Soon, the very few really rude Hillary posters will start playing nice.....

[Logical]

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Bobbie Jo (a host of the 2016 Postmortem forum).

Maybe even apologize and say they were glad Bernie was in the race.

Don't fall for it!

Re-read some of their old posts to remind you of their real feelings!

[Jitter65]

1. Soon the very rude Sanders' supporters will disappear. nt

[Logical]

5. How? Nt

[moriah]

55. Well, they'll either stop being very rude....

... or GE footing will take place at least by late July.

Given I dealt with the disappointment in 2008, I feel sympathetic. Most of my sympathy is for the people in states who haven't gotten to vote yet but the primary seems statistically over. I wasn't one of them in 2008 -- Arkansas has went with early dates usually, even if we're rarely in play in the GE.

But I know what it's like to be sad after working your heart out for a candidate, and them not win. And what it's like to look at the bigger picture in the General.

At that time, as you know, DU will be flooded by trolls, and we won't be able to tell which are attacking Hillary from the left or the right, concern-trolls, whatever.

I don't want any purges of long-term posters, but if their posts can't be told apart from the GOP trolls... then if we do ever get a jury system that works, the people who can't accept the Nominee and are rude about it won't he here. Like they weren't in 2008. And the website and campaign were better off then.

Of course, you hopefully realize that I am speaking in generalities. I had ankle surgery March 15th, and prefer DU when we're all working for the same goal.

Edit: I made an OP about this that didn't get traction, but it might explain my feelings better....

67. They do what they did in 2009 and 2012.

They'll simply go away until the next GE cycle.

22. What was your former DU name?

[HooptieWagon]

34. BrockBro?

24. ha

[pacalo]

44. Before you get too big for your pants, get a star next to your name.

[trumad]

66. Is that a requirement?

Please let me know.

[Warren DeMontague]

68. Pants?

No, they're optional. You know that.

[trumad]

70. Dude talking Star and all that...

What if I like looking at the ads?

[Warren DeMontague]

72. Ads for pants?

Fuckit, im ditching this star at the next stop light.

[nolawarlock]

47. Well, there is that. nt

[azurnoir]

54. maybe from the microcosm of DU but from the net nope

but trust me we learned our stuff very well here, in fact DU could be a goldmine of sorts

[RandySF]

2. No, I'll say it right now.

Bernie and his scorched earth earth campaign damaged the party and possibly the country if it results in a Trump or Cruz presidency.

[Logical]

3. Lol, creative speculation bullshit! You hill fans hate him exposing her! Nt

[dinkytron]

13. You are so right.

[Live and Learn]

18. +10,000 nt

[grasswire]

33. What will they do with themselves after their purge of us?

Tiddly winks?

Self gratification?

Drink?

Game of darts?

Dungeons and Dragons?

Suck their thumbs?

What?

All two dozen of them, in this great big place with nothing to do.

[PyaarRevolution]

45. You need to get ready.

Phonebank for the downticket Bernie Dems. and learn how to code and understand how Meshnet works. You see, if Hillary OR Trump gets in, they're likely going to try and tank our free, open Internet and bring back the Cable and Terresterial Gatekeepers back up to prevent another Bernie from getting a chance. You need to be prepared.
They're going to try the same thing with Amy Goodman, the Intercept, Wikileaks, etc.

[grasswire]

49. never heard of meshnet nt

[Joe the Revelator]

7. Your candidate got the nomination. Beating Trump and attracting voters is your problem now. nt

[RandySF]

9. We've got this.

[Joe the Revelator]

12. Time will tell.

I don't think you do. If you're losing long time dems like myself, I don't see how you win vs a revved up GOP machine. But, while I will not be voting for your candidate, I will wish you the best of luck.

[sheshe2]

15. + 1000~ nt

[grasswire]

40. bookmarking

will review in November.

[coyote]

58. Good luck!

As a longtime Democrat of 30 years...I won't be voting for her.

[Scootaloo]

62. I would love to see you win the general election with only Hillary's primary voters.

I would be duly impressed.

Maybe you're counting on republicans forgetting when election day is?

[think]

11. David Brock's paid trolls sum up how low team Hillary will go. Talk about scorched earth

[NewImproved Deal]

59. Yep. Brock himself is an Arch-Troll...

Author of this racist smear book, "The Real Anita Hill"...

[rhett o rick]

30. We've been fighting in the democratic process. But you are already looking for an excuse as to

why Clinton will lose the General. We warned you that Sanders could defeat Trump but nope you want to risk it. If you lose, look in the mirror.

[bjo59]

46. Scorched earth campaign? Honestly. Just stating something doesn't make it true.

[oldandhappy]

51. well. I disagree, smile.

I blame MSM for Trump. Senator Sanders had nothing to do with the collection of 17 candidates on the GOP side and nothing to do with the elimination of 14 of them. Sanders really had nothing to do with the emergence of clinton as the front runner on the other side. That was long planned with the DNC. So I guess I need you to try again. I don't get it.

[Scootaloo]

61. What an interesting world you live in.

You ought to write a book. Or a trilogy! Or a trilogy that becomes quintet, then becomes a septology that might be an octology after innumerable delays and a successful HBO series.

[egalitegirl]

63. Hillary is a warmonger

A Hillary presidency will help the Bush family who are he business partners and also part of the Military Industrial Complex.

