Sanders is too much of a coward to directly attack anyone except the women who he runs against.

He & his well paid testosterone heavy staff, and maybe a few of the underpaid women too, are smart enough to pawn the task off to his "movement" which is only too happy to oblige.

1/
*whom

Of course his supporters will claim that Sanders is just an innocent, unknowing bystander to their coordinated attacks against ALL possible competition from the Democratic Party, particularly POC and women.

Which, if true, only serves to make Sanders look worse.

2/
Why worse?
How worse, you ask?

Because given his own admission that he didn't pay any got damn attention to anything that actually went on in his own campaign, including whether or not women were harassed or even paid fairly inside it, this looks real bad.

3/
Because the question has to be asked, if Sanders couldn't control his campaign, has no influence with his supporters, and willfully turned a blind eye so often to so many of the social precepts he claimed to support, then how could he run a party or a country?

Nope.

4/
The idea that Sanders supporters get to recklessly attack every Democrat, that the Bros get to bum rush influential progressive women supporters online, or that they get to swarm many in attempts to bully, is preposterous and dangerous.

5/
For Sanders to continually reap the political benefits of his supporter's dark, politics as usual, methods is something they may think will happen, but, as usual, the theories espoused, fail to clear the hurdle of reality.

It's not going to happen.

6/
Sanders and his staff are fully aware of everything his supporters do online and off.

If you think David Sirota would possibly risk his position within the Sanders universe by independently attacking Beto without Bernie's approval then you have no idea how politics work.

7/
When someone hires another person to kill someone else that person is held as legally guilty of murder as the trigger person, even more so. Consider it a form of political assassination.

The swarm attacking my tweet that said Sanders attacked Beto, are doing this right now.
