I will remember one until the day I die. Susan Sarandon.
Susan Sarandon still can't quite bring herself to support Hillary Clinton.
During a Wednesday appearance on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert, the celebrity most closely associated with an emerging #NeverHillary faction of the Democratic party refused to close the door on a Bernie Sanders victory at the Democratic convention in July. She added that if it came down to Trump and Clinton, the choice would not be easy.
"I'm more afraid of, actually, Hillary Clinton's war record and her hawkishness than I am of building a wall," she said, before quickly adding, "that doesn't mean that I would vote for Trump."
Despite increasingly ominous math, Sarandon suggested a path forward for the democratic socialist still remained if he could gather the support of independents in open primaries, flip superdelegates and ultimately triumph at a brokered convention.
snip.
It's not the first time Sarandon insinuated she just might prefer the presumptive Republican frontrunner over the Democrats' likely eventual choice. During an appearance with MSNBC anchor Chris Hayes in March, Sarandon suggested many were of the opinion that a vote for Trump could "bring the revolution immediately," a tactic Hhttps://mic.com/articles/142112/susan-sarandon-more-afraid-of-hillary-clinton-s-war-record-than-donald-trump-s-wall#.lTgkXIaoCayes likened to the Leninist dictum of "heightening the contradictions."

And voted for Stein, which gave us trump.
Attacking Delores Huerta.
People like this gave us trump. Do NOT let this happen again!

and we're now living with the consequences of other people's votes.
And the consequences of people who don't vote.

Who is the person that has the quality of hawkishness, Susan Sarandon?

How can they live with themselves seeing the present composition of the SCOTUS?

Money removes you from the pain and suffering that their insufferable vote caused so many men women and the caged children.
She has never admitted to being wrong. Never. She doesn't really care, just like Mel.
