If he still has money, there might be people he can reach on why Trump is not the least bit acceptable.

"Senator Bernie Sanders plans to lay off at least half of his campaign staff Wednesday as his battered presidential bid continues despite Hillary Clinton’s being declared the presumptive Democratic nominee, two people close to the campaign said Tuesday."

18. More hypocrisy from Bernie

he talks about fighting for the little guy, and he attacks corporations who lay people off when their job function is no longer needed. And now he ditches people who put their heart and soul into his campaign as if they were yesterdays news - "Thanks for all your hard work, now GTFO, we have no use for you anymore".


Bernie, America has no use for YOU! Time to go back to Vermont and do your damn job for the people who elected you and stop stroking your ego by thinking you are important in US politics.

GTFH!
