Sanders now attacking Planned Parenthood and the HRC

[YPestis25]

In the full interview he also said he would have liked to have their endorsement. This isn't so much an attack as it is a clumsy transition away from an awkward moment of having to simultaneously praise these groups, while trying to minimize their importance to your primary opponent. This seems to be grasping at the straws a bit.

The HRC endorsed Hillary, so it makes sense he wouldn't be happy with them.
But what exactly is the context to this?

Maddow basically asks him if he was disappointed he didn't get these endorsements since his policies line up with these organizations' goals, and if he'd competed for them, to which he replied he would have loved to have had them, and then pivoted into the establishment spiel.

He's taking some heat on this.

They brought this up again on Maddow's show tonight too. This looks to be a pretty big unforced gaffe on his part.
