(27,835 posts)... is a true sense of unity.
Most of those who supported Bernie are now with HRC - in the same way most of us who supported Hillary would be with Bernie, had he been the nominee.
There are only a handful of people here who think "Bernie's movement" has been treated as a total failure, or are claiming that there has been "sneering" at the fact that he ran at all.
I am tired of hearing about people being "personally unfair to Bernie", or wanting to "humiliate" him because he lost. He DID lose - and referring to that fact is just that - reference to a FACT. It is not a disparagement of the man or his supporters.
It was always known that ONE candidate would be the nominee. It turned out to be HRC, not BS. It's time to move on and support our nominee - which most people are doing.
Telling them that you are "trying to help" by accusing others of being vindictive and vengeful doesn't strike me as being helpful at all.
