Hillary Clinton
Related: About this forumLooks like some of the BSS are starting to jump ship
In advance of Hillary clinching the nomination. One of the angriest typed out a long goodbye repeating all the same memes and blaming all the straw men that we've come to be accused of being. I know quite a few have used the threat of " I won't vote Democratic if Bernie doesn't win". I used to worry about that until I began to realize that most of those people weren't voting Democratic anyway. I think that any rational Sanders supporter that cares about our country will see the danger that Trump poses. I understand that they might not be excited about voting for Hillary and if they just want to vote against Trump I'm good with that. The main thing now is that we keep Trump out of the White House. I'm proud that Hillary has come out swinging and I'm feeling good about our chances to get the majority in the SCOTUS and rid our country of Citizens United.

(601 posts)DU doesn't need any more of that. It's important for him to feel firsthand what being marginalized is really like.

(27,256 posts)Like: "Conservative Establishment neoliberal DINOs with their neocon warmongering foreign policy and surveillance state, identity politics by Brock puppets smearing true progressives as sexist, racist BernieBros while playing the woman card and bringing black voters to heel with lip service in order to wrangle their votes. DU was once a place where we cared about law and transparency in government, now here's Hillary with her dark off-the-books server -- such behavior is illegal, it is just like Bush. We Bernie supporters have suffered terribly from bullying, lies, insults; we have been maligned and frankly abused. I refuse to put up with this any longer."
I like it when they add a whine about a hidden post and how they were simply responding to some horrible OP calling Bernie supporters crazy and in need of psychiatric care, then you go and look at the OP and all it says is "that's nuts." Wheeeeeeeeeeee!

Fla Dem
(25,688 posts)far left activists. They aren't Democrats and wouldn't vote for Democrats anyway. Some just want to ferment friction in the party and undermine the best candidate for President we've had in a long, long time. That takes nothing away from President Obama, but he did not have the depth and experience that Hillary has and will take into the White House on day one. Pres Obama can take some credit for that, his nomination of her as Sec of State.
OTOH, I know there are many true Dems who are Bernie supporters, but are also Democrats and they will support our nominee.
So in short, I hope the mice jumping ship can swim because I want them to go far, far, away.
