Olive Branch or Schadenfreude? (Hillary group) [View all]

When Hillary clinches the nomination, what will your attitude be toward the Bernie supporters?

I think there's arguments for each. On the one hand, an olive branch would make us look good, and might actually do something to seal the divide going into the general. On the other hand, aside from being so cathartic, schadenfreude would be both just and useful. It would drive away those who can't keep their stuff together following the post-clinch jubilee (the period of a few days when Bernie supporters can vent as much as they want before buckling down and supporting Hillary).

I can't decide. What do you think?
