This Bernie guy selling out and sucking up to Hillary and the DNC is pretty fucking disgusting.
You played with people's emotions and manipulated their minds.
This is worse than anyone else running ... ever.
Backbone? Hardly any. Just a coward not standing up for himself and his followers in light of the DNS emails leakage.
Integrity? Fuck off. Just another power-hungry politician playing politics.
Revolution? Piss off. Just another chess game player manipulating the desperate masses and the gullible youth.
Get out of the public eye already, you phony. What a fraud!
- Uniting the party that united against him? WTF? I call B.S.chukkaphob
- Stand up for what's right and call it like it is; stop being so soft. It's all because he wants back in. Politician to the core!!!chukkaphob
- Agree. Bernie is a sellout. I really tried to watch the DNC tonight but I kept burp throwing up in my mouth a little the longer I watched...robotron3k
- ^Missing the bigger pictureformed
- Realistically he could run third party and lose, or stay within the fold and use his new influence to push the Democrats to the left.yuekit
- Better to lose and have integrity than to do what he's currently doing. The guy is a joke. So over him. But sick of seeing him in the news.chukkaphob
- Hillary conceded to Obama in 2008. Maybe next time.omg
- No next time. Never. Never liked him from the start. Had a feeling from the start that he's not genuine but a cunning manipulative phony.chukkaphob
- If you hated him so much why do you care who he endorses?yuekit
- Safer with Trump or The Lesser Evil with Hill?omg
- I wonder if Wiki will release the next series of emails before or after her Thursday crowning!!?robotron3k
- Sorry, The Lesser Evil with Jill?omg
- I wonder what could possibly be said in part two of those emails that wasn't said already in part one...omg
- @yuekit I never hated him. I care who he endorses because that's telling of his manipulation of the masses. He tricked people. Do you not care about integrity?chukkaphob
- Bernie is just trying to take it for the team. He lost. It's over. What else can he do but try to unite the people? It's an easy decision.since1979
- I dunno, I don't buy for a minute that he is manipulated or tricked people. He could have asked for some kind of personal favor in exchange for endorsing,yuekit
- instead he pushed the Democrats to incorporate his campaign's idea into the party platform.yuekit
- He could have run as an independent. He could have stayed away from endorsing the ones he criticized and ran against!chukkaphob
- The democrats haven't incorporated anything major of his into their platform. Mark my words that none of the little they adopted will ever be implemented.chukkaphob
- for what? he's still a democrat and a senatorsince1979
- The DNC is desperate not for uniting the party but to win over his followers. They're pandering with empty promises (that they'll carry over some of his ideas).chukkaphob
- Pfft. It's all smoke and mirrors. Wool oover people's eyes.chukkaphob
- And he's not uniting; he's polarizing even farther. The ones on the fence, who wanted anti-establishment, are jumping over on Trump's side.chukkaphob
- Bernie and the Democrats were already on the same page on most issues to begin with. It's not like they are on totally opposite sides.yuekit
- The main impediment to getting these things done is not the Democrats but simply the fact that the two parties can't agree on anything.yuekit
- Yes, you are right that Bernie and the DNC were inline with a lot of the ideas and platform bullet points. So here's the other question then:chukkaphob
- Why did he run to begin with? Why did he pretend to be for a "revolution" and "anti-establishment" when he never was and obviously he currently is not.chukkaphob
- If anything, he became a distraction and a polarizing figure in the primaries.chukkaphob
- The "revolution" was about mobilizing young people. I don't think he meant a literal socialist revolution like Chairman Mao or something.yuekit
- My guess would be his goal was what I mentioned above, pushing the party to the left and influencing the future direction.yuekit
- Don't underestimate the value of influencing millions of young voters.yuekit
- He is urging the party to remain united and that's a good thing. He still stands for what he believed in but his campaign is over.monospaced
- Their policies are more realistic than building a $11b border wall or denying gay marriage, if you want to talk about false promisesmonospaced
- You really think trump will follow through with his promise to round up Muslims and water board them until they give up ISIS??????monospaced
- Thats a lot of muslimssince1979
- millions, he says, millions of them hiding among us in the USA, most of which are put there by obama (a muslim too) himself, apparently (according to trump)monospaced
- @mono Nobody is discussing Trump here. Please stay on topic otherwise your comments are distracting and irrelevant.chukkaphob
- @yuekit we can agree to disagree here. However, I do see your side and this has been an interesting exchange/discussion. Thanks for your input.chukkaphob
