]

83. Your Harvard Law School forum article is right on. (readers, see above)

A dryish format, for lawyers after all, but an excellent synopsis of the creeping malaise affecting our country.

[WHEN CRABS ROAR]

90. The large corporations aren't satisfied with just capturing the USA

What they really want is the entire world and who's going to stop them?

[PatrickforO]

93. I've been thinking the ISDS provisions of the TPP

are their move to do just that - capture the world and take all power from the nation states.

[Carolina]

92. Great article

and sadder still that we are 4 years down the road since it was written,and we are worse off.

[nolabels]

94. That's some real freakin regurgitated hooey there

These wrinkled up old men and those pencil pushers behind them only can fantasize that they planned for everything. Earth, Karma and good ole Murphy will always get the last laugh

The finite control of our existence is that we are all finite

[PatrickforO]

109. Or maybe it is regurgitated because it is true.

How do we really know there isn't some uber-wealthy group of international business people who don't plot stuff like this? I can't prove there is, but then you cannot prove there isn't...

[nolabels]

112. I would not worry about it even if i thought it might work somehow

Financial overthrows and collapses will be of small consequence the way our entire world is headed. Between ecological obliteration overpopulation, global warming and ten or twenty other catastrophes headed our way in the near future that we can predict (probably more coming our way that we don't know about yet). What makes you think somebody working on or with wall street or some other top heavy institution will have an advantage over the the knowledge that you have personally?

I see it in the coming years and decades that we will all have to work together even more closely or civilization as we know it, will vanish. One groups dominance over another is getting to point of being counter productive. How it will all work, i don't know but i know we can figure it out. We will have to figure it out because if we don't much more perilous roads await us if we don't.

Also if you haven't noticed, many things move, change and travel much faster every year and minute by minute. This also one of those who work at linear assumptions fail to realize. Get out, check things, nothing stays the same. Even a fossil that seems it wouldn't change, changes because as you get closer to where it is you get to understand it better. This happens because we are connected in ways we still don't understand but might need to later on. You can dismiss things as being nutty but there is grain of truth or many grains of truth in everything. I don't underestimate those with large bank that have access and where-with-all but it didn't help them that much in those other civilizations that came before us either. You can really ask yourself, what i do today, will or will it not matter in a hundred years? How will know or not know if it did?

[litlbilly]

118. My thoughts exactly:)

Sort of like a bunch of people are arguing about what type of tracks they are on, one says, bear tracks, another says deer track, another say no, they're tiger tracks, then the train runs them all over. There is much more going on in the world , that is actually now the size of a baseball, that we truly are all in this together and we better figure it out soon. I'm thinking only about 1/3 of the population of the world will survive whatever is coming in the immediate future, and may 1/3 of their offspring will survive, then we will have no choice but to figure it out together. Whatever it is that's coming, will affect everyone on the planet. Just a brain rant

[deathrind]

103. Excellent and

Very disheartening read.

[Ferd Berfel]

64. Drumpf supporters are insane

I know some of the less violent ones.

I'm not comfortable with this.

[zeemike]

72. No just bullies.

They do insane violence or rather threaten it, to intimidate people.

And Bernie is doing the right thing when dealing with bullies...stand up to them and show no fear.

[Ferd Berfel]

73. He won't be in the crowd taking the punches and kicks

When the brown shirts arrive

[zeemike]

80. And he won't be in jail when they are arrested for assault.

There still are laws...and their brown shirts are still subject to them.

If people want to show their ass let them, but there is a system to deal with it.

[Ferd Berfel]

113. Your should read this one

http://www.democraticunderground.com/1280145449#post32

Check the times on my first response here and the one above newly posted.
It didn't take long.

[Nickel79]

116. Unfortunately, I couldn't agree more.

Trump's followers strike me as the type that would genuinely try to hurt someone like Bernie. I hope the Secret Service is paying attention and not cutting any corners.

