Know what?? I'm actually starting to feel sorry for HRC supporters.

Most of them are not in the 1%.

Some day they will get old (unless climate change takes them) and they will need health care in their old age.

They will need Social Security because their 401(k) won't be enough to retire on.

Many of their jobs will be shipped overseas or replaced by h-1b visaholders.

And they will look back and ask themselves, "WTF happened?"

I feel sorry for them because DLC/Third way policies will bite them in the arse.

(especially in their old age).

They are going to need Social Security.

They are going to need jobs.

And there won't be any money for social programs because of all the wars.

They will still look back and ask themselves, "WTF happened?"

Most of them think they're doing what's best!

But at times I want to violently shake some sense into them, fortunately I have SOME self control.
Hate and Violence will get us nowhere!

And they'll blame everyone but themselves. I won't feel sorry for them one bit.

rallies, and how many real people actually contribute to her campaign, I do not think she has that many supporters any more.

You presume that they're clueless about their own actions and goals. They're not. They know what they're doing.

But their team color is blue. Such a friendlier color than red.
