Trump accusing Sanders of being too pro-Moscow is almost as amazing as
Trump accusing Biden of over-promoting under-talented sons.
Next he'll attack one of the women candidates for wearing too much makeup and too tight a girdle.

Trump likes to roll in the mud--it's what happens if you don't have much substance as far as policy or vision. Everything for him is zero sum--what's in it for me? I don't like the oligarch Bloomberg at all but he had some good responses to Trump yesterday. But really you can't let this shitbird get under your skin too much and start rolling in the mud with him.
People have been calling Sanders a socialist and/or a communist for a long time. I don't think Bernie really gives a crap---fact is he's often credited himself as a democratic socialist. He's not hiding from anything. What Biden could take from Bernie is to be clear about who you are and what you stand for and be upright and out in the open.

>1 margd: Most of the time Trump is an unreflecting narcissist but here I give him credit for being smart, pulling the opposition down to his level and thus inoculating himself against certain criticisms, at least in the eyes of his supporters.
People complain he's too tight with Putin? Well, look at Bernie and the Soviets--the Dems do it too. Something amiss in Ukraine? Well, look at Hunter Biden. Dems do it too.
It shifts the focus from particulars about Trump to a conversation about Democratic hypocrisy.
Never mind the actual particulars, or the pushback against false equivalences. The fact that the conversation is taking place already counts as a win for him.
