2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Bernie's Statement On Nevada [View all]RBInMaine
(13,570 posts)61. And there are counter-arguments about how fair the process was. NO EXCUSES!
NO EXCUSES for these sickening THREATS made to the party chair in NV nor heckling and shouting when Barbara Boxer and others spoke, etc.
In Maine, yes, Bernie folks won that caucus and were treated MORE than fairly, and yet they still heckled Barney Frank (a VERY progressive man) and shouted other very rude comments when others tried to speak on issues.
This is SOME Sanders supporters, not all. But it is SHIT behavior right up there with Trump supporters. And it needs to STOP!

This is NO leader. He cannot control the "guerillas" that he has enflamed.
