PHILADELPHIA — "Look, the division here really is not a problem," former Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle was telling me — right as Green Party candidate Jill Stein marched past him with a group of about 50 Bernie Sanders supporters.

Stein had somehow made her way into the Democratic National Convention and led dozens of angry Sanders delegates in a walkout after Hillary Clinton officially became the nominee early Tuesday evening.

Not all of Sanders's supporters were having it. Ray McKinnon, 35, a Sanders delegate from North Carolina, began yelling at Stein when he saw her, telling her to "get out" and arguing that she had no place within the convention hall.

"For her to come in here, it’s just ridiculous; I can’t stand it," McKinnon told me afterward. "It was the height of disrespect."

But other Sanders delegates were pleased to see Stein. "Bernie has gotten Stockholm syndrome — he’s become a victim to his captors," said delegate David Bright, 68, of Dixon, Maine. "If Clinton can’t hold her own against Stein, that’s her problem."

This was the internal divide that’s been endlessly discussed in Philadelphia: There’s a sharp split between Sanders allies who are ready to follow him into the Democratic Party and a small but vocal minority who view a party led by Clinton as not worth supporting at all.

1. Most Dems are on board with Hillary..

stein is a green, so course she has a problem.

And, who let her in the door without creds?

2. Nooo Jill Stein you are no Bernie Sanders

Not even close. So stop trying to live off of his name.

[Hortensis]

22. Hey, if Stein manages to draw off the most ill-informed

and foolish, that'll be HER problem and our benefit. Many are obviously the kind who drove away sensible people and killed off the Green Party as a viable force just by joining.

In that crowd of angry, frustrated renegades are undoubtedly some worthwhile activists and leaders of tomorrow, as they continue to develop. But some sifting out is definitely in order.

3. Nobody should have been thrilled and she should have been thrown the fuck out...

How did she get in there in the first place?

[BobbyDrake]

8. This. Where was security? How did someone without credentials get in?

Or worse, did one of Sanders delegates give her their credentials for the purpose of this stunt?

[workinclasszero]

13. You got that right!

How the hell did she get in the door in the first place?

[JSup]

4. Wow...

...they're throwing the 'Stockholm Syndrome' meme on Bernie himself now?

Also, if they following Jillenstein they Stein supporters, not Bernie supporters.

[BlueMTexpat]

24. You noticed that too?

They really do not see how they are exactly like Trump supporters.

Bernie has gotten Stockholm syndrome — he’s become a victim to his captors," said delegate David Bright,

15. Can't blame the stupid on "youth" in this case, can we?

[sufrommich]

18. I never doubted that a lot of his "supporters" would

turn on him. They hate Hillary and he was their vessel for that hatred,once he outlived his purpose they trashed him.

[Stellar]

23. They trashed Bernie and Liz Warren as far as I'm concerned they're just kids, whiny little beotches

They're full of it and I hope they get what they deserve.

20. that appears to be a thing with that crowd nt

6. Jill Stein is such an insult to most Bernie supporters

That she would assume that they would automatically support HER - an anti-vaxxer who's never been elected to significant political office, a perennial loser - after supporting a long-term, well-respected senator like Bernie who got many many millions of votes in the primary, is the ultimate in presumption.

[synergie]

16. She's an anti-vaxxer? WTF? How does a physician support such dangerous idiocies?

[auntpurl]

19. Maybe she got her degree from Trump U.

[liberal N proud]

7. Washington Post poll...90 percent of unwavering Sanders supporters plan to vote for Clinton

9. The DNC need to clarify how she was allowed to get accreditation. Bizarre and wrong.

[Demsrule86]

10. Don't let them back in. nt

[NCTraveler]

11. I would love to have a party crashed like our convention yesterday.

Flat out amazing.

Stein just wanted to see what progressive winners look like.

[workinclasszero]

12. That slander was used against PoC on this board in the primaries and now Bernie gets hit with it!

"Bernie has gotten Stockholm syndrome — he’s become a victim to his captors," said delegate David Bright, 68, of Dixon, Maine. "If Clinton can’t hold her own against Stein, that’s her problem."

Looks like the long knifes are out for Bernie from some of his former supporters.

[NurseJackie]

17. Eating their own.

Mmmm ... tasty!

[workinclasszero]

21. What goes around comes around I guess

I'm sad to see Bernie getting the knife in the back from his former fans though.

He's been nothing but great at the convention.
