Nina Turner bitterly slams Elizabeth Warren.

[glowing]

173. I think the entire post is attacking a strong, progressive Democratic woman

because she believes that Warren should have stood up for the progressive candidate and rallied under the Progressive banner. I actually believe many of our "good progressives" were entirely too timid or acting politically "expedient" in coming out for the "establishment" candidate.

If anything, Bernie has shown that we really don't need those corporate donors. And if you stand with the people and try to make govt work for all the people, the people will support you. It's been extremely disheartening to see how many "progressive's" didn't trust the American People. Or that they couldn't see just how desperate Americans have become? The Republicans chose Donald Trump, a populist, anti-establishment ass hat that has absolutely no experience in anything political, as their presidential contender. On the "left", a 74 yr old Jewish man who describes his "independent" status as democratic socialist, and is wildly popular with 45 and younger.

It almost happened. (The establishment had the Clinton machine, dirty tricks, election fraud (and I'm not accusing directly Clinton, rather many people and systems in place that disenfranchises the voter along with unverifiable voting machines that didn't match very well with exit polls and the last few primaries refused to run those polls because people were catching on), and ultimately the dirty press influencing the CA race, and now Obama and the rest of the crew coming out to "finish" Sander's and the idea of political revolution off the stage... Couldn't wait another week. Had to press the American people into accepting the status quo, no matter how flawed that candidate is.

Seriously, I keep thinking, what happens if the Republicans continue building their negative narrative against Trump (because the elite cannot control his narrative and he's swinging to the populist left at the moment), they may actually replace him. They won't do it before the Dems have their convention and put Clinton in charge. If that happens, "Not Trump", doesn't have a lot of sway with the Independents that have NO party loyalty and make up 43% of all Americans at this point.
