Hard to imagine any prosecutor actually charging him, but still -- he plainly committed the offense.

@mtracey is that state or federal law?

@MeganDoolally state

@mtracey Brave move just to show support for a sell-out champaign socialist

@churlydude He's no sellout and no champaign socialist. He's one of the only true progressive we've left in congress.

@FisherBurton No sellout? What do you call endorsing Clinton then?

@churlydude Literal political survival. It certainly didn't make me happy.

@FisherBurton He didn't have to endorse her. He could have just taken the L and faded away like Ron Paul (actually principled) in 2012

@churlydude Exactly. And Ron Paul faded away; Sanders is still here with a significant power base.

@FisherBurton I didn't mean fade away out of popularity. I mean faded as in not literally campaigning for everything u claim to b against

@churlydude And the Democrats would have buried him. He would be a pariah right now.

@mtracey Michael Moore is paying the fine...

@elmerjfudd2012 @mtracey Which is illegal, from what I hear. #Bribery

@Kims_Tweets_ @elmerjfudd2012 @mtracey ... and it doesn't get a class E felony off of his record. Good luck finding employment for 7 years.

@quirky_gym_rat @Kims_Tweets_ @elmerjfudd2012 @mtracey "You have a felony?" "Yes, I voted for Bernie as an elector in 2016." YOU'RE HIRED!

@Noratoriou5 @Kims_Tweets_ @elmerjfudd2012 @mtracey I agree. But, many companies have HR policies which prohibit the hiring of felons.

@Noratoriou5 @Kims_Tweets_ @elmerjfudd2012 @mtracey furthermore, as a felon, he can no longer legally own a firearm or vote.

@quirky_gym_rat @Kims_Tweets_ @elmerjfudd2012 @mtracey Actually, in Maine felons can vote.

@Noratoriou5 @Kims_Tweets_ @elmerjfudd2012 @mtracey interesting. They can't in Texas.
