#OnlyBernie trending is an unnecessary reminder than Bernie is only about Bernie. It's a cult not a movement and it's about him, not about policy. If it were about policy they would not support such an incompetent underachiever.
Those who point out that #OnlyBernie said the candidate with the plurality of votes coming into the convention should get the nomination even though the rules require a majority need to know that Bernie was advocating the SDs overturn the nomination in 2016 despite HRC majority
So that claim is more of the rank opportunism that has always been a Bernie hallmark. Those who call him Amendment King need to know he is not, he was the Roll Call Amendment King - you know the amendments people grandstand with for C-Span.
His record is based on passing 17 roll call amendments. The other play-for-the-cameras record holder was James Traficant who passed 16 in fewer years. Patrick Leahy (also VT) has passed 226 amendments to Bernie's 90 but then he was doing it in committee not for the cameras
