Nina Turner does Bernie and his supporters no favors.

I wouldn't believe her if she told me the grass was on fire (and I was standing in it)

have you ever heard of a Pyrrhic Victory?

But I have no fear that Bernie will win the election... the swing states will not vote for a socialist. Not now, not ever... even if the reactionary right winger running against him is Trump.

You can tell a lot about a candidate by the types of people they hire as their top staffers.

David Sirota
Nina Turner
Brianha Joy Gray
Jeff Weaver

The first two are the human embodiment of internet trolls. The second two are pathological liars.

She can't dispel shit. She and the other trolls under Bernie's bridge are the role models for the rest of them. Or maybe I should say troll models.

At one time Nina (Along with the late Stephanie Tubbs-Jones) was a big Hillary Clinton supporter. She was of course outspoken & passionate, but she usually knew when to tone down the rhetoric. But the Nina of today. YIKES, I don't recognize her 😳

Nina really needs to worry about all of the voter-suppression and voter-purging of the Dems ONLY off of the voter rolls right there in Ohio where she lives. Plus, she's pretty dismissive of ruskie interference into our elections, which continues to be validated year after year.

ru$$ia's trying to get tRump re-elected, HELLO NINA That means that they'll do whatever they need to do to Bernie if he's our nominee and of course it won't be pretty, and even if we turn out en mass to support Bernie, the ru$kies will make damn sure they lie to destroy him with their BILLION dollar war chest of lies, and the dirty party of putin's (Formerly the GOP) purging tactics on 'roids, and the corporate media will be running with, and not really checking whatever tRump puts out there.
