VERY astute observations about the fundamental character flaws that define the Bern.

Especially these passages:

BS has always been a stubborn micromanager going back to his Burlington days. It has always been his way or the highway. Nothing new there, it is his major fatal flaw and why he lost.
...
The other thing this article does not address is how his bitter stubbornness translated to his followers, you know the Berniebros and their online and social media trashing of other people.
