In reply to the discussion: Hillary: "fused and fired by fever-ridden ambition and sense of pure entitlement. IT IS HER TURN" [View all]Beacool
(30,500 posts)I'm beyond angry at the tone of the arguments used here against Hillary. This is supposed to be a Democratic site and every RW talking point and sexist crap has been thrown at her. There's post after post from RW leaning sites and from wacko conspiracy theorists from both the Left and the Right. I'm disgusted with GDP, and have been so for many months.
I called Sanders a socialist because that is how he describes himself. A "democratic socialist" who chose to run as a Democrat. I don't hate Sanders like a lot of folks seem to hate Hillary. I just don't want him to be the nominee and think that Hillary would be a more effective president, but the vitriol against her on this board is really over the top and not constructive or even objective.
I hope that GDP represents only a minority of Sanders' supporters and that we come together to defeat the real enemy: Trump and the Republicans. Putting aside political differences, I can't think of a less qualified person to have become the nominee of a major political party in modern times. The man would be a disaster to the nation.
