Maybe because they’ve made it clear for almost a decade that they don’t do nuance and tend to shun them fancy book-learnin thangs? And that they also nominated Trump?

Because, Clam, they typically tend to demonstrate a complete lack of empathy, compassion, and introspection. You would know this if you followed politics even a bit.

Because the votes count the same whether they’re enthusiastic, somewhat reluctant, very reluctant, made in protest, sarcastic, erroneous, well-informed, poorly-informed, “lesser-of-two-evils” or just plain “close your eyes and hit a button.”

“Just for the votes?”

Whomever gets the most votes wins....so yah? Plus they agree on pretty much everything. And any Trump supporter who switches to Clinton is welcomed too. I don’t care why, I just want her to get the most votes...so yes...the Sanders endorsement matters.

The proposal she put forward was actually very similar to the one she had before, just with a significantly higher cutoff below which families aren’t expected to contribute. But it got press as a Bernie Win (TM), which is important for a subset of voters, and I believe that hammering out that deal has been what shut…

She hasn’t been bending over to appease him, as far as I can tell. I think she’s played it perfectly - not trashing him at all but pivoting cleanly to focus on Trump. She’s behaving as the presumptive nominee and when he finally does endorse her I’m sure she’ll talk about what an amazing contribution his campaign was…

This is a hilariously dumb comment, I think I might be impressed if it was meant as a troll.

Some stores I responded to back in my patrol days would pull this. I doubt loss prevention liked it very much when I showed up because I'd loudly announce to the suspect that just because the police are here, they didn't need to sign anything and shouldn't construe my presence as some sort of implication that they…

It would be horribly tragic if my ability to protect myself or my family were to be taken away, but that’s exactly what Democrats are determined to do by banning semi-automatic handguns.

Vote for the best one. The least shitty one. But still— vote.

There will not be a Welsh vote for independence, they voted to leave the EU and most reject independence.

What exactly should the US learn from this? Who are we exiting from?

Following by a Northern Ireland vote to join Ireland and a Welsh vote for independence.

I can't really laugh at the stupidity of these. I'm British, so we lost the right to call anything else dumb today. Or ever again. Because we are completely fucked.

I’ve already shared this a few times on Jez/the Slot, but this is someone I have mutual friends with, so one of them just reposts and shares everything this dude does. So I get to see gems like this:

There’s always the possibility he’s trying to ease them into the inevitability of Clinton... I still have Bernie friends on FB linking to stories about how ‘Superdelegates are leaving Hillary! Bernie will soon be the nominee!” It’s going to be devastating when he finally endorses her, to the point that they’ll…

We actually do want change. We just know that doesn’t happen by merely shouting into the wind and calling people names.

Yes, he keeps talking about “defeating Donald Trump” and that “we” have to make sure Donald Trump doesn’t become President.

Idiot hates internetisms
