I hope Bernie gets asked at tomorrow's South Carolina debate about disclosing his medical records.

But by releasing one simple indicator of his heart health, Sanders could address some lingering questions, the president of the American College of Cardiology, Richard Kovacs, tells NBC News.

Following Sanders’ heart attack, doctors inserted two stents in an artery and he was hospitalized for several days. After promising to release “comprehensive” records after the procedure, his campaign balked, saying no more information would be forthcoming.

Secretive just like Trump.

This is an example of why sex-segregated spaces are vital.

If you let some men in under the excuse of "gender identity," then you have to let them ALL in.

This would be nothing short of a public safety disaster.

Yes, Floridians are pissed off at Sanders' idiotic remarks about the virtues of Castro.

Mayor Pete is correct, but he, like Sanders, needs to step aside and make way for Joe Biden.  Biden's numbers have gone up in South Carolina, which is a good thing.

After four years of looking on in horror as Trump cozied up to dictators, we need a president who will be extremely clear in standing against regimes that violate human rights abroad. We can't risk nominating someone who doesn't recognize this. pic.twitter.com/N2JHGzns93

Another view about the alleged "frontrunner" Bernie Sanders.

Mitchell also noted that Turner had used a similar tactic against Bloomberg some days before.

"I'm watching terminology being used right now because Nina Turner started the whole 'oligarchy' thing [on MSNBC] and now everybody's using oligarchy," she said. "But we don't have f**king oligarchs!"

Although Guttenberg and Mitchell are continuing to sound the alarm about Sanders supporters' malign behavior and online disinformation, a Democratic activist who speaks regularly with Sanders campaign staff says it's unlikely that Sanders will make any effort to rein in his staff or change their behavior, or that of his supporters, because he approves of it.

"Bernie knows exactly what's happening," the activist said. "And his campaign is in the loop about this coordinated viciousness."

Scumbags, the whole lot of them.
