One even said today that they need to defeat Trump by any means necessary. Funny but they used that justification for their behavior against Sen Sanders. I think they fool themselves by rationalizing that each case where they ignore DEmocratic Principles, is justified because it's for righteousness.

As for mental gymnastics, they're required to keep up with the constant barrage of silly conspiracy theories coughed up on DU.

Aren't you still supporting someone who refuses to concede even though he fell so many hundreds of delegates behind his chances of nomination became nil in March?

This morning, Sanders indicates his "campaign" of attacks on HRC will continue even after she reaches 2,383 delegates on June 7th. Are you going to rationalize that zig-zag and continue to stand behind your ultimate sore loser?
