Do Bernie Supporters Know That Trump is PLAYING Them like the FOX News-types?

"Trump, who became the Republican Party's presidential nominee at the Cleveland convention last week, was also critical of Virginia Sen. Tim Kaine's place as Clinton's running mate.

"Hillary Clinton has bad judgment. She shouldn't have picked this guy," Trump said, according to The Hill. "He's the exact opposite of what all of the Bernie people want.

Can't you see you are doing what he wants?.. And then you go off and vote Stein, thus Trump in November?

He's been courting BernieFolks for awhile, and what we are seeing at the convention resembles what the crazies in the GOP did last week.

I'm embarrassed as a Democrat.. And I'm starting to not welcome those that are NOT, but choose to run in our party while trashing it based on selfishness/self-righteousness/WHITE PRIVILEDGE..

They're basically the same people who have sent their bank info to the Saudi prince who contacted them via (bulk) email, and are waiting to inherit the millions their long-lost uncle left them in his will.

Try to avoid using them as a source. Give the clicks to more reputable sites.

Please don't lump all Bernie supporters with that small group that doesn't know that. Thanks.

The vast majority will simply check the D box come November. In this case it is Hillary but if it had been anyone else they would just check D.

Some are probably clueless to the fact that they are being played and some simply don't care. They have taken the loss personally and want their two pounds of flesh and the damn the consequences.
