2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumAre these protesters Pro-Bernie, or anti-Clinton??
The fact that when Bernie tried to talk to the protesters and got booed, what does that say about his supporters? Are they actually Bernie supporters (who presumably would listen to his words and vote Clinton/Kaine), or just opponents of Hillary Clinton? Honestly

(27,787 posts)They wanted a primary challenge of Obama.
They claimed they wanted Warren to run in 2016, until she endorsed Clinton.
They claimed to support Bernie, until he endorsed Clinton.
These folks are not friends of a progressive agenda or democratic electoral success.
They want to control everything now.
And if you will not let them do so, you are the problem.
They'll be supporting Trump I suspect.

(934 posts)They booed him this afternoon.
Sanders sent them a tweet right before the convention started asking them not to demonstrate from the floor.
Their response was to spit in his face.
They're anti-Hillary. Sanders got played.
