Even before Nevada, many people observed that the Senator had let things get out of hand, and that he needed to say something to rope them in.

Edited to add: The people did not get whipped up without Sanders' input; that was the intent all along. Many of us constantly asked how he planned to enact his policies, and hos supporters repeatedly threw out this quote:

"There's a million young people out there who don't want to be in debt for half their life for the crime of going to college. If you want to antagonize those million people and lose your job, Mitch, if you don't want to lose your job, you better start listening to what we have to say." That's the point. That's how change takes place. "

Like it or not, he formed the notion of disruption, fed it, and then ignored it as it became a monster.
