    It's funny how appalled some people are about Bernie supporting Hillary.

    Like, bros, do you even watch US elections? This happens every time: a couple candidates left in a primary, they have some debates, they each criticize the other. As soon as one of them is chosen, the loser backs the winner.

    It's so common. Why are people acting so horrified? I'm not saying it's right, but that's the way it is.

    • yep exactly - it's part of the whole system wrong or right... ridiculous fuss, he's a democrat, what did Georges expect?fadein11
    • Georges obviously expects everyone to vote for trump.monospaced
    • You guys not being inconsistent n immoral hypocrites would be nice. too much to ask for?yurimon
    • Yurimon not being a condescending cunt all the time. Too much to ask for?nb
    • I wonder how many times yuri has been smacked in the jaw. Unless he saves his condescending cunt™ persona just for us...inteliboy
    • lol, this fuckass thinks he can judge someone's morality based on internet comments.. .what a fucking retardmonospaced
    • what do you expect though, yuri upholds everything the republican platform has put forward!monospaced
    • Well if you are a consistent hypocrite online, im willing to bet the degrees bleed out into the analogue world. slap some delusion of your political opinion.yurimon
    • Well if you are a consistent condescending cunt online, I'm willing to bet the degrees bleed out into the analogue world. *Note: final sentence untranslatable.*nb
    • I'm not a hypocrite. Just because you feel or believe something doesn't make it real.monospaced
    • At least you're consistent, yuri, and stand by the republican platform and all that it stands for, and always defend trump and call for people to vote for him.monospaced
    • you have any ability to see metaphors?yurimon
    • how do you know I am a hypocrite? you fucking yurine stain.fadein11
    • what metaphor?monospaced
    • when you make political opinions,yurimon

    This dumbed down political system in the US is very annoying.

    Doesn't matter how many different political views people have.
    At the end as a voter you're forced to choose one of the two options. You're either a democrat or a republican otherwise you're nothing. And this is called Democracy.

    Unfortunately Erdogan is pushing Turkey towards this system too. Great for fascists and illusionary democracies.

    • I know people who don't like Hillary but will vote for her and republicans who don't like Trump but probably vote for him.Beeswax
    • Yes, US political parties are an affront to democracy. It should always be noted that the political parties are NOT part of the US democratic system.nb
    • They are independent groups. They are not required to exist. They have taken control of power, and it would be near impossible to dissolve them.nb
    • standard 2 party system no? others can rise if popular no?fadein11
    • There are others but without the $$$ they are pretty much unknowns.monospaced
    • Nothing is stopping other parties from rising. Except for billions of dollars, brand recognition, accusations that vote-splitting is giving away the election.nb
    • Also there are a bunch of actual laws that prevent third parties from getting on the ballot in many districts. ... and who came up with those laws?nb
    • Well those laws also prevent a bunch of morons running in every election... oh Trump, damit.fadein11
    • Also consider things like nationally televised debates for over a year before elections. Non-party candidates get zero coverage. Most don't know they exist.nb
    • in the end the morons are the people.yurimon
    • except for yurimon, right?monospaced
    • I'm pretty sure you excluded yourself, but i was right last 2 elections so far.yurimon
    • prove itmonospaced
    • go back and reread the posts.yurimon
    • oh and i was right about bernie. as you guys downvoted when i told you so.yurimon
    • yurimon - you are always right, we know this - a legend in your own head. keep it up mate. Hope your vacation was nice.fadein11
    • prove it, I don't have time to go back and hunt down the troll shitmonospaced
    • then stfu,yurimon
    • lol, make me? you act like you won some argument here, whne all you did was fail to prove one of your bs claimsmonospaced
    • you can find it like you can find other info you fail to look for because of your intellectual bubble.yurimon
    • I can, but you're the one trying to make the bs claim not me. So unless you can prove it, you're a fucking idiotic liar and troll.monospaced

    man i hope they come up with something more than just emails. trump is getting roasted and exposed badly this week, and i guess the russians must be kinda pissed considering the dems seem to be pretty united behind bernie and hillary. cnn didnt even talk about this email shit yesterday. story lasted 1 day lol.

    • the crimes are important. it should serve as a warning of a media partnership. as assange said about the dangers of non accountability in political power.yurimon
    • i think naming it as an email issue by itself is a verbal white wash. so what.. its just emails, morons would say.yurimon
    • emails about what? doing what every political party has always done, work to get their chosen candidate to win? yeah thats fucking new, and criminal. lmao!CygnusZero4
    • can anyone tell me what crime was broken by trying to cock block bernie? he knows how this works, which is why he hasnt even talked about it. its pointless.CygnusZero4
    • this is not about bernie. is about stopping trump, and it doesnt matter what anyone says or does, thats the goal and will remain so.CygnusZero4

    imagine if a thousand people walked out of the RNC,
    look how inspiring hillary and her ilk's are,

    "Like, bros, do you even watch US elections? This happens every time: a couple candidates left in a primary, they have some debates, they each criticize the other. As soon as one of them is chosen, the loser backs the winner."

    well, it doesn't really work like that bro, two candidate with similar ideas battle each other and because they have the same ideas but still have slight differences the candidate who is the most popular wins,

    do you get it?

    ok, according to the huffington post, these are the difference between bernie and hillary,
    http://www.huffingtonpost.com/br…

    why in a million years would you think people who flock to hillary when the reason they believed in bernie is so diametrically opposed to what hillary stands for,

    By folding up and endorsing hillary, bernie showed that he was another sellout and that he himself doesn't believe in what he spewed for months,

    did we really follow the same election?


    • quiet day at the office again Georges?fadein11
    • This guy's video was likely taking far earlier in the day than the prime-time speaking slots.mg33
    • "This place is empty." > No it's not, I can clearly see people behind him while he says this.mg33
    • "There is nobody left in here." > Not true, there are several thousand people in there if not tens of thousands, which his panning of the crowd clearly reveals.mg33
    • I can't stand hyperbolic statements as literal truth, especially when his own video clearly disputes his claims.mg33
    • Lulz at "diametrically opposed". Take it easy on the hyperboles, guy. Also thanks for that idiotic graphic from Huffpo.nb

    • likely anodized... completely safeimbecile
    • I would buy this.sarahfailin

      suffice to say - not 'completely safe'

    • for the record - i own and used to sell shit like this (well, high-end equivalent), so it's not like I'm talking out of my ass to make myself sound important.detritus

    • so, uh... yeahimbecile
    • you do like to bitch and moan about aluminum grinders though, so do youimbecile

    • Actually - I suppose you don't smoke joints over there, do you Imbecile - all water pipes, etc? In which case you're less wrong. These are evil for joints tho.detritus

    Donald J. Trump said Wednesday that he hoped Russia had hacked Hillary Clinton’s email, essentially encouraging an adversarial foreign power’s cyberspying on a secretary of state’s correspondence.

    “Russia, if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing,” Mr. Trump said, staring directly into the cameras. “I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press.”

    Later in the news conference, when asked if he was really urging a foreign nation to hack into the private email server of Mrs. Clinton, or at least meddle in the nation’s elections, he dismissed the question. “That’s up to the president,” Mr. Trump said, before finally saying “be quiet” to the female questioner. “Let the president talk to them.”

    I can't wait to hear you Trump-lovers defend this gaff. Good grief.
