I love when they call us "conspiracy trolls" when they don't like the opinion or facts we present..

It's been quite a long time since I've seen a hillary supporter making a case for her integrity or trustworthiness... or a the least put forward issues to discuss... guess it's tough when you support Mrs. Weather-vane

In fact, this primary has basically set off a Mental Gymnastics Olympics when it comes to defending indefensible positions Hillary has taken, and indefensible policies she has supported.

Look, if you want to back Hillary, fine. But just say, "Okay, I'm not wild about these things, I think these other things are problems, but I still think she is the better candidate because..." Just be honest. It's not that hard.

If it doesn't fit into their world view or narrative, then it is suspicious if not down right blasphemous.

so long and so constantly used to having every rule bent for them, having safe little playpens built for them online, that they simply can't deal with reality any more
