Hillary Clinton

(12,448 posts)I wish I could offer you an explanation, but the only one I can think of is that some Sanders supporters don't allow anything but praise, praise, praise for their hero. Anything less than virtual worship is condemned, and is followed by spewing hatred and vitrol about Hillary.
I support Hillary Clinton, but I don't think she is a saint sent from heaven. (I don't even believe in heaven!) She has some flaws, like everyone else on the planet, including (gasp!) Bernie Sanders. That last would get me immediately banned from the Sanders group!
It's 2008 all over again, but even worse than I remember, possibly because we have fewer candidates to focus on.
Try not to let it worry you; talking to these people is a waste of time. I think, though (I hope!) most Sanders supporters are reasonable people who will vote for the Democratic nominee.
