“Jarring words” from Paul Krugman? Since when is honesty “jarring”? Bernie is lying and he got caught:
Jarring words from @PaulKrugman regarding Bernie Sanders:
“The Sanders campaign has flat-out lied about things Biden said in 2018 about Social Security & it has refused to admit the falsehood. This is bad; it is, indeed, almost Trumpian.”

Hey, at least true conservative Jennifer Rubin agrees with him:
Sadly I just tweeted the same thing re "Trumpian gaslight"

Journos are so used to Trump over the past 3 years, the forgot that all of them lie:
If Sanders is feeling the heat now, it is only because his critics and competitors are sick of giving him a free pass to present himself as an honest, pure idealist while playing Trumpian politics.

Krugman took another swipe at Bernie over his team’s circulation of an op-ed calling Joe Biden corrupt, which is also true. Can Bernie win?
This is a really bad look. It illustrates everything that makes many Democrats distrust the Sanders team — and the buck stops with the candidate https://t.co/EY1QL7YbXx

And Krugman took a shot at Hillary Clinton for nuking Bernie:
Disliking Sanders is OK. Not committing to support him if he is the nominee isn't. If you are horrified by Trump, you should be ready to go all-out for ANY Democratic nominee. https://t.co/zRlPCRKHF3
