Trump inspires a lot of people. I'd flee if I were a minority. In fact I'll probably flee anyway.

I don't want to live in Nazi Germany.

Bernie could have beat trump. he's consistently polled to and he inspires. Hillary will continue to run her support into the ground.

The DNC cannot throw the general like they did the primaries. Expect president Trump.

I honestly do. If she wins the Nom I will work like hell to stop a Trump presidency, but I think people underestimate the level of dislike a good number of people have for her, in both parties and Indies.

We've laid out enough facts that we all happen to believe true.

The party is divided. We'll still fight for the party, don't give up.

Bernie needs much bigger leads is all.

Your side kept pointing to polls that proved that Sanders would win over Trump. Well, those same polls showed that Hillary would win over him too.

I guarantee the Democratic Party lost a lot of members this primary. I know many won't care now, but they will when Hillary doesn't win the Independent vote in the GE.

And don't know anyone with anything at stake.

People gotta do what they need to do. You can't force someone to vote. If someone feels that strongly about sending a message, who am I to stop them?

You can wish all you want for a Trump win in November, but I have faith that enough Democrats will put aside any pettiness and anger long enough to do whatever is necessary to keep that circus freak out of the White House.

I am not sure if watching him win will be worth watching these same posters pull the fake racism and sexism calls against a guy that really is to be called on it outside of their little protect bubble. Maybe they will finally stop it. Then again Trump owes Hillary for the Obama in headgear and as Muslim thing.

i predict it will be like Dukakis except It will be Trump who might take 8 states.

We will win women including half of GOP women.
People of color, over 50% of Latinos
union
we may lose white guys.
We will win all the Barack Obama states plus at least 3 southern states( besides Florida) and possibly Montana.

Not a bad days work.
