Sanders Over the Edge (NYT)

-Dylan Stump

Analysis:

This much talked about and controversial Paul Krugman piece in the Times delves into the notion of the Sanders campaign as naive and overly idealistic about how to implement seemingly radical policy goals. He criticizes Sanders and lacking depth and nuance when pressed for deeper policy analysis, referencing his highly scrutinized Daily News interview in this regard. Towards the end, he is highly critical of Sanders' tone, embracing the "Bernie Bro" meme of Sanders' supporters as mostly young white men with misogynistic leanings.
