In reply to the discussion: Sanders just might be the most popular politician in America [View all]R B Garr
(18,102 posts)Talk about the "usual suspects", all you've done here is hurl hostile insults when you didn't even read the article. And insulting people with your version of distorted reality. Sick of it!
The article states Sanders is popular because he faded into the background and because he has not been attacked. But this is a clear example of how much abuse is heaped on people just sticking to reality...WINK.
Read the article! Quote:
"It is also true that Clinton's campaign never really launched a sustained line of attack on Sanders. And given he's not the Democratic nominee, there's been no organized offensive focused on his avowed socialism; in fact, Trump has tended to refer to him positively, praising his message on trade and saying that Sanders had been cheated during the primary process. Sanders's socialism has been part of the coverage, certainly, but not a major theme of the campaign."
So. Again. Hillary has been attacked nonstop for over a year by her Primary opponent and now, predictably, her GE opponent. The attackers have never been accountable for proving any of their bullshit, but they smear her anyway. They attack to lower her poll numbers. Remember? You need to remember that simple fact before you start calling Hillary supporters nasty names.
