Democrats Claim Bernie Sanders Supporters Are Violent

Published on May 17, 2016
After the catastrophe at the Democratic convention in Nevada, establishment Democrats are blaming the whole thing on violent Sanders supporters.

They claim that Sanders supporters were throwing chairs, and link to a video where no chairs are thrown.
Cenk Uygur, host of The Young Turks, breaks it down.

Trace the calls. If it's a Bernie supporter, there should be consequences. But if it's a Hillary supporter/operative...there should be consequences.

In other words, just trace the calls.

when it's in support of the only candidate with integrity!

That's why it will be okay for Bernie to try to win the nomination by making backroom convention deals with superdelegates. It's Bernie's integrity that makes it okay.

Koch bros. style instructors at Universities and Colleges employed by the Socialist Koch brothers, who provide millions to them in return for allowing their socialists Koch bros. instructors to teach at the Universities and colleges. The state of Kansas is a prime example of a Koch run state. Cut business taxes or no taxes bankrupting the state and communities. Folks, this is going on in all Republican controlled states. Arizona/Mich are a prime example, cutting business taxes. not funding education, allowing businesses to continue it huge profit making. The states don't have the funding anymore, by cutting taxes. The GOP is not economically smart.
Folks the Koch brothers are educating your future politicians now at Universities and Colleges, using their billions to push their agendas.
