Its not about Bernie Sanders anymore or never really was..

[Peacetrain]

For a few.. and I mean a few.. because most of Senator Sanders supporters are NEVER EVER going to vote for a goofus like Trump or even sandbag with Jill Stein.. They have a philosophical point of view best voiced by Bernie for them.. but hell no to Trump...


But there are those few.. and I know some personally .. who don't care that Senator Sanders has endorsed Clinton.. do not care if the whole thing blows up.. because they have this vision that they will be able to build a new party reflecting their views only out of the ashes..

Trying to reason with them, will do no good.. it never was about Bernie Sanders..

So we can beat our heads against the walls..but there is nothing to be done for that fractured group who were never about the Senator in the first place..

1. Exactly!

Only 1 of 2 people will be President and she or he will pick 2-3 Supreme court justices. That's what it is about.

[Peacetrain]

4. In the long view ..that is exactly what it is about

2. Agree that it's best to let go

of trying to convince those people who you know deep in your heart will never vote for the Dem

I learned that lesson back in 2000

I decided then, as now, to put my energies toward electing a Dem in more constructive places

[Peacetrain]

5. Yep..

3. It was never about Bernie. It's about the truths he speaks.

6. I think you're right

A lot of people were disillusioned and wanted to be inspired.

10. You contend that it's ALL about the TRUTH Sanders speaks. If so, why aren't

those dead-enders heeding Sander's most essential of verities: that everyone's N°1 priority must be to defeat Trump?

That's an INCONVENIENT TRUTH that the deadhead dead-enders apparently chose to ignore.

I call bullshit on your "TRUTH" contention.

13. I can work to defeat Trump and clean up the DNC at the same time. It's called "multi-tasking."

[Surya Gayatri]

15. And, what about your fellow Sanders people, the deadenders, the NEVER Hillary people?

Will they be working to elect Clinton, voting for her in Nov. and "multi-tasking" behind the scenes to destroy the DNC?

Again, this BULLSHIT stinks to high heaven.

16. I don't know anyone like that. Please see my post from Saturday ...

7. K & R.

Big time.

[JaneyVee]

8. Not voting or voting 3rd party IS a vote for Trump.

9. I have nothing but contempt for those people.

As far as I'm concerned they're as reactionary as the Tea Party. Fuck them. Trump would be an utter catastrophe for this country and anyone who dismisses that is an asshole.

11. For the latter group of inflexibles, they are of the same mind as die hard conservatives

We have a system of government that relies on compromise. As such, these types will always act outside the government.

[tallahasseedem]

12. K&R!

Well stated!

14. For some people, it is all about Hillary hate.

Some of them even started a website where they continue piling on.
Sad and extremely pathetic.
