After all, he was one of those "...Even Trump would be preferable to WORST CANDIDATE EVER Clinton!" -types...

In fact, I'm old enough to remember when he said he was going to organize all the Bernie Sanders voters into a third party and kill off so-called "establishment" Dems for good... How is that working out for him?

We need to unite. This bullshit is not helping our situation. I personally give two shits about where these people were during the primaries. If they are working against Trump now they are our allies. Jesus fucking Christ (shaking head).

Unless there is a bit of self-reflection from certain thought leaders on the left about what role they directly or indirectly played in making this nightmare real, then we'll be doomed to repeat the cycle...

Clearly nobody remembered the harsh lessons from the 2000 race...

Just curious-- Bc I don't watch the MSM anymore.

At least Shaun is passing this information along to his followers on Twitter, FB, and The Daily News.

all have had these videos on their channels? I've seen them on YT-- The Thomas Roberts interview from MSNBC is the one that sticks in my mind.

I have a feeling all of those videos of Trump saying he knows Putin will be played on those stations during his impeachment hearings in the near future.

But then, you don't need me to tell you that. Can anyone but those brainwashed by the RW propaganda machine not see through this?

I fear there are too many Rs who will stand by him. Even the ones who know he's stark raving mad, they see opportunities in this travesty. I always knew they were awful. I just never suspected they would stoop to this level. Supporting a treasonous idiot for the chance they might benefit.
