[we can do it]

1. Really tired of the divisive BS.

[hlthe2b]

9. yup and Turner is a big part of it.

[Tipperary]

50. No kidding.

This crap will not help us beat rump.

[totodeinhere]

14. Sometimes there can be a fine line between divisiveness and passionate advocacy.

And sometimes sincere people might have trouble determining where that line is.

[Cha]

18. Not in this case.

[Me.]

61. Interesting Choice Of A Word ....Expendable

wouldn't you say?

AlohaHoa...

[Cha]

66. yeah, divisive.

AlohaHoa, Me

[relayerbob]

24. There's no fine line

This is flat-out offensive. Period

[UniteFightBack]

25. And sometime some people lack objectivity. We are the party of black people, have you taken

a look at our elected officials lately?? A lot of them ARE BLACK ...a lot of them are WOMEN. This is just Bullshit and Bernie people who can't call this out SAYS EVERYTHING.

[beastie boy]

30. It appears some sincere people always end up on the divisiveness side of that fine line...

[LenaBaby61]

15. WHY can't she sling this rhetoric ....

At tRump?

We know tRump doesn't give a damn about AA's or about this country continuing on as the USA. She also doesn't care about Russian interference either 🙄

She's uncontrollable at times.

[UniteFightBack]

27. Or at other pukes...the pure white party yet we are the ones. FUCK THIS WOMAN. nt

[beastie boy]

33. Because apparently Trump is not as big an enemy

as the Democrats are.

[OregonBlue]

85. Exactly. She really is painting the Dems as the enemy of Black people.

Since she's Bernie's spokesperson, are we to assume that that is his message too?

[rzemanfl]

71. Bookmarking. n/t

[msongs]

2. what an awful thing for her to say about bernie...

bernie, running as democrat, the awful democratic party that bla bla bla

[sheshe2]

21. Love your one liners.

[still_one]

43. +++

[kabelle]

3. Trump is the last thing in Nina's mind

Her target is the party she pretends to be a part of .

[sheshe2]

80. She is not pretending, she is a green party voter.

Stein asked her to be VP. She declined, yet voted Stein against the Democratic candidate in the GE.

[redstatebluegirl]

4. I am totally sick of her.

[wyldwolf]

5. then switch parties to 'I' with Bernie so a Democrat can take your seat.

[dsc]

8. she doesn't have one

[wyldwolf]

10. ohh, yeah. Out since 2014.

[oldsoftie]

'The latest skirmish kicked off when Nina Turner, a former Ohio state senator and top Sanders surrogate, published an op-ed in The State newspaper arguing Biden “has repeatedly betrayed black voters.”

A response piece from former Richland County councilwoman Bernice Scott called Turner’s claims “flat-out wrong.”

“We already know his character, his heart and his record,” Scott said of Biden. “You can’t try to make us believe something that runs counter to our own experiences with Joe Biden.”

'“With all due respect to Sen. Turner, we have enough people from Ohio weighing in on the South Carolina primary,” said Kimpson, D-Charleston. “She does not have her finger on the pulse of the voters of South Carolina, as reflected in (Biden’s) overwhelming support in the African American community.”

She went, she tried, she failed.

[Cha]

29. She's divisive

[lapucelle]

69. How long have you been studying DU? N/T

[evertonfc]

12. I'm a Democrat and this is our primary

They are Democratic socialists. Trump will devour this group in a General.

[Cha]

59. Let's hope it never gets to that.

[sheshe2]

13. Every Democrat says that every day.

Hmmm.

Welcome to DU.

[George II]

26. Remind me of that slogan...

Make Internet Real Today

[GP6971]

34. Agree!

This one took a wrong turn somewhere.

[OAITW r.2.0]

16. She could make a lot of money by simply saying that she is a BS Republican.

Selling out always pays. Just like telling well crafted lies (I am looking at you Rush Limbaugh).

[OAITW r.2.0]

35. Maybe she could be a Amy Klobaucher supporter in 2024?

Going from Hillary to Bernie is like hypoxia in the ocean. You change political pressure too much and too soon ..... it messes you up.

[OAITW r.2.0]

45. Whatever...you missed my point. nt

[OAITW r.2.0]

53. Thanks for the input. nt

[UniteFightBack]

19. This is BULLSHIT AND A LIE. Black people are part of the fabric of our party....and our elected

politicians reflect that. WE are the party of black people so fucking save your lies Turncoat Turner.

[UniteFightBack]

31. Excuse me I've heard her PLENTY. Her being a liar has nothing to do with her being black. Why

ARE YOU suggesting that. Enough of you.

[UniteFightBack]

41. Her ATTACKS are misdirected...PLAIN AND FUCKING SIMPLE. nt

[ehrnst]

73. Enjoy your stay.

[tulipsandroses]

36. Ms. Turner is not the first to say this

In regards to the Democratic Party taking black voters for granted.

Sen Kamala Harris has made similar statements, so did Sen Booker in regards to Democratic Party taking black voters for granted, so has Sen Warren. I understand that Nina is more animated in the way she expresses herself, but lets be fair. That she is not the only person that has voiced opinions such as this. I suppose she will get blasted simply for being a Bernie surrogate while no one batted an eye when others expressed similar sentiments.


And I say this as not being a fan of Ms. Turner or dedicated to Sen Sanders. I just like to keep things in perspective. So should her comments be more scrutinized than Sen Warren, Sen Harris

[ehrnst]

79. Yes, Harry Belafonte railed against 'identity politics' too, didn't he?

[Kurt V.]

38. as a non tv watcher that's the first time ive seen nina turner. not as i'd imagined.

[Kurt V.]

58. I'm a written word person bc a visual can alter what we're hearing.

I'm not exactly sure what i imagined her being like. Younger maybe?

[NurseJackie]

44. She's disgusting.

Very divisive. WTF is wrong with her?

[Tipperary]

52. Good question.

Smh.

[George II]

68. She hasn't uttered a good word about the Democratic Party in at least five years, maybe longer.

[still_one]

46. I guess this is her way if sanders loses the nomination of encouraging people to vore for Jill Stein

[gollygee]

54. It's a Bernie or Bust move. nt

[still_one]

70. You are darn right, just like SANDERS hiring Jill Stein supporter Briahana Joy Gray, and Hillary

hating David Sirota and Nina Turner

THIS IS THE VERY REASON WHY SANDERS IS A POOR CHOICE FOR THE NOMINATION. HIS ONLY CAMPAIGN IS BASED ON DIVIDING DEMOCRATS, NOT UNITING THEM

[Botany]

47. I'm from Ohio and I got a chance to see Ms. Turner in person and he is bad news.

n/t

[George II]

55. Typo - she.

[Cha]

56. ..

I know you meant to type "she".. and I agree.

[Uncle Joe]

48. Kicked and recommended.

Thanks for the thread TangledUpInBlue.

[Uncle Joe]

65. I learned something new,

I honestly didn't know attempts were made at diminishing the satellites.

[CaptainTruth]

62. Funny, Donald Trump has said those same things.

[Zolorp]

84. Sanders will never be president.

Never.

[still_one]

75. She should have listened to Elizabeth Warren's speech from NH on uniting us, after the election

results came out
