The shirts look pink. I say that as a student of art who mixes all my colors from only seven tubes. For that color it takes quinacridone crimson and white. For the nurses it loos loke a shade of cadmium red. Real shit colorblind over there

....going into one of the Nevada caucuses at a downtown Las Vegas hotel.

Lots of Sanders supporters were wearing red t-shirts and carrying red signs.

S/he concludes that Clinton supporters are pretending they represent the nurses' union while caucusing for someone other than BS. And no one else can have an opinion 'cause... feel the bern!!!!!!

And they all ignore the blue Clinton tshirts.

Hilarious!

They're impersonating nurses by wearing shirts of the same* color with the Hillary logo on the left where everybody else puts their friggin' logos.

*That is NOT the same color**. I'm male, middle aged, and therefore don't have the best color sense--but even I can see that...easily.

** Even if it were, since when does any group own "red?" Hospital greens I might object to...but a reddish (kind of) T-shirt?

"Hey, really like that last PURPOSEFULLY CROPPED closeup of the shirt. Whose ethics are questionable?

Seeing as the full picture clearly shows #ImWithHer in nice big letters.

Don't know what other "her" they'd be referring to...hmm.

Anyway, thoroughly juvenile."

Registered Republicans report being called by Sanders volunteers encouraging them to vote in the Democratic caucuses.

Democratic caucuses. Registered Republicans report being called by Sanders volunteers encouraging them to vote in the

Democrats report being given the wrong time for the caucuses, and it's usually given as 5 pm (they start at 11 am).

There are reports of people posing as Clinton volunteers knocking doors at 11 pm to annoy people against her campaign.

Sanders supporters created and shared a misleading video about the caucus process that they will not take offline even though the NV Democratic Party complains this will create disruption at caucus sites. The Sanders campaign deliberately blasted this video via email to his supporters even after being informed by the state party that it was deceptive.

(if someone can explain it to me, great - I'm not sifting through all their bullshit)

Why, at a caucus, where the whole point is to show STRENGTH for your candidate, would you be trying to impersonate the other side's supporters?

How does this make any sense?

I don't get it.
