2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumCan people here please stop saying "Sanders Supporters" and use "SOME Sanders supporters"
There are many different opinions amongst them. Most of them are telling us they will vote for Clinton and the Dem ticket. There's a few attention seekers who may or may not be actual Sanders supporters who are seeking to anger and divide. The best thing to do is to not to pay an enormous amount of attention to them. Remember they are not representative of ALL Sanders supporters. Sanders supporters are not in some big cult.

(4,640 posts)My oldest son supported Senator Sanders in the primary. After the New York primary, he switched his support to HRC. Before anything else, he'll vote BLUE.

(4,311 posts)They need this to be a horse race or else everyone tunes out for the next 3 months. They need there to be excitement, divisiveness, embarrassing incidents to get ratings. In truth, Hillary is going to walk into the Oval Office.

When I heard the statement from the Trump campaign re: Kaine it sounded exactly like what some purported "Sanders Supporters" are saying. Total manipulation by the Republicans. Don't fall for it.

(11,243 posts)Using broad-brush pronouncements to characterize ALL of any group is tedious. I don't like it when it is done to me and I try to avoid doing that to others.
And I agree. Don't feed the trolls who seek to divide us.
