"Actor and Bernie Sanders supporter Tim Robbins angered a lot of Democrats Monday when, while introducing Senator Bernie Sanders at a rally in Green Bay, Wisconsin, he said that Hillary Clinton‘s win in the South Carolina was insignificant because “winning South Carolina in a Democratic primary is about as significant as winning Guam.”

When the remark drew swift condemnation, Robbins claimed that he was taken out of context when an ABC News tweet featured a twenty second clip from the rally, but Robbins’ remark is arguably much worse the longer you let it run:"

6. Got that? Areas with brown people are now "meaningless bones"

and not significant. It's pretty simple, apparently, and makes perfect sense of you are with the "Bernie, like Jesus" set of cool kids.

7. Nonsense.

The comment was tactless, for sure, but the fact of the matter is that the state will vote Republican in the GE, and that, I think, was what he meant. At any rate, this was not Sander's remark. Do you honestly believe that Sanders is a racist? I don't, but if you have evidence to the contrary, please post it. I am open to persuasion.
