Without question Bernie is a strong candidate, I’ve never said otherwise. But I and many others don’t support him. The question isn’t whether you disagree with us, that is entirely understandable. The question is do you think that makes us idiots? Sell outs? Republicans? That Tomato Face fella?

Come on, the entire subtext of that article is that because the WFP didn’t endorse Bernie, now a once trusted ally are a bunch of corrupt sell outs. The outraged entitlement reminds me of something. Hmmm.

Agree, I don’t think that either. I think that even a majority of Bernie supporters debate the issues in good faith.

Again, the majority of Bernie supporters are just that, supporters. But you can’t deny there’s not a significant subset of his support that is simply toxic.

I find it curious how “I disagree” has automatically become “Tomato Face.” For the longest time I actually thought Tomato Face was an actual person using multiple accounts. Only recently did I come the understand it’s just a second rate bullying tactic used to silence ideas you disagree with.

The entire WFP thing was about the best example of the Striesand Effect you’ll ever find.

Why? Just look at the reaction after the WFP endorsed Warren. That toxic culture is alive and well.

Welcome to the movement Democratic centrists, we have been here all along and now we expect to be heard.

Next time just say, “I disagree, I don’t aee the irony at all.”

Not concerned with him, but I’ve noticed more and more the effort to equate Warren with Hillary. Most likely both from increasingly desperate Sanders supporters and from the GOP who somehow are trying to figure out a way to run against Hillary again in 2020.

I like Bernie, I really do. And yes he has plenty of supporters both men and women who are just great, most of them even. That’s the tragedy really of Bernie Bros. They’ve too often hijacked Bernie’s candidacy for their own toxuc ends. For them it’s not just about being right, but making sure everyone else knows how

Again, let’s compare their similarities in policy, background, even temperment and personality. I see it, they’re both women! Nailed it bro! Wish we could high five right now.

Nice! I appreciate the ability to make utter inanity seem profound.

Because they are both women?

Thank you for proving my point bro.

This comment epitomizes why people are turned off so much by Bernie supporters and why as a result it’s dooming Bernie himself. Bernie Bros are more concerned about saying “I told you so.” than the actual issues. You want a pat on the back?

Would they stay home versus Trump? I’m not seeing that. I think a lot of “moderate” Democrats are reluctant to support Sanders and even Warren because their overriding concern is to beat Trump, not policy, and they feel Sanders/Warren are too far left. Whether it’s true or not is beside the point, but either way I

I am enjoying the irony of Bernie supporters basically saying “it’s his turn” because of his success in the previous election.

People forget the WFP tried to start a Draft Warren movement before they ultimately endorsed Sanders in 2016. So this really isn’t a shocker.

Scan the top shelf. Do they carry Hennessy? If they do, maybe or maybe not. If they don’t, it’s for a very specific reason.
