And using racial slurs and stuff. He claimed he was a Bernie support. After looking at his twitter profile . The company he worked for was a Data gathering company that was involved in Obama reelection 2012. But that company was then sold to a investor group that is supporting Clinton. So Twitter is a big silly place that should not be taken to heart.

They would NEVER send such people out to disrupt the election process! Especially not here to DU!

...BTW, where do they hire these peeps? Didn't even think to change his work nametag before going out into the twitterverse to pretend to be a BernieBro?

This is personal and face to face.

This isn't a shout into the wind from an (alleged) Sanders supporter to a major public figure who will probably never even know about it on an online platform filled with inflammatory crap.

Someone who talks as must stupid shit as him could care less who is POTUS. He only wants attention. And using Sanders vs Clinton it makes since to pretend you are Sanders supporter and then spout insults at women. You are going to get a much better reaction from Clinton supporters.(Better I mean in context to him wanting people to cause dram back at him.)

It seems his favorite topics are aberrant sexual acts, his own self proclaimed sexual prowess, and the senator...

Every candidate has messed up supporters, as much as you would like to provide some with the cloak of saintliness.

Who cares what some random, trashy person yelled somewhere?

Is this supposed to make some kind of intelligible statement about the election?

Good grief.

By the way, I support Sanders over Clinton, and it has nothing to do with what the worst supporters of either candidate have to say.

I'm actually interested in the best arguments for or against a candidate, not the worst.

Again, I voted for Sanders over Hillary, but if someone wants to troll the interwebs to find a Sanders supporter behaving badly, it's not hard to do.

Doesn't prove anything, except that there are a%$holes everywhere.

that yes, there are assholes on both sides.

Bernie supporters have been accused of assaulting protesters, trying to incite a riot, threatening other DUers irl among many other things and people have flogged those lies constantly. We're sick of it.

Nobody should be calling women bitch as an insult and really saying fuck you to somebody who isn't actively physically or verbally attacking you is out of bounds too.

Of course if one is complaining about sexist words, perhaps they shouldn't use the word queen to insult a woman. It's a little hypocritical to use a gendered term as an insult and complain about somebody else doing it.

This is the convention and she was elected by other Hillary Supporters as representative to this convention. That type of behavior doesn't seem acceptable to me at a convention no matter whomever's campaign it is coming from.

Many Sanders votes appeared in the Clinton pile; civil disobedience ensued; the police were called. Sanders' lawyers had to intervene and then Clinton's lawyers agreed to a recount.

We also freaked out -- both camps -- when they wouldn't let a less popular candidate give a speech. That was actually a little scary. People with kids ran away kind of scary.

And a seizure (I actually made the first 911 call).

Busy day!
