One thing about Bernie Sanders supporters, some of them will go above and beyond the call to act like four years olds, throw hissy fits and just make total morons of themselves. By all accounts, Hillary Clinton had a great convention. Unlike Donald Trump’s convention, which was full of doom and gloom, Clinton’s was very upbeat, fun, enlightening and hit Trump on all the things that Trump should be hit for.
The only sour note were Sanders supporters, still moaning like a bunch of juvenile delinquents, trying to disrupt the convention by shouting obscenities, drowning out speakers and pathetically saying they will vote for Trump.
Now these die-hard Sanders morons never did get very far with their protests, and never really got their protest off the ground. As for Bernie, he did the right thing, albeit weeks late. He was gracious and endorsed Hillary, to the utter gall of Sanders dead enders. Gee Bernie backers, is Sanders a traitor now?? Will you ever forgive him for his transgression?? I would like to say it’s time for them to grow up, but they will never grow up. They are incapable of growing up.
Hillary Clinton is now the Democratic nominee for president She earned it. She got more votes than Bernie and won. Bernie Sanders is now relegated to the back lot of losers. Thank God many people saw through the Bernie charade and rejected it. If the dead end Bernie supporters who will not vote for Hillary are going to continue to act like the fools they are, we don’t need you. Hillary will win the election without you sad sacks. Time for a reality check. Time to be counted, or step out of the way. After the convention, you are irrelevant to the election.
What an arrogance … what a heap of horse manure .. so sad .. not my part of Democrats with a social face … let Hillary’s charade go forth! Truly eating its own …
See my recent diary about party apparatniks.
I guesss the word “gracious” isn’t part of your vocabulary.
So sad that some Sanders “bitter ender” delegates mussed up the four-day infomercial with policy issues like war and peace, the Trans-Pacific Partnership, or Israel’s treatment of the Palestinians.
A good old-fashioned policy fight on the floor might have: (1) educated those watching in some of the details behind the issues, (2) worked out some of the differences between the Sanders and Clinton wings of the party, (3) drawn more of an audience wanting to see a real political fight instead of the sham ones we’ve been getting from Congress.
Maybe then the delegates would not have felt superfluous, fulfilling a function that could have been as easily phoned in (except for the clever recitation of state assets).
Maybe then the rest of us would have felt that all that money and bother about security perimeters was well spent.
