So what happens here on Monday?

GDP is full of Sanderistas still pushing their agenda and bashing Clinton. Will they no longer do this? Not even in their own cocoon otherwise known as the Sanders group?

I will not hold my breath. The sentiments are too high there.

So we are talking like this in our group and within the rules. The OP was wondering what's going to happen.

We have been put in our place this whole election. The OP was in this the HRC Group. Not in GDP or GD or Bernie's group.

Go to those groups and see the quality and caliber of the insults towards the Democratic Nominee!

The 5% of "Bernie or Busters/truth Deniers/math illiterates" will never come over to HC. That cult is now Jill Stein, Gary Johnson, or Trump voters. This group makes up the RABID Internet take-over of Facebook, Twitter, reddit, polls, comments etc.. These are the people that give Bernie a bad name, and they are the group that Clinton supporters absolutely detest.. The worst part is, many are not even Americans. They are foreign nationals, posing as Bernie supporters. (I can show an admittance of this).

Anyway, these are the people that get the infighting stirred up and those are the types you Sanders supporters need to ask to be quiet.. and yes, I agree some of them are Republicans posing as "BernieBros" to stir the pot.

As far as NEEDING them in November? I truly think reasonable, moderate Republican women will make up the 5% of "BoB-ers" that we've grown to hate and render them moot, just because Trump is so bad and unliked.

The overall problem is Bernie himself. The longer he goes without conceding, the longer the 5% will hang on. Bernie REALLY needs to drop out and endorse Hillary.. Only then the Bernie or Bust crowd will dissipate and the infighting stops.

I would say most of the frustration of the Secretary Clinton supporters would have to do with the broken alert system that has allowed Sanders cheerleaders to fling poo all over the walls around here without consequences, while Secretary Clinton supporters have been alert stalked and have had numerous posts hidden and thus locked out of threads.

We'll know by Wed or Thur how the new reality around here shakes out.

to Sanders' supporters and yet are accusing them of doing what you are doing.

I rather think that many Hillary supporters need to take a cold, hard look at how they have behaved in the past and whether they think it okay to carry on acting that way in the future.

still hoping for his nominations, making demands, blackmailing, really, and how many are for Clinton?

Granted, I've seen many threads here that I thought should have been on GDP for wider distribution but I think too many of us have bad experience with out posts there either getting attacked, hidden or simply sinking.

And as far as why you should go away, this is a protected group for followers of Hillary Clinton. Up at the top of the group's heading, this appears:

This is a group, not a forum. Groups often serve as safe havens for members who share similar interests and viewpoints. Individuals who post messages contrary to a particular group's stated purpose can be excluded from posting in that group. For detailed information about this group and its purpose, click here.



Since you apparently did not read it, I've posted it here for you.
