In Chicago last night, Bernie was very frank about his opinion of Clinton insider and Chicago mayor Rahm Emanuel, whom Hillary Clinton continues to support.
“If the question is do I want or need Rahm Emanuel’s support for president, with all due respect for the mayor, no I don’t,” Sanders said.
Killer Mike, Ben Cohen, and Cornel West joined Bernie at the town hall, as well as Jesus “Chuy” Garcia, who lost a run-off to Emanuel in the mayor’s race.
When asked about Emanuel, Sanders pointed to Garcia, and said, “This was my guy,” a reference to Sanders’s endorsement of Garcia in the mayor’s race.

In a statement earlier this month, Sanders called for the resignation of “any elected official” in Chicago who knew that a recording was improperly withheld in the case. Aides said at the time that Sanders had not reached a conclusion about whether Emanuel acted properly.
Love it!
Bernie also focused on the plight of African-Americans in this country, and how the current government wasn’t helping them, mentioning the economic and criminal justice systems that were working against them.
