This is the same Shaun King who shit all over Clinton all through the primaries. He never considered the consequences of equating Clinton with evil - or that Trump was far and away the greatest internal threat to the nation in generations. More than that, he thought Clinton was worse than Trump. That Clinton was the bigger liar, with more ethical or moral or criminal lapses than Trump. All demonstrably bogus, but King used his platform at the Daily News to spew his nonsense, and he continues to do so on a daily basis.

Clinton owes the nation nothing at this point. It’s the other way around.

King owes her an apology. So do a lot of people who ended up voting for Trump or sitting on the sidelines because she wasn’t their perfect candidate.

Against my better judgment, I read through King’s article. And it is exactly the sort of whiny, entitled, excuse-filled BS we’ve come to expect from the Bros. He won’t take any responsibility for his actions, he wants people to believe the whole election happened in a vacuum and he wasn’t one of those in the chorus line of fuckheads arguing that Trump was “more progressive” than she or that a Trump presidency “wouldn’t be that bad.” Then he follows up that laughably bad excuse at historical revisionism by following it up by saying that Bernie is “doing something” about Trump…but posting tweets and making statements to the press. You know, the same sort of excuse-making for why Bernie’s “enthusiasm” wasn’t translating into primary votes, that his words are supposed to magically put a halt to Herr Trump and his dark conspiracies.

Hey Shaun, thanks for reminding a lot of us why you bailed on the BLM movement the moment it stopped being all about you.