[michaz]

4. Perfect Response!! n/t

[Karma13612]

7. Reminds me of the scene in West Wing when

Bartlett responds to the Repugs threat to shut down the government.

"Then Shut it Down"

Love it.

"Bring it on"

Beave response from a man of integrity

[passiveporcupine]

41. And courage

[Mufaddal]

9. Did they delete it?

Can't find it on the campaign TL.

[Cheese Sandwich]

45. Seems more fake than anything.

Doesn't sound like something the Sanders campaign would say on twitter.

[spedtr90]

96. was posted by Millennials for Bernie

Found it on Trump's twitter

[SkyDaddy7]

128. Yes, when it began making the rounds on Facebook...

yesterday I went straight to Bernie's Twitter feed & it was nowhere to be found...Now the first part, the THREAT FROM TRUMP, is very true & can be found on his Twitter feed!

I don't like things like this because it makes it look like Bernie is participating in the escalating of the violence which is the exact OPPOSITE of who he is! However, trying to get people to take down the fake tweet explaining this is NOT who Bernie is was met with anger & disgust. People just don't get how we'll be judged on a completely different level by the media & Bernie will get the blame...Or they don't care as long as they get a likes on their FB/DU post.

[bigwillq]

10. Bam!

He would waste Trump in the GE.

[Capt.Rocky300]

40. The scary part is that...

there are so many of them.

[passiveporcupine]

42. Plus, I think his supporters would not be brave enough

to attend a Bernie rally, unless disguised.

[pangaia]

58. Oh yes they would..

[lastlib]

68. Brave enough, no.

SICK and PSYCHOPATHIC enough, emphatically YES!!

Protect yourself, Bernie!

[passiveporcupine]

69. I think if they did come to one of his rallies

as themselves, it would have to be a very large group (for safety). I think most people who are attracted to the rantings of a bully and a coward, are bullies and cowards themselves.

[UglyGreed]

30. LOL

that made me laugh

[MgtPA]

31. ...

:large

[DaveT]

33. Too early to know

if any Trump people will take him up.

If they do, this could be a big help to our campaign.

We know our candidate and his message. He means it when he says the we need to unite rather than divide people. He will invite them in to reason with them.

If a formation of people wearing Trump "colors" starts to march in to a Sanders rally, he will try to have a civil discourse with them. If they come on like Hells Angels, it will all be on TV and it will really hurt Trump. But if they respect the olive branch from Bernie, and conduct a civil dialog, all of America will see what it really wants to see, real people working out our differences to live in peace.

I'm not saying that the dialog would resolve anything -- but if the riot that everybody expects, and that the media wants so desperately to televise, does not happen, Sanders looks like the right person to lead our country.


He is a great leader. I never knew that about him. We are lucky to have him.

On edit since it appears that this may be a fake: Good response, but Bernie's response to Trump's comments this weekend on ABC were great.

[JFKDem62]

37. Prefect answer. Go Bernie! nt

[Tree Frog]

38. A real leader's response!

BERNIE!

You got my vote, oh wait, I already voted and you WON big-time in my state!

[Cleita]

39. I was thinking the same when I heard Trumpet saying it on the TV today.

Good. Maybe they'll listen and come to know what the real deal is. I do know that many Trump supporters like him because he's not part of the inner circle of revolving door politicians and he's critical of the status quo. Bernie is also outside that revolving door and is critical of the status quo, however, Bernie articulates what the real problems are to be critical of, not the ones Trumpet makes up to stir up unrest.

[RedCappedBandit]

43. Not his real account

But I thought it was funny too

[Cheese Sandwich]

44. I think that's fake. Looks photoshopped. Bernie didn't really say "Send them..."

Am I right?

[JonLeibowitz]

46. You're right. It was fake.

[Cheese Sandwich]

48. If it were real it would have been totally badass, but somewhat irresponsible.

[bettyellen]

53. but everyone here is thrilled to pretend it is real.

