And here is Bernie from yesterday. He denies knowledge, yet it was well reported at how his campaign was leveraging sex appeal to appeal to young people by, among other things, using dating apps like Tinder. Of course, even on this Board, this was not really condemned. At the time, this was seen as cutting edge and innovative.

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), who is allegedly becoming more serious by the day about forging a second White House bid to challenge President Donald Trump in 2020, offered an apology to former women staffers from his 2016 presidential campaign who have in recent days raised complaints of sexual harassment.

"I certainly apologize to any woman who felt she was not treated appropriately," Sanders told CNN's Anderson Cooper Wednesday evening. "And, of course, if I run, we will do better the next time."

While he said he was "proud" of his campaign, Sanders admitted that allegations of mistreatment were "not dealt with as effectively as possible." At the same time, the senator maintained he only recently learned of the accusations, which he claims he was not aware of during the campaign. "I was a little busy running around the country, trying to make the case" for the election, Sanders said, attributing any missteps with staff to his campaign's overwhelming growth and momentum.

for sexual harassment.

I don't care if the person involved is a Democratic contender. He. Is. Wrong.

It is misusing a dating app.

It was not just tinder. Bernie's campaign was praised on numerous outlets regarding how romance was leveraged together with political support. It was not just being progressive. It was dating centered around support for Bernie Sanders. It is just odd how the campaign is now distancing itself from what was once featured, the sex appeal of the Bernie Sanders campaign.

I just recall it being weird, because I understand being attracted to people with similar political philosophies, but all these stories back in 2016 about Bernie Singles mixing romance with politics. In other words, back then, no one was seeing this as sexual harassment or exploitation. Rather, it was seen as an innovative use of social media.

Say you’re spending your days drinking out of a Bernie Sanders coffee mug, sporting your Bernie Sanders underwear, and maybe even sleeping with a little crocheted Bernie doll with a perfect wisp of white hair. But say that’s not enough.

Well, a new dating site has answered your prayers. By joining BernieSingles.com, you can now even snatch up your very own Bernie Bro — or lady.

That’s right: A dating site has cropped up exclusively to make romantic pairings amongst the Vermont senator’s most enthusiastic fans. Especially after two Sanders supporters were booted off the popular dating app Tinder for using the app to recruit volunteers, it's time they have a dating platform of their own. The site’s creators are clearly onto something – young people love Bernie, and they also love online dating.

But the people behind BernieSingles.com might have underestimated just how many young singles are looking for democratic socialist mates. The Hill reports that the site crashed on Wednesday after attracting 1,000 users in an hour. And the server likely couldn’t keep pace with demand on Thursday either, suffering more intermittent outages in the morning.

Sexual harassment on the campaign. I think they were talking about the inappropriate behavior that is rampant in most field and campaign offices. I have first hand experience seeing this on multiple campaigns including Obama's. Bernies was only one where this likely occured.

Interesting what is coming out.

online for who gets on our debate stage?? Yeah, make a bunch of fake names and then say you qualify to debate because of your online followers?? How stupid do they think we are? Truly unbelievable.

You really can't make this shit up these days.

It doesn’t seem like the best question to ask.

was actually a not so welcome calamity? So maybe the 10 Commandments actually came from a woman's "lips" but were translated from the hallucinations he got the next day from the vicious fever he came down with.

I saw another thread with 2 or 3 year old articles attacking him. Seems a rehash and divisive. Also very boring. Same old shite over and over and over and over.

Don't vote for him or support him if he runs in 2020, which I hope he doesn't, but 2016 is done and dusted.

...whether there was sexism or sexual harassment going on in his campaign in 2016? I find it surprising given the sheer number of articles in early 2016 that were discussing how the Bernie Sanders campaign was leveraging social media dating platforms to get people the feel the Bern.

Are you suggesting that Bernie forgot this yesterday?

Plus, I am sure Trump is saying the same thing. "Hey, all this Russia stuff happened three years ago. C'mon!"
