  2. Most people walked out of that room saying, what an assh***

  3. This is why women should be in charge.

  4. Bernie is the man!!!!๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

  5. loosing emotional control at work๐Ÿ˜‚for a 2nd time hes lost composure, insecure kid showed up with tweet print-outs ๐Ÿคก

  6. Well..on the other hand they had the space ๐Ÿ˜…

  7. You are in the wrong job ๐Ÿคก

  8. Bernie Sanders is the only one in that room who really got some sense ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ

  9. Such thin skin,…..Dems have seen worse threats.

  10. Look next time bring security in there! Put a chair near the door area! And, bring in 1 or 2 security guys. Have them set in during the whole hearing.
    Next time this starts up, have security stand up ready to take some action!
    Bernie heads that hearing, and he has the power to do what he wants. He's the Senate head of all these committees. And, chairs the most powerful committee up there in the Senate.
    Also, what is taking place is Mitch McConnell is failing to do his Job too! McConnell is also supposed to be stepping in taking charge of Mullins telling him, "Look, either chill out, and behave, or I will pull you off that Panel!" But, McConnell is not doing his job at all!

  11. His Clown Car is parked outside. He's not there to represent voters. He's there to put on show for Rich People, MAGA's, and GOP freaks.
    And, the rest of the employer freak shows that vote for the GOP Crazy Train.

  12. My tax dollars at work;

  13. Re-publicans, …… jeeeesh !
    C'mon kid's, now say your sorry so we can get some business done for your constituents, OKAY ?!!

    VOTE ๐Ÿ”ต BLUE EVERYTIME !!

  14. First of all, no one was prepared to fight. It was just a lot of bluster for the sake of foolishness. They're setting a fine example for our children.

  15. He is a fraud, inherited his daddys business

  16. OMG this is the last type of behavior we need in congress. Please behave professionally or go back to fighting, unreal! If I acted like this on the job, I would be fired for such behavior.

  17. Without the corporate dems , Bernie would be prez , and we could have avoided the whole trump show , and we'd be on a different road .

  18. What an embarrassment! Government officials should be highly educated people with high I.Q. not this fooliness.

  19. Typical south jersey Irish house when the Eagles play the Giants

  20. What a child! Us senator?????

  21. Senator can't take someone talking $hit?

  22. For being such a tough guy his skin is awfully thin. Like paper thin.

  23. These sorry good for nothing trumpers gotta go

  24. The teamster provoked him

  25. Teamster shouldnโ€™t be talking trash about him. Easy enough