Interesting.

[JonLeibowitz]

66. Oh give me a break. It is a hilarious tweet. And we have correctly mentioned that it is not from

Bernie.

[bettyellen]

70. I don't think the 50 people above you realized it was fake. Honestly, this is kind of weird...

because it just sounds really irresponsible and un-Bernie like. But I assumed he had a lapse in judgement and did tweet it because so many supporters thought he did. Very odd.


Honestly, people post so much total bullshit in this forum I should not be surprised. No one seems to care if what they post is true as long as they can ruffle some feathers.

[JonLeibowitz]

71. "No one" -- except the people here who pointed out that it was not done by Bernie.

We can still laugh at it.

[bettyellen]

76. I was saying it is odd to see so many people wishing Bernie would stoop to respond like that

to bullying taunts. But a good 50-60 people on this thread bought it.
Seems really out of character from what we'd want a candidate to do.

[brett_jv]

88. No, it's exactly what we'd want him to do, and there's nothing wrong with that ...

It would not be even remotely irresponsible, nor 'stooping'.

It would've kicked ass, quite simply.

[bettyellen]

89. Well then you must all be so disappointed it was a fake tweet then?

Glad Bernie is staying above the fray. Some people just love to roll in gutter and you can't stop them, but you should not be fooled into joining them.

[Logical]

120. You whine a lot. Nt

[bettyellen]

121. I am not whining at all- thanks, it's just plain weird that people would react positively to that

obviously fake stupid tweet. Bernie doesn't get in pissing matches with bullies- that would be stupid.

[Kalidurga]

126. They wanna be mad over fake tweets

meanwhile sending cluster bombs to urban areas awwwwwwwwww it's just our foreign policy out on a lark.

[Vattel]

91. Phew, I almost wrote a post citicizing him for the tweet.

[Chipper Chat]

49. Oh, SMACK

Go Bernie

[Takket]

50. drop the friggin mic Bernie!

[Buzz Clik]

51. Twitter wars. The replacement for writing on the bathroom wall.

[bettyellen]

52. Jeeze I hope he didn't say that. Doesn't sound like him to escalate the situation.

[shanti]

54. Burn!

or rather, Bern! I love how he hits anything thrown at him out of the park!

[pangaia]

55. Damn, the guy is good...

[MADem]

56. Why respond to that guy at all?

Send them?

So they can start fights and turn the event into a shitfling, like the Trump ones?


smh.


Who wrote that response, I wonder? Ahhh--it's a FAKE. A photoshop. A misdirection. Untrue.


Good thing.

I do not think it is a smart idea to throw down to crazies. You legitimize them when you do that.

[bettyellen]

77. Bernie is too smart to engage like that. Despite the hopes of most people here, he is better than

that.

[PoliticalMalcontent]

60. What an excellent response.

I'm so excited for the chance to caucus for this guy in a few weeks.

[cyberpj]

61. Brains will always beat bullies in the end.

Sometimes you have to wait a while,

sometimes you don't.

LOVE YOU BERNIE.

[turbinetree]

65. Hey................there drumpF.........................

some of us were in the front lines protesting in the 60's and 70's --------------what were doing, hiding under a draft deferment

http://www.thesmokinggun.com/documents/celebrity/deferments-helped-trump-dodge-vietnam


At least our candidate didn't hide behind that piece of paper for the deferment and an excuse, while a lot eighteen year old's couldn't vote at one point in that conflict, but they sure could die and get drafted, so that you could hide and lie, wow, you got away with it then, just like your trying to do now, must be your standard operating procedure on everything

I wish some moderator at a debate would ask you that question, until your head explodes


Honk--------------------for a political revolution Bernie

[AlbertCat]

74. Snap!

K&R

[Peace Patriot]

75. Now THERE'S a PRESIDENT, by God!!!

You know what popped into my head the other day: How Trump could turn the violent supporters thing around would be to have INVITED the Chicago protestors onto the stage, thanked them for expressing their views, maybe letting a spokesperson or two say something, then providing them safe passage out or welcome to stay if they wanted to. That would have been PRESIDENTIAL!

