2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumI am okay with Hillary lying about Bernie.
There are two reasons -
1) It lets us see how he deals with crazy people. Realistically, the Republicans will be acting the same way in a few months, so I want to see how Bernie handles it. He spent years in the House of Representatives dealing with ego maniacs pushing their own agenda, so I am confident he will be okay.
And
2) The Truth always comes out, so Hillary is just reinforcing her reputation as untrustworthy. She wants to sling mud? She's going to get her hands dirty. Smears and lies discredit HER because nowadays none of us are waiting for the media to investigate - we Google it.
The bottom line is that Hillary doesn't know how to campaign using modern social media. If she would have stuck to her vision of what she wanted for this country, she may have stood a chance, but instead, she made it about her not us and that just isn't going to work.
So, let it fly, Hillary. Scorch the Earth, and Feel the BERN!!!

All the Berners got left is trashing and bashing.

I am using a common vernacular shorthand: "crazy".
I am sorry if it offends you, but I think it accurately describes the people who exhibit such behavior.

But I really don't care.
Calling them as I see it from now on.

(10,559 posts)I responded to you because I wanted to clarify I wasn't trying to push personal buttons or hit triggers if this was something you have negative associations with - I have multiple relatives who are officially in the "crazy spectrum" due to diagnosed mental conditions.
Continue to call them as you see them. I don't have to agree, but I want you to know you are heard and valued.

Three Hillary surrogates campaigning looks more like this
Check the polls, they are saying she is untrustworthy... If that bothers you, well I don't know what you can do other than stick your head in the sand..

(35,015 posts)Hillary is a liar, that's a proven fact. If you can't see it then you're either just as bad as her, or you're so terrified of Republicans you overlook it.

(3,017 posts)It's all those crazy foreigners. What is Hillary's default reaction? "We came, we saw, he died!" comes to mind.
