    Real headline should be "Shahid Buttar outed as another progressive grifter by former campaign manager"

    "Looking back, I now see some of Shahid’s most destructive behavior as the moments when he was most transparent. He reacted with glee to the news that Bernie had suspended his campaign because of the fundraising boost it would give the campaign when his team reacted with devastation. He would hopefully speculate with donors that Nancy Pelosi would get COVID-19 and die because he thought that it would give him an easy win when COVID-19 cases were rising dramatically in the city. I lost all respect for the candidate that I’d worked so hard to get through the primary only to see him use his platform to enrich himself just as he called out Pelosi for doing the same."

    Her account of his reactions and conduct in campaigning against Pelosi clearly reveals that he's just another grifter enriching himself on small dollar donations. It again shows how hollow and futile this attempt to reform the democratic party is. US politics only attracts the worst people.

      Listen, I think we've all hoped at some point that COVID would at least take one of the 90 year old monsters ruling over us. We deserve a silver lining. Instead, as always, it's just poor people that die. Those ghouls are all immune.

      The Bernie reaction is bad, though.
