Do Republicans want to run against Sanders? You bet! That's why they've been helping him throughout

[riversedge]

Oh--it has happened and is happening--they want Bernie as the candidate because they know they will lose going up against Hillary.

@AdamsFlaFan @MErb1962 @macmcd Here are the SP helping Bernie and meddling in the D primaries

[FarPoint]

1. This is Absolutely Correct!!!!

A stealth army of GOP trolls. Fighting dirty 24/7.

[Kelvin Mace]

2. As opposed to the "Democrats" who are openly saying they can work with "President Trump"?

[FarPoint]

3. Yes....

Make peace with your enemies.

[Kelvin Mace]

6. Collaborating with them is not "making peace"

This is why I will NEVER vote for HRC, posts like this that accept "President Trump".

[FarPoint]

8. So, you won't vote for Hillary...

You appear to learn life's twist and turns the hard way. It happens...

[Kelvin Mace]

10. Under no circumtsances will I vote for

- Someone who consorts with a war criminal and considers them a friend and trusted advisor.

- An unrepentant war monger.

- A continuation of the Bush-Clinton Dynasty

- Someone who continues to support the death penalty after overwhelming evidence of its racist application.

- Someone in the pocket of Wall Street

[baldguy]

14. Trump supporter, then

[riversedge]

16. um....that would be horrible.

[Kelvin Mace]

22. Trump is a war monger who supports the death penalty

and a racist. I have no intention of voting for him. And don't give me any of thaty "if you don't vote for HRC you are voting for Trump" bullshit.

[baldguy]

25. If you don't vote for Clinton, you allow Trump to win & allow the progressive candidate to lose.

48 states have Electoral votes allocated on an all-or-nothing basis. If a candidate doesn't get a positive majority, then they get ZERO Electors, and they go to their opponent

That's reality. If you can't deal with it, that's your problem, not mine. That won't stop me from pointing it out though.

[Kelvin Mace]

27. I do not "allow" anything

I vote my conscience. Just because I refuse to support your very flawed, very compromised candidate, doesn't make me a de facto Trump supporter.

You are supporting a woman who brags of her association with the worst U.S. war criminal in U.S. history, Next to Kissinger, Dick Cheney is Mr. Rogers.

You can pretend that doesn't matter all you want, but that is the reality, and I will keep pointing that out as well.

[baldguy]

28. Be an adult and take responsability for your actions - and inactions.

You'll have the ability to vote against Trump in Nov & do your bit to help him lose. And you'll let that opportunity slip away.

Trump couldn't be happier.

[Kelvin Mace]

30. Be an adult and take responsibily that you will help enable a war criminal

and place him in a position where he can help the US continue its legacy of war crimes. Take responsibility that you are voting in favor of a continuation of the Bush-Clinton Dynasty.

It is sad when your only reason for me to vote for your candidate is to vote against another guy.

[John Poet]

29. Calling Hillary 'the progressive candidate' is a major stretch,

considering the fact that all the major neocon warmongers are backing her over Trump.


As disgusting as Trump is, one thing he ISN'T is a neocon.

[FarPoint]

18. Well...no one from the list of candidates will ever meet such an unrealistic hard-line.

You will not be satisfied...

[Kelvin Mace]

23. Sanders fits the bill

That's why I am voting for him. Also, you are the person advocating "Make peace with your enemies.", and by enemies you apparently mean Trump, not Sanders supporters.

Kind of telling that you defend working with President Trump, but not President Sanders.

[Blanks]

4. When people complain about...

Independents not being able to vote in the primaries, that's what I expect is going on.

Republicans voting for Bernie in the primaries because he's the easy one to beat.

They point out his 'matchup with Trump' numbers - knowing full well that there hasn't been a coordinated attack on him.

His trip to the Vatican really demonstrated what a weak candidate he would be in the general election.

[lagomorph777]

5. Yeah, sure, that makes a lot of sense.

They've bought the Hillaryan meme that she is inevitable, so they are only bothering to fight Hillary.

Anybody who can read a poll knows she's very vulnerable in the GE, especially in comparison with Bernie. Fortunately for the GOP, they are more likely to face Hillary.

[Iliyah]

7. Which are constantly spew here.

Joe S and crew is spouting their so called love for BS (we know it's bull). Trey Gowdy should have recused himself as the chair of the on going hate investigation. Corporate media at it's best buttering up BS knowing that there is a horrid negative campaign hidden in the dark room which is against him.

But alas, HRC GOT THIS.

[SheilaT]

9. Of course they want the candidate who can best beat Donald Trump

to win.

[Armstead]

11. They have assumed Clinton will be the nominee -- That's why they've been going after her

They're just like everyone else in the establishment -- They're locked into the paradigm of the 90's and 00's, and assuming that it will continue.

Sanders is an afterthought to them.

[Dawgs]

12. Do you have proof that they helped Bernie? n/t

[Demsrule86]

32. Did you watch Morning Joe this morning?

Try watching it.

[Dawgs]

33. Why? Can't the OP provide any?

Or, maybe you can provide some since you think it exists?

[KingFlorez]

13. Of course they do

That's been what they have wanted for months now.

[beachbum bob]

15. america will never elect an angry old socialist who is afraid to defend our country

and why the media has layed off of him....they hoping for a miracle and then have their chance to paint sanders for what he is....

[riversedge]

17. Miracles are hard to come by --and relying on unicorns and fairy dust will be a bust...

[TheSarcastinator]

21. America will NEVER elect a Black President!

Same old refrain: NO YOU CAN'T.

[azurnoir]

19. well I give ya this there's most definitely a fake narrative that is trying to be born

[Progressive dog]

20. But the Republicans are doing a 7 dimensional

pretzel bend to keep Bernie from being the nominee. Or something.

[w4rma]

26. Sanders is well respected throughout the entire nation. The more you smear artists smear Sanders,

the worse you smear artists, and your record despised candidate, are despised.

Get a clue and read the polls about what Americans, who don't live in ivory towers, think of Hillary, Trump and Sanders. Sanders is the *only* candidate thought of as honest and good.

[Demsrule86]

31. He has lost a great deal of respect

He has shown himself to be a weak leader...Nevada was a disaster for him. Even his friend Harry Reid says he needs to release a better statement.

[w4rma]

34. No. No he hasn't. Clinton is the candidate losing respect through your false smears.

And everyone who attaches themselves to Clinton also loses respect through your false smears.

[riversedge]

35. Sanders lost lots of respect yesterday.

[w4rma]

36. Clinton lost all of her credibility, yesterday, when she stole Nevada in broad daylight. (nt)