Of course he scheduled his event at a Chicago university campus in the hope of trouble, so he is never going to do the right thing. But it just occurred to me what he could have done.

And now Bernie's gone and done it! THAT is A PRESIDENT!

--------------------------------------

Well, I got suckered. It looks like it's a fake Bernie post. But I still think that a peace initiative to Trump supporters is in order, and would be a great leadership move--an invitation to talk, and a disinvitation to disrupt. I happen to know that some Trump supporters are merely disgruntled people--people who are hurting like all of us-- who feel betrayed by Republican leaders. They are not hate-filled people, merely very, very unhappy with their own dreams getting upended and zero honest leadership. All kinds of angry Americans need to be listened to--if they are not 'brown-shirts.'

[Ivan Kaputski]

78. Mega Snap!

[cilla4progress]

79. Swoon.

In love with this man.

He and Pres Obama are the only people I know of who are not intimidated by Trumb

[Fritz Walter]

82. I wholeheartedly agree, but...

As I just posted elsewhere, we need a plan that's in sync with the campaign just in case the DrUMPF-sters do actually show up. With increasing scrutiny -- now that the talking heads are starting to notice us -- we must all be on the same page. Otherwise, we'd end up like the Repukes and their circular firing-squad. None of us wants that.

Here's what I just posted: http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1251&pid=1484525

P.S. Autocorrect had changed "DrUMPF-sters" to "DrUMPF-steers". A steer is a bull with no balls. Draw your own conclusion.

87. FAKE ALERT: I don't see that tweet on Bernie's official Twitter feed

Are we sure it's genuine???

[ScreamingMeemie]

98. I think it might be a photoshop. Bernie's account posts as @BernieSanders

I've searched Twitter for that handle and can't find it. I also looked at his Twitter feed and can't find it. I am about to go over to Donald J's and search that one. Have the shower ready for me.

[Festivito]

105. Probably fake. But, I argree and like the sentiment so much I still recommend it.

All I ask of nay-sayers is to please listen to Bernie, not what others say he said, but, actually to Bernie.

97. A classy response from Bernie. As usual!

speaks the truth. Another Bernie contribution on the way!

EDIT: Learn to read replies!! It's fake. .... sorry; still sending the contribution. still love him too. Peace.

[ScreamingMeemie]

100. Just so you know. It's a photoshop.

I hope you still contribute, but I wanted to let you know that.

[AikenYankee]

114. I edited original reply.

I'll still contribute again! Thanks!

[ScreamingMeemie]

115. Awesome!

[Nyan]

101. Drumpf had better be careful.

or else he'll feel the bern on the debate stage pretty soon.
Bernie should start trolling Drumpf and invite him to the debate. The networks will be more than willing to give them stage.

[WillyT]

106. HUGE K & R !!!

[bettyellen]

110. Yeah for DUMB INTERNET PRANKS?!?!?!

It's fake, and you all should be thankful. Those thugs don't need a reason to go attack people.

111. Drumpf got Berned!

[bettyellen]

122. All you guys in GDP got punked. Fake tweet. Derp.

[Nickel79]

119. Love this

Even if it wasn't Bernie. If it was, he shouldn't have mixed "see" and "sound."

I would've written it as, "Send them. They deserve to see what an honest politician looks like." Or it could be written as, "Send them. They deserve to hear what an honest politician sounds like."

Not trying to be a nitpicker here, just thought it could've been worded a tad bit better.

[AgadorSparticus]

125. BAM!!!!! Right in the kisser!! Now THAT'S a response. Go Bernie!

[Locrian]

127. bring it on

[TIME TO PANIC]

129. K & R!
