as well to make us believe that Hillary is for the people and has our best interests at heart. What a crock of poo! They do it because it has worked! Now they are getting push back because Bernie is letting the cat out of the bag. He has never been one of their team players, but they have usually been able to isolate him
It's ironic to see a Hillary supporter make fun of those ignorant red neck Trump supporting Morans, while at the same time they are being taken advantage of THE SAME EXACT WAY!!!
