I agree that we should be focused elsewhere as Bernie has lost. On the other hand he is taking peoples attention off of Hillary's attacks on Trump, he is sewing seeds of disunity in the party and still affecting Independents opinions. I think when we push back against his most outrageous statements its not necessarily bad. Some of the people pushing back are respected progressives and liberals and even former Bernie supporters. This is all part of the process to eventually have party unity in my humble opinion.
