What reality is that...I read just about every major news site daily...daily. Both lib and Con. Nobody is attacking Bernie yet...just wait. The people that vote...not kids...but voters all run screaming from socialists. The repubs will have super pacts churning out attack adds all day long. It hasn't even begun yet. Obama got plenty of cash from wall street...big donors. These are the people Bernie attacks. He can't be seen getting cash from them. They ain't playing dude.
They have been attacking every day and nothing sticks. You know why? Bernie has a flawless reputation and never has wavered, never has done anything shady, never has played politics, never has been in the pocket of anyone.
He does not hide from calling himself a Democratic Socialist and is proud of it. What has happened? People have flocked to him, away from Hilary and Trump and the rest. If people would realize that George Orwell fought his entire life for Democratic Socialism, Albert Einstein and tons of other highly intelligent people, they will realize they have been misinformed (as I suspect you are) about what Democratic Socialism really is.
Hell, the Pledge of Allegiance was written by a Socialist. Do Republicans realize that?
