How Clinton Supporters See Sanders Supporters:Starry-eyed, holier than thou dreamers, who have no idea how real politics works in the real world, who arrogantly dismiss those who disagree with them as morally compromised, sellouts to corporate america, wolves in sheep clothing, out to destroy the progressive movement from within, while doing the bidding of their true masters.
How Sanders Supporters see Clinton Supporters.
Defeatists, cowardly sell-outs, wolves in sheep clothing, corporate whores pretending to be progressives. Like the house negroes of old, they suck up to the master while getting nothing but crumbs from his table, while arrogantly dismissing all who disagree and demand more as starry-eyed holier than thou dreamers, who have no idea how real world politics work in the real world.

(50,414 posts)4. We do "see how politics work in the real world" and disgusted by it.
Which is why we want to see Sanders as president.

(6,409 posts)5. They're both right
As with all stereotypes, there is a grain of truth behind each of these. We tend to focus on the extremes.
