Bernie does better against Trump. Period. End of story.

If the Hillary fans were serious about not wanting Trump - if that was their main concern - they would get behind the best candidate against Trump. The reality is that they don't care. They will support Hillary no matter what, in any way they can. They use Trump as a boogey-man to scare/threaten people into voting for their pick. It's like how terrorists use the threat of bombs to scare people into doing something, or the government uses the threat of terrorism to scare people. So in essence they're using Trump as a threat. This is a form of terrorism.

I don't buy it. And I won't be bullied by these people. The power of both parties needs to be broken or we'll just be played as pawns to willingly submit our asses, cheeks pulled wide apart, to the oligarchs and the rich. Fuck it. Blow it wide open.
