show no support for Hillary, as long as they dont support Trump.

I hope that doesnt encourage many of them to promote the dont vote idea, given that would elect Trump, which at the end of the day would then be a violation, as I understand the TOS.

and feel that these posts tend to be divisive.

I think most of Sanders' Supporters will, eventually, vote for Clinton (should she win.) Even if they won't say so.
The same is true for Clinton's supporters.

I will not be shamed into voting for candidates I find questionable. Policies put in place by her and her husband have adversely effected my life. Poor choices she made both in the Senate and as SOS caused hardships for friends of mine and potential family members.

supporters. Hey, it's primary season. If you support one candidate, it makes sense to 'prove' that the other cannot beat Trump or that you won't support the other Dem no matter what.
