(38,390 posts)If Sanders heard the country, maybe he will or maybe not. He can speak for himself, and no amount of sore winner fear here is going to a) change his staff's behavior or b) "foresee" a replay of 2016. It's not going to happen.
My "intentions to lure" are purely your imagination, Sir. My ignorance was in thinking that Bernie and his staff's campaign rhetoric would be seen for what it is around here. If anyone could present something I haven't seen, I've got no problem with learning something new about Bernie. I'm not the least ignorant of Bernie's ads or his staff. But now the fear-of-a-divided-party talk has gone on to the point of emotional habit. Apparently, the country doesn't need lessons on unity from the outraged here.
His supporters are who I want coming into the General to vote. That was my original point. We should already be talking up how to get them to understand long term effort, give them time to see that progress can't come with just one man and staff, and we could, if we wanted to, agree that his staffers can be dealt with later. We saw Biden look presidential. So we can start pushing what reality that can mean for Bernie supporters.
Squib. Yeah, I saw that word in the New Yorker recently. Guess it's making the rounds.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
