Democratic presidential candidate and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders is feeling the burn on social media after the hashtag #BernieLostMe started trending Wednesday in response to a group of his supporters who became violent at a Nevada political event this weekend.

Shall I continue?

31. CNN Hides The Election Center On The Site Map

Before it was front and center but when Bernie wins its only a hard to find link at the bottom. WV is heralded as a big win for Hillary at .5%??? WTF. And no headline for Bernie winning Oregon by 12%. And the cheeseball pundits call him a cranky old man who wont go away...these people at the networks are disgusting vermin bottom feeders who would sell their soul for a promotion.

[LadyHawkAZ]

28. After looking at their profiles and feeds, you are correct

[QC]

36. Lots of brand new accounts by people with blank profiles?

That's what I'm hearing.

[6000eliot]

39. Buh bye, Berniebots!

[LadyHawkAZ]

48. I checked a few of the profiles quoted

All had a long history of supporting Clinton.

[QC]

49. We've had a good many people here play that game.

Honestly, do people think the Internet gets erased every morning?

[haikugal]

2. More AstroTurf.

[tomm2thumbs]

15. bingo

[tomm2thumbs]

3. lol - late breaking - he's been losing from the minute he got in the race, didn't you hear?

Mook sent a memo, and everyone read it and everything!

[truebluegreen]

4. Still flogging that dead horse?

I think you need a hobby.

[tomm2thumbs]

5. if it was all sewn up, they wouldn't be protesting so much

they'd be out having beers and waiting for July, and there wouldn't be a single HRC event in California because it was a done deal

------

not so much

[truebluegreen]

6. Yup. nt

[tomm2thumbs]

12. the irony is their link goes to a video talking about MORE Clinton speaking fees !!! bwhahahaha

I guess they oughta watch the media they are linking to before they post

[elmac]

7. There was no violence

but there was a hell of a lot of dirty tricks coming from the establishment dems.

[hay rick]

8. #falseflag and #bullshit also trending...nt

[Yallow]

24. How About #ratfuckeryinnevada ??

[RufusTFirefly]

9. Hillary allegedly has more than two million fake Twitter followers

StatusPeople.com, the oldest publicly available Twitter-auditing tool, reports that 44 per cent of the former secretary of state’s followers are ‘good’; 15 per cent are ‘fake’; and 41 per cent are ‘inactive,’ meaning that they never tweet or reply to any tweets

Ad Week: Hillary allegedly has more than two million fake Twitter followers

Hard to top that brand of authenticity. Ironic the today's Brock decreed meme is "In the real world."

[stonecutter357]

10. K&R!

[w4rma]

35. Yes, K&R for Clintonite astroturf getting hijacked. (nt)

[stonecutter357]

59. People who send death threats should be shamed.

[phazed0]

11. All you have to do is point to one video or official report of violence...

and they can't. You blatant liars.

[Gore1FL]

13. #lostlogictoo #FallaciesForever are probably trending as well

[Geronimoe]

14. #caughtwithpantsonfire

Reid, Roberta, Debbie, and Boxer got caught stealing Bernie's delegates.

[jfern]

16. Get lost, David Brock

[riversedge]

54. You have me mistaken with someone else.

[zeemike]

17. Adam J. Smith

Fmr. Student Government President • Member of Hillary for America's Georgia Leadership Council • House of Cards everything • #ImWithHer

Looks like he never had him in the first place.

Astro Turf is so much fun.

[Yallow]

27. What A Fraud

Just like the whole campaign.

[puffy socks]

18. A ton of good ones

by deliberately preying on young people's idealism and naïveté

When his supporters seemed more intent on bringing down the Democrats than Republicans.

when he created a rage-filled, fact-ignoring cult and did all he could to encourage them

when his paranoid Berniebros started telling me I was getting paid for my opinion.

when he lied about issues in Nevada to justify harassment.

when his campaign stopped being for something and just became against someone.

but dissing the Black South whose civil rights struggle he was appropriating sealed it.

