I'm stating an analysis of the race. If you take it as "taunting," you have a low bar for taunting.

In any case, I'm pretty much done with the "You're going to need our support" line. If Bernie wins the nomination, you're going to need the support of people your group has been calling dumb, evil, rich, stupid, liars for the better part of five months. That doesn't seem to occur to Sanders supporters, probably because a) they know they're not going to win and b) Hillary supporters aren't having collective temper tantrums about not voting for the Democratic nominee.

So vote for the Democratic nominee or don't. I don't really give a shit. You live with your own decisions. I know I'll do right. Either fucking way.
