Clinton says "nobody likes" Sanders and calls him a "career politician"

[Figueira]

I'll note that this thread has like 100+ replies and I can't find any posts disputing the actual substance of what Hillary said:

A) Sanders has (virtually) no friends in the Senate, and never has

B) He's never accomplished anything of note

C) He is a "career politician"

Instead it's six pages of "shut your f***ing mouth, bitch, you lost and everyone hates you."

I see you missed my reply on the first page which has 9 recommendations

"Nobody likes him, nobody wants to work with him, he got nothing done," Clinton told the Hollywood Reporter as a part of the upcoming Hulu documentary on the former secretary of state. "He was a career politician. It's all just baloney and I feel so bad that people got sucked into it."

I see no lies here.

He's part of the Senate Democratic Caucus leadership team and was chairman of the Veteran's Affairs Committee where he worked with John McCain to co-author a bill on veteran's health, so it's obviously untrue that no-one likes Sanders or wants to work with him. Clinton is projecting her own feelings onto Sanders' colleagues in the Senate with whom he gets on fairly well.

That story just has people saying they're impressed with his campaign.  None of them endorsed him except his Vermont co-senator.

The one-page VA bill was addressed above.

Actually Leahy endorsed Clinton. It was Jeff Merkley who endorsed Sanders.

Oh I was talking about this cycle.  Basically this article has a handful of senators saying nice things about him in 2017 or whenever, but none of them actually endorsed him in 2020.

Surprised Leahy endorsed Clinton in 2016, must have been early because usually senators automatically get the endorsement of their other state senator (assuming same party).

That seems to be true this cycle, except Harris wasn't endorsed by Feinstein (she endorsed Biden) and Gillibrand wasn't endorsed by Schumer (but I'm guessing Senate party leaders don't endorse). Leahy, Markey, Smith, and (formerly) Menendez have all endorsed their Senate partners.
