Why are Sanders supporters suddenly pissing their pants over Trump?

[LannyDeVaney]

I realize that the electoral map is probably challenging to them since they can't even figure out a 7-day Democratic electorate prediction, but come on.

Before the primaries even started, it was well known the Republicans have a huge challenge, and that was before they (allegedly) nominated a guy who has alienated every single demographic they would need to even make a dent in the landslide victory by President Obama in 2012.

In the past year (at least) I've often felt that the President was the only adult in the room. Now I'll add that Clinton supporters are the only adults on the forum.

1. It's become one of the final arguments supposedly intended

to make Hillary supporters change our minds. And it's pretty lame.

I think even I could beat Trump.

2. It's a hail Mary

Try to convince people that Sanders is the only thing standing between you and a Trump Presidency.

It's going to get even more desperate before it's all over.

3. They are going to throw the kitchen sink at Hillary.

Part of the strategy is to relentlessly wear Hillary supporters down.

Speculation, innuendo, mythological narratives, unfounded fact-proof repetitive smears, double standards, higher standards, blatant misogyny - these are all political tactics to stop a Hillary Clinton presidency.

We know it's coming. We know it will never stop.

If you don't think this is "a political tactic" just ask Bill Clinton.

Just ask Obama.

And welcome to the Big Leagues, Senator Sanders!

6. Running out of arrows

in the quiver, none of which have connected so far (and a few have rebounded and shot Sanders in the foot).

This isn't a good or effective arrow, it's just one of the few they have left.

The next things probably coming down the pike include the claim that Sanders will miraculously make up all the lost delegates in the more favorable time frame from March 15-April 1. Forgetting that there are far fewer delegates at stake, of course, and the map becomes unfavorable once again in April.
