(2,542 posts)Another way that "some Sanders supporters" ended up sounding just like Republicans, accusing Clinton and her supporters of actions and words that really applied more to themselves than Clinton and her supporters.
My biggest and best example?
"Some Sanders supporters" were the ones who expected the coronation, for him. They expected the Democratic Party to bow down to their candidate. They expected him to waltz to the nomination and were the ones outraged that anyone dare question him. They were the ones who couldn't handle scrutiny and tough expectations of being able to present serious policy proposals instead of grand rhetoric. They were the ones who couldn't handle the results of Democratic primary elections not going their way.
It's disgusting to me that threads like these are allowed to stand. HRC supporters are being told to "stand down" even as "some Sanders supporters" get away with continuing to fight the primary and bash our nominee.
