    Imagine comparing a Jewish person whose relatives literally died in the Holocaust to the Nazis

    The most empirical, fact-based measure of electability is whether you are actually winning the most votes.

    There will be dissertations written about the last few hours of MSNBC. Historians will dissect it for years.

    “A squeaky, angry minority.” MSNBC is gonna be must-watch TV the next few weeks. Carville follows by calling Putin the real winner today.

    Chris Matthews just compared Bernie's victory in Nevada to the Nazis taking control of France. Incredibly offensive thing to say about someone from a family of holocaust survivors.

    I’ve known for 21 years. I remember how much the establishment scoffed at him, and I marveled at how he never got demoralized & never wavered from his agenda. It is truly inspiring to see all that determination & all that movement building start to change history.

    A few days ago, read a passage likening Bernie voters to Nazi brown shirts. Now Chris Matthews is likening Bernie’s campaign to a Nazi invasion. Bernie is Jewish and his family was killed by the Nazis. None of this is OK.

    I have a really crazy idea, hear me out here for a second: Cable TV news should have more contributors who respect, represent and are connected to the Bernie movement, and fewer who insult the Bernie movement whose agenda has huge support among Dem Party voters.

    For once, I'm not being sarcastic here. I'm dead serious. I'm really, really insulted by a major pundit on an allegedly liberal news network comparing a Jewish candidate's overwhelming caucus victory to the French losing a battle with the Nazis. Get this lunatic off the air.

    Damn: Now looks like Bernie has won caucuses at Bellagio, Mandalay, Park MFM, Rio, and Wynn, tied at Harrah’s and lost Paris. He is the Culinary workers’ candidate!

    While some folks here on twitter dot com spend their days tweeting demands that I be fired for posting C-Span videos, I’m focused on making sure Donald Trump gets fired in November.

    "These are people who work on the strip within two and a half miles of the Bellagio, largely people of color of those, the majority are Latino, and they are clearly at least from eyeballing it, *LARGE SIGH* strongly in favor of Bernie Sanders"

    Actually, I rebuilt Detroit’s health department. We provided kids 6000 pairs of glasses; made sure schools were lead safe; & took on major polluters & won. Work like this happens because of the organizers, activists, & agitators who make history happen. How’s that for a “bro?”
    For all the Bernie bro’s coming after me today, I’m happy to take on your criticism if you can tell me what you’ve done to make our government better, where you’ve served, what you’ve accomplished. The rest, have a nice day

    Counterpoint: We don’t need pious lectures on “divisive behavior” from the billionaire who literally endorsed George Bush, backed the Iraq War and deployed a stop-and-frisk policy that terrorized communities of color
    Does the Senator understand that this divisive behavior is what’s going to re-elect Donald Trump?
