In reply to the discussion: WaPo: "Bernie Sanders just gave an amazingly condescending interview about Hillary Clinton" [View all]elias7
(3,994 posts)over and over about endorsement and quitting the primary and she does not seem to understand his oft-repeated answer. he is taking his progressive agenda to the convention to fight for this in the platform, as he has said all along. There was no disrespect towards Clinton that I could see, other than if one were to consider holding her feet to the progressive fire until she is formally nominated and a platform is established.
I see Bernie as completely straightforward and not baffling, surreal or condescending. Imo, Hillary would see this in such a light either. I think understanding how some people see this as insulting and some do not is a key point to understanding the difference in mindset of this primary season's Bernie supporters and Hillary supporters.
