re: #36 HappyWarrior

And the BBs will bitch the most when Trump shows how different from Clinton he is and Bernie will be just another vote against Trump’s bs whereas if the BBs had put the best interests of everyone before their goddamn fragile egos, Bernie would be likely chairing a very important Senate Committee dedicated to issues he finds important. I’m not really mad at Bernie, a little frustrated by his statement yesterday but I am sure mad at hell at the Bros.

I blame Bernie for a lot of things. I blame him for not exerting any sort of control over his rabid followers, which meant they convinced a lot of people early on that this was going to be a nasty election and they should have no part of it. I blame him for not hanging it up earlier than just before the convention, continuing to insist on “every vote being counted” even when it was numerically impossible for him to win. I blame his witless campaign for actually entertaining out loud staging a floor fight at the convention and getting the hopes up of Bros that he was going to tear the party apart if he didn’t get crowned at the convention. But most of all, I blame him for turning the primaries into a war between the far-left and the party, from suing them over a data breach by his own staff, to accusing the party leadership of “rigging” the primaries, to the trickery his campaign tries to pull in Nevada.

So I am mad and Bernie and probably will remain so for awhile. Because the man I thought was honorable and going to run an honest campaign turned out to be every bit as bitter and mean as anybody on Capital Hill. 20+ years in politics but he was an “outsider.” Fuck that noise.