:large

[hay rick]

26. Another serving of slime.

Picture of program "proving" Sanders gave speech for Bank of America and other financial institutions. Snopes gave this rumor an unequivocal "false"...http://www.snopes.com/sanders-bank-speeches/

[AntiBank]

46. your computer smells of Brock

[Kall]

19. Better not go to any sporting events.

People boo there. You'd probably think they were riots.

[bahrbearian]

25. They're throwing things at you too.

Peanuts, Crackerjacks, Hot Dogs

[Kall]

30. Well that never happened in Nevada.

So, back to square one.

[bahrbearian]

33. Thats my point .

[MisterP]

40. aaaand here come the pretzels

[Plucketeer]

20. oopsie!

[billhicks76]

21. More Clinton BS

Her shameless promoters and Super PACs are better at it than her good friends the Bush Family but so what...still a disgrace and why she is LOSING A GENERATION OF VOTERS. All you smug Clintonites just watch...so shortsighted and pathetic as the old guard clings to power. People arent buying this crap just like purchasing fake Twitter followers wont do anything for the campaign. It's all smoke and mirrors. Trump just had a meeting with Kissinger...Hillary's friend...nothing changes at the top except shuffling the illusion. Do a google search to see where her most Facebook likes come from. Crying wolf isnt going to work. Trump is beating her in the general polls and if that happens we as loyal democrats to the cause and not the person will be screaming for heads to roll.

[Grassy Knoll]

22. Bookmarking

Thanks Riversedge,

[elleng]

29. Of COURSE it trends on TWITTER!

[Jopin Klobe]

32. That's why these ones are Demos ...

... as in: Demonstration/Floor Model of what you really want ...

... these have been "used" way to much ...

[SunSeeker]

34. K & R

[fbc]

37. LOL Hillary and her supporters are so bad at social media

[MisterP]

38. what violence?

[Roy Rolling]

41. Yeah, that trebuchet thing was terrible

And just as believable as the two news sources cited.

I expected propaganda from the Republicans. To have misguided Clinton democrats beat the GOP to the punch says to me they are just as power-hungry as Republicans, only for different things.

In the national campaign to smear Sanders supporters as thugs, they have made a good case for independents to vote Republican. And, the smugness and condescension is noted. Sanders supporters certainly know their place now.

[Kelvin Mace]

42. So, you are going to keep on with the lie

about Nevada?

[Old Crow]

43. #HillaryClintonRatfuckery

That about sums it up.

[Feeling the Bern]

44. #Iloveoligarchies and #GivememoreDINOs also trending.

[AntiBank]

45. I smell desperation in the air and bridges burning

This is NO WAY to win over Sanders people, and if you do not think Clinton needs them to win, you are delusional.

[billhicks76]

47. Boxer Is Hillary's Brother's Mother In-Law Right? Whats the relation?

[riversedge]

55. it was a short lived marriage and they have been divorced at least 15 years. Grow up

[Fast Walker 52]

58. what do you mean "grow up"?

It's a legitimate connection to point out.

[ucrdem]

50. LOL, right on cue.

Another moving display of idealism.

[NNadir]

51. Well, he never lost me, because I never thought much of him, but I think less of him than ever now.

He's a cranky fool, unenlightened, with very dangerous views on climate change that must not be allowed to prevail, since their unfortunate application on a wide scale is showing up in the physical atmosphere, if not the political atmosphere, as a disaster.

On the political front: it's becoming increasingly clear that his ego is so inflated that he is willing to work to put an insane racist in the White House.

But as odd as it seems, on the environmental front, his rote ideology would be even worse for humanity.

[13Dogs]

52. Manufactured BS

This whole fake outrage over a non incident is pathetic. Just another form of smear cooked up by the DNC and Clinton against Bernie because they can't win fair and square.
And Barbara Boxer is really pathetic.

[liberal N proud]

53. Evything is a conspiracy

Can't win an election, must be fraud.
The party I wasn't part of to begin with is against me.
The party leader who I have been verbally attacking is against me.

[brooklynite]

56. A hashtag is breaking news?

No kittens in a tree last night?

[Fast Walker 52]

57. oooh! Let's report on a bullshit trend on twitter based on bullshit!

now that's what I call reporting!

[Oneironaut]

60. What complete bs

Did Bernie order the violence to happen?
