for most likely not registering properly. Bernie voters got mocked pretty relentlessly for being upset.

Not all Clinton voters acted this way, of course. Still, the vocal few who acted this way were pretty obnoxious. They didn't seem to understand the frustration the Bernie voters were experiencing.

Many of us Bernie voters warned the Clinton voters, we'll see how you like it when it happens in the general.
