Had a run-in with two such people on Twitter, who were ostensibly still "feeling the Bern" by tweeting Trump's talking points and exhorting people to vote for Jill Stein. The hashtags and the TL gave it away of course, but they do seem to be going hog wild with the ridiculousness. I wonder if they fool anyone with their claims.

but they never changed their Bernie props and just substituted "support" for Jill, into their RW talking points They're not terribly good at it, I honestly don't understand how so many were fooled by these folks during the primary, they're not even well concealed Right wingers!

The people who supported Bernie in real life and not merely online, are well aware that Trump and HRC are not equivalent, which leaves all these online entities spouting the same garbage, and exposed for what they were.

An overwhelming majority of the people who showed up to vote for Sanders are some of the best we have. Doesn't matter if they are registered Independent Party or Democratic Party.

I see no link to people claiming to have supported Sanders who are now pushing Trump. There are so few people that confused I simply find it to be insignificant. Has absolutely nothing to do with Sanders or the overall type of person who was supporting him.

earpiece on Donald, and think that accusing Hillary of using one makes it her issue, and not theirs. You know, like the all the other things they're guilty of, and which they accuse her of? The bribery, the pay for play, the bigotry, the racism, etc.

I think he was wearing one, I thought so when he corrected that veteran with the "22", I don't think Donald Trump is up on suicide rates among veterans, he's not a fact based guy. That came out of nowhere and was surprising to a lot of people. It makes sense if he was being fed the info by his "crack" team of people who suck at research and facts.

I am positive that Hillary is very cognizant of TV cameras and would never wear an "earpiece" for nefarious purposes.

Watch the videos. Then Google some ear images. That part of the ear is always shiny when the light hits it a certain way. What did people expect to see in her ear? Hair?

Seriously, this just shows how desperate some people are to find some sort of scandal involving Clinton.
