I think the campaign never knew what to do with the movement, & unlike Obama, movement was less experienced to begin with.

But BernieBros more than few online spats. Harassment of supers was real; person here thought to be super but not was harassed.

I'm not writing a defense of Sanders' campaign—I don't think the top leadership understood how to run this kind of campaign.
