When articles discussing how "mean" Senator Amy Klobuchar is but are much milder when talking about prima donna extraordinaire Bernie Sanders, you KNOW there is a ton of sexism involved.


People who have known Mr. Sanders for years say that, if anything, he is more intense and can be insensitive to people who encounter his moods — in other words, even more Bernie than Bernie. Being around Mr. Sanders, they say, is to watch him endlessly wind himself up and back down, long periods of tension punctuated by brief, welcome intervals of calm.

Within hours of having two cardiac stents installed after his heart attack, the senator was back on the phone with senior aides in Washington, grilling them on proposed staff hires, dictating media strategy and asking for details of an advertising buy, aides said.

That intensity can sometimes cross the line. He has a history of angry outbursts, especially when he believes people are not working hard enough or are exposing him to political risk.
Anybody with a brain knows he can be a vile shit--just ask Elizabeth Warren--but that is one of the traits his braindead followers LOVE.

After all, many of them are just like him or even worse.
