i swear half the young people i meet tell me they campaigned for bernie. their souls got sucked out a little when realizing their own party was fighting him all along. like step aside for hillary then see her fail to trump. that hurt. anyway i miss the enthusiasm for politics they brought. bernie is only alone within his own party...

I watched it happen to him twice in elections I was passionate about, I'm not a Republican but I am also no longer a Democrat.

Why would Dems support a lifetime Dem over a lifetime Independent, it's a mystery!

Hell, voters made the same choice, the popularity of Bernie was only within specific circles unfortunately.

I voted for Bernie twice (primaries), but goddamn are Berniebros some of the most entitled and ignorant shits.

You enable Nazis by choosing to always vote for the party that refuses to hold Nazis accountable or create a society that won't create Nazis.
