So Clinton supporters didn't have the right to be hurt by what Bernie said about Hillary?

Hillary and Bernie came together after the primary so why would we continue to hold a grudge against Bernie?

Bernie supporters are easily led by the nose. All you have to say to a Bernie voter is, "Vote Democrat."

Bernie was one of the biggest influences for the downfall of the Clintons. He brought so much disgust out against her during the primaries that there was no way his supporters would end up backing her.

And all he did was tell the Truth.

Thanks Bernie - you were one of the best Trump surrogates of the election.

I remember how the Trumpsters said he was WEAK because of how he handled one BLM protestor at an event that was not his. I thought he handled it well because who wants to try and shout down someone at an event that you did not organize? But the Trumpies rode that wave for a very long time.

And the Bernie voters certainly weren't shy, fading flowers. They gave better than they got with regard to nastiness.

I was SO EXCITED that our party had two great candidates to choose from and Bernie voters quickly educated me of that philosophy.

Bernie is out there campaigning for Hillary.

So what's your point?
There is no point. OP just wants to post another "I hate Hillary' thread. Nothing more.

Guess what, you sorry excuse for humanity: America is sick and tired of you and we're gonna show it in a couple of days. Big time!
See you Wednesday morning! Or perhaps early Tuesday night . . . .

IF you think Trump is such a sweet fella, I suggest you take a long look at some of his rantings.

Absolutely. It's long been known that Conservatives tend to see in others traits they possess themselves. There is no better primer on that theory than their candidate.

My college student son was Bernie all the way. But he went with Hillary because it's easy to see that he could not tolerate anything that Donald Trump stands for.

They didn't show up for Bernie at the voting booth and then want to blame Clinton supporter but guess what we actually voted for our preferred candidate. They have no one else to blame but themselves. Perhaps the Sanders supporters will learn their lesson to not just tweet, snapchat and attend feel good rallies for preferred candidate and actually VOTE.
They didn't. Nothing more. College students have not ever been that reliable at actually showing up at the polls. Hillary voters didn't show up at big rallies - they just quietly showed up at the polls.

Maybe it is sour grapes on trumpist's part to make a big deal out of it, since not a whole lot of sanders folks switched to trump.
A. It wasn't particularly "cheerfully"
B. Most didn't recognize at the time how unfairly and ruthlessly the DNC worked against Sanders.

At this point, anyone with liberal leanings at all don't have a choice--despite the perfidy of the DNC, Trump is not a reasonable choice for liberal ideology.

Depends on what a liberal means to you.

For me it used to represent the little guys. The workers and the people left behind. Now it's about open borders, globalism, and being offended by everything under the sun. Liberalism is depressing and toxic nowadays. So maybe the evolution of views will lean us back to conservatism... which can evolve from it's religious roots to something inclusive and patriotic. Nothing is static. We need better options than two polar opposites.

Bernie supporters should be outraged with Hillary's corrupt and rigged campaign.
Wasserman Schultz a sniper for Hillary, Donna Brazile rigging debates with handing out debate questions to Hillary "From time to time I get questions in advance" What a corrupt campaign for Hillary!

Trump is a bigot because he wants existing immigration laws enforced and is against TPP and wants a country called the United States instead of a globalist Rockefeller/Brzezinski administrative precinct.

1. Yes. This thread is just a distraction.

2. Bernie did lose fair a square in the primary.

3. But he got 43% percent of the vote in the primaries. No the winning number but not shabby.

4. That 43% was cross generational. Please do continue the mythos that only college student voted for Bernie.
