Yep, Bernie's staff put out lies while the convention was happening to whip his protesters up into a rage, the resulting riots makes it into mainstream press with favorable coverage for Bernie's side at first, the coverage turns negative unexpectedly after the Nevada state party fights back, Bernie refuses to condemn his supporters, Bernie walks out of an interview when asked about Nevada, Harry Reid has a very long meeting with Bernie telling him he has to do something, Bernie puts out a letter basically saying his supporters were in the right to riot and repeats the same lies* his staff sent out that started the riots, Reid says he's very very disappointed in Bernie. That's our timeline so far unless I'm missing anything?
What a courageous and effective leader. Such a shame he never became president, I'd have loved to see him handle the Cuban missile crisis!
*even if you don't believe the myriad blog posts and news reports from the floor, a simple examination of the rules is enough to see that Bernie's staff were lying. Bernie knows full well what he's doing and that the Nevada state party followed the rules exactly, rules that his campaign helped draft.
