I don't see why anyone would go negative.
He's the most popular politician on the planet.

but mistakenly replied to the wrong post. (Done that myself before.) I assure you I'm one of Bernie's BIGGEST fans and would NEVER say such a thing.

The real swearing-in happens at midnight and I believe has to be from a NY official. The first time Bill Clinton did the ceremonial swearing-in and the AG did the real one.
