In reply to the discussion: Not Good Enough, Bernie [View all]Violet_Crumble
(35,996 posts)349. No-one called her a bitch so I don't know where you read that...
If someone posted and called her a bitch, I'd vote to hide in the blink of an eye, but that juror comment didn't call her a bitch...
It's interesting that yr so able to read something that wasn't said into something in that case, yet in the next breath ignore the blatantly obvious linking of Bernie Sanders to those images. I'm starting to think there's some double standards happening where one thing can be bad if it's aimed at someone in a clique and something else not bad because the person it's aimed at isn't in a clique...
