23. We should have learned that from 2016

Many so-called Bernie supporters were often Russian trolls, who were trying to divide Democrats and often succeeded.

I remember as far back as 2004, there were some obnoxious Kucinich supporters, but they just disappeared once Kerry became the nominee. It is something we should expect at DU during primary season.

Meanwhile, I certainly wouldn't hold such posts against Harris. Doesn't sound like anything that she or her supporters would approve of.

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