    The briefing is classified. I don't know (obviously) if this info was, but protecting sources and methods is no joke.

    If he was going to use it to his advantage he would have tub thumped "I have been informed that the Russians are trying to help me and I REJECT THEIR HELP! This is what a patriot does, unlike some people."

    I think he didn't know what to do with it so he did nothing. Which, 99% of the time, is the prudent thing to do.

          This is ridiculous. Sanders is a politician in the normal vein. Dump is a Mule anomaly. Nobody is a lefty Dump. That's the whole problem. Dump is a 100-year flood.

            You mean the truth in what Bernie is saying? Amplified by the fact that he is nothing like Trump?

            Yeah. I get that.

              This is mostly why, when Democratic consultants and campaign operatives hint at the similarities between Trump and Sanders or the rotation pundits on MSNBC do the same, or when Joe Biden describes the behavior of Sanders’s supporters (if not the candidate himself) as “Trump-like,” or when ostensibly conflicted Never Trumpers like The Washington Post’s Jennifer Rubin keep turning up parallels between the Democratic front-runner and the Republican president, it all feels kind of grasping and desperate and off. These are not exceptionally discerning minds, of course, but even if they remain stuck on describing the shape of what the candidates do instead of addressing what they propose, they surely can see the difference between the bloated marzipan golem who currently lords over a lawless archipelago of concentration camps for immigrants and the most reliably left-wing figure in Congress over the last three decades.

              The question, then, is why they would bother to make this obviously facile and unconvincing comparison in the first place. That answer has two parts. One is that none of these people are really much good at their very important jobs. The other is that they are scared, because Sanders’s ongoing run toward the Democratic nomination suggests that a critical mass of voters has noticed as much, and is ignoring them. If there’s any real parallel to be drawn between Trump and Sanders, it’s how their respective rises have revealed the flubby redundancy of their respective parties’ establishments.
              What kind of cheese are you planning to put on top?

                Maybe he knew about the possibility of it, and they had to verify it? That could have taken that long to confirm.

                I do agree with your last sentence for sure, in any case.

                        Early entrance polls have Bernie taking 50% of the Hispanic vote, next are Biden and Pete around 10% each. Biden leads black voters with 36%, but Bernie is at 25%.

                        Moderates are all split at roughly 21% each for Biden, Pete, and Bernie. Bernie is taking "very liberal" with 52%, Warren next at 17%.

                          There is someone in a Warren group with a #Bucciovertimechallenge shirt and a Tulane hat. He needs to be interviewed. So many cross sections.

                            Half of all results were in by this point in 2016. Caucuses need to be outlawed. If you like the idea, just use ranked choice in a primary.
