In an expletive-laden blog post on Friday, the former deputy executive director of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee ripped Bernie Sanders over comments he made about Hillary Clinton's embrace of President Barack Obama in the Democratic presidential primary.

The former top DCCC official, Brandon English, titled his Medium post "Go F--- Yourself, Bernie."


The post — a response to Sanders' remark in an interview with BET that Clinton is closely associating herself with Obama to win over black voters — made its argument in five bullet points.

"Do you have any idea how belittling it is to reduce Obama to the President that the Blacks like?" English wrote. "3. Aren’t you the one that got shouted down by Black Lives Matter protesters at Netroots Nation, canceled all your meetings in a huff, talked to your advisors and then suddenly realized you needed to start parroting Black Lives Matter catchphrases in all of your speeches?"

English dials the criticism back toward the end of the post.

"So do I actually mean it when I say Go F--- Yourself, Bernie? No. Everyone’s allowed to have a bad day. Everyone makes mistakes when every word is captured on tape. If Bernie wins the nomination, I’ll be knocking on doors for him in Cleveland,' English concludes. "But for today, and for that comment, and for anyone that tries to diminish Obama’s presidency to “He’s popular with black people,” Go F--- Yourself."

English, who also served as the committee's digital director, is the Democratic operative behind the DCCC's apocalyptic-sounding fundraising emails it blasted out throughout the 2014 campaign cycle.

The Sanders campaign did not immediately return a request for comment.
