May 2019

Your behavior is more problematic than mine. I don't use the term "Hillbot" out of respect and to not lower myself to the level of people who use terms like "Bernie Bro" (Just like "Obama Boys" 2008) and people booed Bernie Sanders for coming out for Hillary Clinton at his own rally. Don't hold everyone responsible I'm just a poor nobody, I couldn't afford a ticket to the convention. I don't hold Clinton responsible for her fans behavior and she has some very awful ones.

When Chelsea Clinton criticized Omar she was being disingenuous and her comment ratio was negative. Whether the Bernie supporter was right or wrong she didn't deserve all the hate that followed which you seem to not have a problem with. Only Bernie Supporters are guilty got it.

Chelsea Clinton has a lot more power & privilege than a lower income Muslim college student.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
