Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) isn't letting Hillary Clinton's blunt assessment of his personality hurt his feelings.
Clinton recently said that Sanders, who ran against her in the 2016 Democratic presidential primary, has been in Congress "for years" but had just "one senator support him. Nobody likes him. Nobody wants to work with him. He got nothing done. He's a career politician. He did not work until he was like, 41, and then he got elected. It was all just baloney, and I just feel so bad that people got sucked into it."
