Jane Sanders Calls Out Joy Reid

Ohhhhhhh boy. I love whenever the left eats their own. It’s quite the spectacle.

Joy Reid is busy being Joy Reid. Aka, an insufferable, holier-than-thou leftist know-it-all. She’s currently trying to connect the explosion of sexual abuse allegations to white men being generally evil.

The "voice of God" in media and politics has been male (and mostly white) for forever. These men are given not just moral authority but the power to shape the national narrative. We're watching that authority crumble as we learn how many have used their power to press for sex. https://t.co/jOPgFEMN0l

Yep. White men. This is a “white male power” thing. This totally has to do with race. Obviously.

She’s also just beginning to realize that sexual abuse problems transcend the media industry. And I’m just wondering if she truly JUST realized that, because wow. Holy mother of disconnected.

What we're also learning is that it's not just a media problem. The same dynamic plays out throughout our society, from the restaurant boss to the White House. The change that's needed here is a system-wide societal reboot.

And then she started longing for the good ol’ days, where Obama united us all. (HAHAHAHAHAHA.)

There are literally no credible national authority figures right now (one could argue that Barack Obama is, but even he can't reach a percentage of the population that has become hardcore ethnonationalist). Certainly the current president isn't one.

Last night at the @NYHistory I was asked whether I could ever foresee there being another Cronkite — someone so universally respected and believed that he could move the nation in one unified direction. I honestly can't.

And even if such a person existed, who could, say, rally 80 percent of the country (factoring in those who are likely unreachable) it would almost certainly have to be a woman, right? Then again misogyny still exists so who knows…

From there, someone suggested that Bernie Sanders is that person. He can unite us all. (HAHAHAHAHAHA.)

@SenSanders Bernie Sanders.

Joy responded:

Um… I get that he has a hardcore following, but his own attitudes toward women, from his weird early writings to his physical dismissal of women in his presence (including his own wife) make that an incredibly dubious prospect.

Notice that she mentioned Bernie’s wife. It’s really hilarious, especially when you consider that she looooooooved Hillary, the WIFE of a serial pervert.

Jane was NOT having that and responded to Joy directly.

I didn't answer your biased reporting about Bernie during the last 2 years @JoyAnnReid. But don't ever use me to demean my husband. I am very happy & very proud to be Bernie's wife. Your perception couldn't be more wrong. Have you ever talked with him? You've never spoken w/me. https://t.co/SZG7uV8cfO

Your move, Joy.
