Bernie Sanders just declared war on the Democratic establishment
If you want to make a politician really, really angry, endorse their primary opponent. That's exactly what Bernie Sanders did Saturday to Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz.
"Clearly, I favor her opponent," Sanders said in an interview with CNN's Jake Tapper set to air today. "His views are much closer to mine than as to Wasserman Schultz's. Let me also say this, in all due respect to the current chairperson: If [I am] elected president, she would not be reappointed chairwoman of the DNC."
...Wasserman Schultz, for her part, issued a terse statement Saturday aimed at taking the high road -- at least publicly. "Even though Senator Sanders has endorsed my opponent, I remain, as I have been from the beginning, neutral in the presidential Democratic primary,” she said. “I look forward to working together with him for Democratic victories in the fall.”
