Why is the attitude towards Bernie, 'stay out of the way if you're not going to join the party',..

136. What I have seen is that they are tearing into the Democratic Party more than Trump

And the Republicans. Apparently the Bernie supporters would rather not have a strong party to fight the Republican abuses - which are directly contrary to what Bernie Sanders has stood for - and would rather keep re-fighting a lost cause.

Bernie Sander will not be president of the United States. He took his chance and he lost. But his followers STILL will not give up the slim chance he might still run again. They STILL criticize the Democratic Party and the last Democratic candidate for president.

At this point I don't believe that Hillary Clinton will be president of the United States. I am ready to move forward, to try to rebuild the party and include everyone who wants to fight against the Republicans and their boy-king Trump. But what I see here from Bernie supporters is continual rehashing of their old grievances.

During the GE Hillary and the Democratic Party took up many of the issues that Bernie Sanders supported. Why do you Bernie supporters still claim that they were "not willing to budge?" That is a LIE - they did incorporate the issues important to Bernie Sanders and his supporters. And guess what - unless they got 100% of their dream ticket that was not good enough. Too many of them took their ball and voted for third party candidates and GAVE the fucking election to Donald Fucking Trump.

Unless Bernie Sanders pushes his followers to JOIN the Democratic Party I see absolutely no reason the party should cater to people who are not party members. If they are members of the party, then they can have a say in what the party stands for. So long as they are outside the party they should not dictate the agenda.
