Sen. Bernie Sanders cut his head on a glass shower door on Friday morning and received seven stitches, his campaign announced.
But the 2020 candidate was given a “clean bill of health” and will attend all of his previously scheduled campaign events over the next couple days.
Arianna Jones, a Sanders spokeswoman, said “out of precaution, he went to a walk-in clinic” to have the cut checked out.
“The senator has proceeded with all of his scheduled events — joining a group of approximately 20 local clergy for breakfast this morning — and looks forward to joining a roundtable with South Carolinians this afternoon to discuss how we can provide high quality affordable health care for all,” she added.
A giant bandage from falling in the shower is not a good look for “my age doesn’t matter” argument. This guy will probably croak before the election anyway.
It’s really interesting that this OP was created but there was no mention of Bernie being the first presidential candidate in US history to unionize his campaign.
I don’t know, perhaps I am being cynical but the first thing that came to mind when reading this OP was the Harry Reed incident where he ended up sporting a black eye with a shady explanation!
I don’t buy him cutting his head on a shower door.
First, they are made of tempered glass so there would be no jagged edges if it broke, at least not at his height. Nor if it broke would it anything be left that high. More like he would cut his foot.
Has anyone noticed that these politicians always seem to get some kind of head or eye injury? It seems kind of strange. The conspiracy theorist in me wants to say that they are participating in some kind of cult ritual.
