Bernie Sanders' Supporters Booed Hillary Clinton's Name And Cynthia Nixon Wasn't Having It [View all]

KUDOS to Ms. Nixon! Bernie supporters REALLY need to take note. These HRC jeers are hurting your campaign.


Bernie Sanders’ Supporters Booed Hillary Clinton’s Name And Cynthia Nixon Wasn’t Having It
The “Sex and the City” star shut the jeers down.

Cynthia Nixon took a stand during Sen. Bernie Sanders’ (I-Vt.) rally in Durham, New Hampshire, on Monday night after the audience booed the mention of 2016 Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton’s name.

“Sex and the City” star Nixon elicited boos from Sanders’ supporters, on the eve of Tuesday’s primary in the Granite State, after acknowledging supporting Clinton in 2016.

“Oh no. Oh no. We are not going to do that here,” Nixon responded to the boos, in stark contrast to how President Donald Trump often encourages his supporters to join him in disparaging his former rival.

“I supported her because I wanted a woman president and I thought she was incredibly qualified,” explained the actor, who made an unsuccessful run for governor of New York in 2018.

“And I thought she was unbeatable,” Nixon added. “But it’s four years later.”



If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

I don't feel booing is cool, but why are people surprised? Cuthbert Allgood Feb 2020 #13
Maybe because most of us understand the concept "cutting off your nose to spite your face" hlthe2b Feb 2020 #14
Are you talking about what Clinton did or some people that booed? Cuthbert Allgood Feb 2020 #15
wow... you refuse to get it. hlthe2b Feb 2020 #16
She did divisive things. Cuthbert Allgood Feb 2020 #18
SHE's NOT RUNNING. Will you EVER get THAT? hlthe2b Feb 2020 #19
So because she isn't running, she can't be doing things that are divisive? Cuthbert Allgood Feb 2020 #20
Since you apparently don't read my posts but instead claim the opposite of what I wrote, i'm done hlthe2b Feb 2020 #21
