        @sapinker As one who cares about language, you should be ashamed to promote the term Bernie Bro. You would never Hillary H_. Equivalence.

        .@sapinker #Bernie2016 supporters are 'Petulant, Self-Righteous BernieBros' via @paulkrugman. Sounds like Paul Krugman is over the edge imho

        @sapinker attacking him on having flimsy policies on the banks? He proposed legislation three times, last in 2015. This article is hilarious

        @sapinker It's not supposed to be cute. Making a real change is tough and sometimes that means telling hard truths.

        @sapinker some good points. As usual ignores any info that contradicts. Completely biased against Sanders

        @sapinker I find the nearly universal disappointment in your RT'ing this garbage heartwarming. Most people who follow you are with Bernie.
