In reply to the discussion: 'Compassionless': Lawsuit says Bernie Sanders campaign demoted staffer day after cancer surgery [View all]peggysue2
(10,823 posts)So, we end up catfighting over this issue but it extends itself out to the animosity that's been brewing between Democratic factions since 2016. I'm not saying this woman doesn't have a legitimate complaint. I'd be pissed and hurt, too. But this is something Sanders and his former campaign people need to sort out. It's internal to the Sanders' former presidential campaign which is now irrelevant to the bigger picture and the fight ahead.
Anything that uses energy or distracts from the goal of winning in November is counterproductive in my mind. Anything that gets us fighting amongst ourselves is equally counterproductive. I simply question why a major news outlet would consider this story important enough to cover, particularly on the heels of the stats published about different elements within the Democratic Party genuinely coalescing around Joe Biden.
Color me suspicious. End of story.
