side. He's reacting to his potential loss in a very Trump-like manner and some supporters seem to be every bit as vindictive as Trump's.

I really wonder how I ever could have considered him a good candidate. While my support in 2016 has always been for Hillary, I respected, even admired, Sanders until last weekend's final straw in NV.

I will continue to speak of Hillary's strengths to new people I meet, rather than to diss him.

But here, among HRC supporters, I will say exactly what I think from now on. He would be a total disaster in the WH, IMO.

Between the New York Daily News front page and terrible interview he did and his frustration with Hillary's lead have led him to have a meltdown.

He's not had to deal with much negative press before and now we're seeing what he's really like when he's criticized.

to have a temper tantrum, then we had better keep him as far away from the button as possible!

Hillary has been taking WORSE B***S*** for years and has still stayed classy. Therein lies a whole world of difference.

You may dislike Clinton. However, I don't think anyone in Democratic circles would stand for her being considered not qualified for office. That's such a right wing tactic and I hope it bites him in the ass when it comes to democratic voters in New York.

I'd say it's all about the Benjamins, but his marketing firm's agreement with several telecom companies limit his monthly text-take to $50 a month/per phone number (and $200 overall). So, Ben's not in play. (All about Ulysses doesn't have the same ring to it!)

Then today--Joe also proudly said he asked her 'several times' but also said she did not use that word. Of course Andrea has to keep this nasty going but saying something about--she certainly 'suggested' it. Disgusting
