Nina Turner AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seriously....this call for acknowledging the "pain" of Sanders supporters. Another poster got it right when he said what kind of millenial everyone gets a trophy bullshit is this???!!!!

If this is truly a revolution then it doesn't end because Hillary won the nomination. You keep fighting the fight by nominating progressives and continuing the work Sanders started. You don't blow it up. You continue it. The primary part is OVER!!! He lost!!! And thank you Rachel Maddow for pointing out how the Obama/Clinton race was MUCH closer than was this recent one and everyone was able to come together at the convention.

... assholes.. that's a fact not a condescending assessment.

Also, they're TOTALLY ignoring down tickets and that's where their "revolution" should go...

FUCK these people

and May, to "tone down the rhetoric" have been borne out tonight. You can't whip people into a frenzy and then expect to turn it off like a tap.

Bill endorsed her formally for SoS in 2014. My guess is she wasn't handed a job.

Now she has turned into a bitter hateful woman who said she will not vote for Hillary. She encourages a lot of the outrage from Bernie supporters

All the Sanders supporters I saw in my neighborhood looked and dressed like six-figure techies who make more than my partner and I combined. What is their hardship?

These are adult, political activists, not whiny toddlers who need a sippy cup and a hug.

Hillary loses the GE it will largely be because of his decision to stay in the race too long?

....I don't think it will come to that but I agree that it is taking longer for unity because of that (even though Hillary stayed into the end, was much closer to Obama in popular vote and delegates)
