He gets plenty of hate here. I've seen him called a shyster and fraud multiple times.

"multiple times" means more than two basically.

Does he get anywhere near the level of Tulsi Gabbard?

Also if as you claimed the fact that she endorsed Sanders is literally the ONLY reason anyone bashes her then why do I hate her and bash her when I supported Sanders?

The question was does Sanders get as much hate on this board, and the answer is an unequivocal yes, it's only balanced by the fact that he has more supporters.

And yes, even you--someone who allegedly supported Sanders during the primary would likely have nothing to say about Gabbard had she stayed mum and later endorsed Clinton. It's the fact that she left her position in the DNC and endorsed Bernie during the primary, that she received so much attention in the first place.

My problem with Tulsi Gabbard has nothing to do with anything regarding the Democratic primary, or the DNC or anything of that sort.

I dislike Tusli Gabbard since she has taken weirdly conservative positions on numerous political issues, and that she voted with Trump more than expected for someone from a District as heavily Democratic as hers based on the 538 tracker (which in my opinion, should be a litmus test for whether or not someone needs to be primaried).

Did you dislike her before 2016? How many Democrats in Congress with weird conservative positions get the attention that she does here?

I don't hear Manchin, Lipinski, or Peterson claiming that they're progressives.

So it's because she calls herself a progressive (despite supporting progressive policy) and not her foreign policy positions? If she didn't call herself progressive you wouldn't care as much?

Dianne Feinstein has very conservative positions to be a Senator from California... pro war on drugs, pro spying, anti-single payer. Not a peep from Atlas, in fact most of you endorse her 2018 campaign.

Tulsi Gabbard on civil unions as a state legislator:

This bill is very disrespectful to the people of Hawaii who have already spoken loud and clear on this issue. As Democrats we should be representing the people and not a small group of homosexual extremists.

Yeah that's inexcusable
