https://twitter.com/joelbousley/status/731728039655051264This is disgusting. Calls Bernie supporters 'bullies' and other democrats to 'boo themselves out of this election'.
Do they even want to fucking win, or is it just about killing the party?

Just a heads up!
Joe the Revelator
(14,915 posts)entirety of the democratic voters at the convention were chanting sexist slurs and 'bullying'. Thanks for proving it was one outlier!
Agreed!
and shame on this place for being so welcoming to them
I liked how many Berniestans were screaming up and down on Twitter about mounting a primary challenge to Boxer despite the fact that she's retiring...

(110,159 posts)They like to use PUMA as an insult to Clinton supporters, but the reality is, it is the Sanders people that are 2016 PUMAs. Anyway, at least three posts are newbies lecturing why they won't vote in the Democratic party. Except the first comments they make are they are not Democrats, have never voted Democrats, yet are telling Democrats how we keep them in our party. By tearing down our Democratic party and electing a non Democrat to represent all the non Democrats now in our party.
Truly is mind boggling.
These people aren't even the PUMA of 2016. They are merely Republican, Libertarian and baggers that never vote Dem.

(13,340 posts)And then you complain about being called bullies. It seems over and over we get this idea that unless the party has to somehow see that Bernie is right and we need to support him or lose his supporters. Over and over again I see aggressive tactics by Sanders supporters cheered. But how DARE anyone push back!

(1,446 posts)Much the way we have here on DU, which is why Hillary supports have gone after them much more in recent weeks. It's plainly obvious that the most rabid among them will never support anyone but Sanders. (And some will even go as far as voting for Trump just to 'prove' themselves right.)

(14,915 posts)into....then you're probably right.
If you mean ACTUAL liberal progressives then you are doing nothing but kidding yourself about what kind of candidate of party you are supporting right now.

(1,446 posts)Apparently in your world, the only people who vote for Clinton are those who like money and power? You might want to broaden your world view. It is nice to feel you win discussions, but making up facts to win is not really a victory. You are just fooling yourself.
kaleckim
(651 posts)You may not like money and power, but she does. Her top donors, the interests that have made her and her husband insanely rich, they like money and power, and they know when they give her all that money that their money and power will be maintained. It doesn't matter if you mean to support that, your vote does.

(1,947 posts)Bernie supporter said they would vote for Trump here on DU. I haven't seen one. Would be neat to see one they are pretty rare. I know I wouldn't vote for Trump, but that's just me .

Boxer is awesome.
"Do they even want to fucking win."
We did win even with a bunch of bullies trying to subvert the will of the people. Boxers strength and willingness to fight for the people is a big reason the people's voice has been heard. The Sanders campaign is trying to steal the election. They will fail.

(68,582 posts)the women were called filthy names? It is not weak, and it is true. Harry Reid was there...anyone call him a "dick" or a 'Prick'...no just the ladies.

Calling a popular California Sen. Barbara Boxer a b*tch right before their primary won't help @BernieSanders http://bit.ly/1WyStHO #p2
