Those protesters at Joe's rally? They knocked Symone Sanders down.

This is really scary. That woman is incredible, but I’m alarmed for her. You can see her after saying “Who hit me in my damn head?” This is not okay.

And now that that are getting desperate that their savior is getting rejected by actual Democrats, they are getting more despicable in their tactics and also use violence. They aren't interested in their cause, otherwise they wouldn't hurt their only allies against science denying Repubs. They are a perfect example for why BS always fails and achieved so little.
