Peter Shumlin, who served as Vermont’s Democratic governor between 2011 and 2017, said that Sanders and his campaign team are not above playing “dirty” and that the independent, self-described democratic socialist senator has no real loyalty to the Democratic Party. In the end, they will play dirty because they think that they pass a purity test that Republicans and most Democrats don’t pass,” Shumlin said in an interview with Politico. “What you’re seeing now is, in the end, even if he considers you a friend, like Elizabeth Warren, Bernie will come first," Shumlin added. Cracks in the détente between Sanders and Warren began to appear before reports broke of Sanders' alleged comments to Warren during a private meeting two years ago. He said that Sanders is trying to “Hillarize” Warren by portraying her as the candidate for the wealthy, referring to Hillary Clinton.
