    The same people who rushed to defend Hillary Clinton after she covered up sexual harassment by a top aide are now going to tell us how it's disqualifying that Bernie Sanders didn't know about sexual harassment allegations from several regional staffers in 2016.

        Incidentally, these are the same folks who defended Neera Tanden after she revealed at a company meeting the name of a female staffer who'd been harassed. They defended Kamala Harris after she kept a staffer on after a sexual harassment lawsuit was filed against him.

        Having said that, if it comes out that Sanders knew about these allegations and did nothing, obviously, he should be held accountable even though the above indivuals I named weren't.

        Sexual harassment and sexism are major societal problems. They're difficult issues to solve. They aren't limited to one side of the aisle or the other. How a public figure handles harassment within their staff when they learn about it matters.

        I think it goes without saying that stories like these are terrible and organizations, including campaigns, should have adequate procedures in place for when harassment happens so that at any level, it isn't tolerated.

        It is important to add that Masha Mendieta claims Sanders did know of her harassment allegations.

        If true, that should be something Sanders answers for before he runs again in 2020.

        As @OurRev305 pointed out, in the past, Mendieta wrote that to her knowledge, neither Sanders nor Jeff Weaver knew. Her latest recounting does not include any details as to why she changed her tune. The NYT story did not include her latest claim.pic.twitter.com/gs6MCPUSeg

        Your dude literally just went on TV and said that he was too busy to deal with it. He was also so busy that he missed 71% of the roll call votes in 2016. What the fuck was he not too busy to do? Lose the primary in a landslide? Could have stayed in DC and done that.

        No, he went on tv and said that he, as a national candidate, was not aware of these allegations from regional staffers.

        first, this happened in 2008 - a different, pre-#MeToo world. second, the victim agreed with how clinton handled the situation. third, Clinton didn’t say she was “too busy” - she dealt with it promptly. fourth, she freely admits she would handle it differently today. try again.pic.twitter.com/9ogIkktizr

        Oh. This is the “he didn’t say what you heard him say” portion of the thread. Gotcha.

        What’s outrageous is perhaps not that he didn’t know, but that his gut response to it was “I was busy” and not “I’m deeply sorry that happened to them.”

        Actually that’s exactly what he said. The ‘I was busy’, was at the end of the interview when Cooper asked him again if he knew about these allegations:pic.twitter.com/NZ95vNl0Ye

        Funny because apparently he wasn’t too busy to know actually so his weak words truly mean nothing.https://medium.com/@mashamendieta/be-your-own-hero-because-bernie-is-not-it-c4add2e08029 …

        I think her allegations and others should be taken very seriously and investigated and Author should eb held accountable. Until then he has no place in this movement. In her article, however, she claims Sanders knew about this all along yet never explains how she knows that.

        Is it not fair to want more information before taking either of their claims as true, both Sanders that he didn't know and Mendieta's that he did?
