Showing Original Post only (View all)Hillary Clinton is right about Bernie Sanders [View all]
(CNN)There are few things more unpleasant than relitigating the 2016 Democratic primary. But more than a year later, it hasn't stopped, partly because the race touched on so many hot spots that continue to animate our politics: the way gender shapes how we perceive power, how class struggle collides with racial entitlement, what it even means to be "progressive" or to work outside the system.
And now, there's something new to argue over: Hillary Clinton's forthcoming book, "What Happened."
In it, according to excerpts posted by a group of Clinton supporters, she criticizes her primary opponent, Bernie Sanders, for running to be the Democratic nominee while not actually being a Democrat, and for targeting her in a campaign of character assassination, instead of doing a deep dive into policy.
Predictably, the response from the Sanders left and the Trump right has been about the same: Shut up and go away. This is after the demands that she "take responsibility" and "apologize." (Has any politician in the history of America been ordered to say she's sorry as often as Hillary Clinton?)

A side note
I am so sick and tired of people telling me to shut up about third party voters (this also includes the "other" voters.
We are not the one's that need to shut up we are the one's that need to be screaming from the rooftops!
I'll leave you to chew on this, third way voters are to blame for the Iraq war (who Gave us W?) Third way voters are to blame for DACA being recinded, North Korea. Who gave us the last fucking 10 months of trump? We all know the answers to these questions.
Fuck third way voters, they are the same class as trump supporters. NOW CHEW ON THAT!
P.S. I may not post here much anymore but I do read a lot and when I see shit about giving cover to third way voters, you can bet your ass I'm going to say something.
