    Assume a direct connection between Klobuchar's "petty tyrant" behavior with staff and her many years as a tough-on-crime prosecutor. You have to be somewhere on the "psychologically deranged" spectrum if your great career ambition is to throw people in prison

        It's also hilarious how so many top comments on this story are from angry liberals castigating a sexist double standard, even though every outlet that's reported on this has gone to great lengths to stress that the staffers complaining about her include *feminist women*pic.twitter.com/CyPdyZijI0

        I wouldn’t assume that without looking at the many other politicians who were tough-on-crime prosecutors and finding out if they were terrible bosses too.

        I can think of other tough-on-crime prosecutors who turned out to be quite deranged. Rudy Giuliani foremost among them.

        How about her undying support for Israel? With Klobuchar in office, how many billions more in tax dollars will go to Israel? Will Klobuchar run all of her decisions through Bibi? Imagine how many more Palestinians will be murdered. #NeverKlobucharhttp://www.policyconference.org/article/transcripts/2018/klobuchar.asp …

        Yes, "petty tyrant" places her btwn HRC & DT on the "psychologically deranged" spectrum - meanwhile, there's an obviously altruistic person running who has been fighting for civil rights, the environment, and against Wall Street, 4 a lifetime, & is renowned for working w/ others.

        Keeping violent criminals who have ruined the lives of others off the streets is not a worthy profession?

        A pretty decent heuristic: reject candidates who were prosecutors outright. Same thing with senators from NY, NJ and CT

        Correction, tough on crime unless it's the powerfully then it's compassion time.

        On the other hand a person could look at it as wanting to protect innocent people and society in general.
