What happened
Days before the 2018 midterms, Sanders held an r/IAmA that backfired when, asked for his favorite book, he plugged his own forthcoming title 'Where We Go From Here.' The self-promotional answer was downvoted to roughly -4,800, becoming the single most-downvoted comment on Reddit that day.
