I’ll give him absolutely no benefit of the doubt in terms of backroom deals because he was such a vocal Zionist publicly. If Bernie wanted to put any pressure on Biden, he’d seize on the unpopularity of the issue with his base. Instead he abandoned that base and had them arrested at his office. He’s the progressive Dianne Feinstein psychotically holding onto power he isn’t competent enough to use.

I can fully believe that he thinks he can change minds by playing nice. I also believe he’s a mark.