[Broward]

69. Thanks to voters like yourself most Americans now lose either way come November.

[jpmonk91]

4. here is my take on things

http://www.democraticunderground.com/1280185920

[Walk away]

6. Keep Dreaming!!!

[rhett o rick]

32. We will keep fighting The Clinton Family and the Oligarchy until we get the Big Money out of

our government. Your rudeness doesn't even deserve an alert.

[azurnoir]

39. Thank you

[ViseGrip]

8. I won't be here for them to play nice to.....

I don't like the way the democratic party was so undemocratic. I don't like the way they are not standing up to the election fraud and vote caging.
I don't like the debate schedule, after large states could not change their party. I don't like the lies Hillary told and the lies she sent her daughter out to tell about Bernie.
I don't like any of it.

Therefore, I will not be here clicking, to debate the general race. Why? Because every time you 'click', the owners of this board get paid. So when we fight and the thread is on fire? They make MORE money.

So I won't contribute to that. I don't like the way Berner's were treated here at DU. The stacked juries, etc. So after the convention, I truly won't be here. There are many ways to skin a cat.

[The Second Stone]

23. All made up bullshit. If you felt that way you would have

left a long time ago. You know where the door is.

[Skink]

16. I already have them on ignore

How will I know

[sheshe2]

26. You have them all on ignore?

Doesn't that create an echo chamber for you? Hearing only what you want to hear?

Me, I have three on ignore.

[Skink]

31. What

Did you say something

[sheshe2]

35. Bwahahahahahahahaha.

Night night Skink.

[Live and Learn]

17. Already started. nt

[actslikeacarrot]

19. Soon, Clinton will go hard right...

...on many issues, including guns just in time for the GE. Some supporters will be confused, most won't as they are ok with it.

[Broward]

71. Yeah, most are just for whatever she's for on a given day. Very servile.

[Lazy Daisy]

25. Ive already put them on ignore

They had their say, now they own it.

[Kalidurga]

29. Yep

We tried for months giving them the facts and we got the finger. That kind of thing goes both ways.

[sheshe2]

38. No, sorry.

You did not give us facts, you gave us hides when WE gave YOU FACTS.

[The Second Stone]

27. Most of Sanders supporters are fine, but the ones that called Clinton corrupt and

a criminal I will never be nice to. To hell with them. If you called Clinton corrupt and a criminal, I would rather have lunch with a Republican, thank you.

I predict that the posters who called Clinton corrupt and criminal will not start playing nice, will not sing kumbayay, and will go the full Nader. They preferred to vote for Nader in 2000, they loved having GWB instead of Al Gore and having something to whine about. Their political descendants are alive and well.

I also predict that Sen. Sanders is not among them. I predict that he will endorse Hillary Clinton no later than the convention. I make this prediction based on his statements that he would support the nominee and based on how he has run the vast majority of the campaign.

As for being mean to the bros, I won't apologize or back down or change. They are a nasty bunch and if they want a fight with this Clinton supporter, they can count on one!

[rhett o rick]

36. Clinton represents the corrupt culture that we are fighting. The corrupt culture of Big Money

in our government. Those that believe she can accept tens of millions from the Rich and Powerful and still champion for the poor are delusional.

[Juicy_Bellows]

50. All day this!

Delusional or just don't care as long as blue wins? I don't understand it, now more than ever.

[The Second Stone]

53. you aren't fighting anything, you are indulging yourself

and will continue to do so. You don't even know the meaning of the word corruption if you think Hillary Clinton is corrupt. And that's too bad, because there are a lot of corrupt judges, police and politicians on the take out there.

[HooptieWagon]

42. She's the only candidate of any party,...

...currently the subject of an FBI criminal investigation. Rational people don't consider that a good thing.

[The Second Stone]

52. rational people understand that the FBI is investigating the email

and that she is not the "subject" of the investigation. You've had that distinction pointed out to your before, but still ignore it.

[HooptieWagon]

56. The investigation will go where the evidence leads it.

But she gave the orders, the server was in her basement, she was the prime sender/receiver of classifiable emails, and she's the one who has repeatedly stalled, lied, and obstructed. I'm quite sure she's the main subject. Wishful thinking won't change that.

[Stuckinthebush]

28. Eh. Give us a couple of days

The sanders supporters have been so nasty that we need a bit to gloat. We will nice soon

[Logical]

41. You proved my point! Thanks! Nt

[Stuckinthebush]

43. You are so welcome sweetie!

Bless your heart!

Good luck to you! Hugs!

[azurnoir]

37. no way will I or anyone fall for that

[betsuni]

48. And right here in this thread:

Calling Hillary supporters rude, Bernie' supporters are the victims ("Don't fall for it!&quot
Accusing someone of being a sock.
Accusation of a "purge."
"David Brock's paid trolls."
Oligarchy, Big Money.
Hillary is a liar/corrupt/going to go hard right

Always the same. I'm sure soon someone will point out a Hillary supporter's transparency page and sneer about Camp Weathervane. And that's "playing nice"?

[madokie]

57. Trouble is

I won't see them

I found out long ago what that little box with the red X is all about and use it judicially.

fuck it, I don't have time nor patience for reading nonsense, over the top hyperbole

[Scootaloo]

60. Already noted

[treestar]

64. I'll never understand

Why people put this spite over voting for your own interests.

[NCTraveler]

65. We are generally very nice people.

Happy Hump Day!!!!
