And here come the assholes.

Ahead of showdown over who will lead California Democrats, ‘Berniecrats’ have a message: ‘We don’t have to behave’

“Tomorrow, when we’re in that hall…they’re going to be telling you how bad Trump is and how we should all be okay with them because Trump’s so bad,” said RoseAnn DeMoro, executive director of the California Nurses Assn./National Nurses United, and a prominent Sanders backer. “Tomorrow, you guys are going to want to boo. There’s a lot of good people to boo.”

Nina Turner, a former state senator from Ohio who has frequently warmed up crowds at Sanders rallies, said, “The way we show the corporate [Democrats] that we are not playing games with them, starting right here in California, is to make sure that we get Kimberly Ellis elected as chair!”

Turner went on to skewer Democrats for remaining hyper-focused on the controversy surrounding the investigation into White House ties with Russia and not on solving problems with criminal justice reform and income inequality.

Adding that she believed that there is no longer any difference between the nation’s two major parties, Turner urged delegates to turn out to protest and vote in the party’s elections.

They have learned nothing.
