https://www.facebook.com/RBReich/posts/1201350509877543Reading through many of your comments about today's New York primary, I want to urge that Bernie supporters tone down negative characterizations of Hillary, and Hillary supporters do the same with regard to Bernie. I know both candidates personally. Both are thoughtful and dedicated people who care deeply about this nation. Either of them would be a thousand times better president than any of the Republican candidates. But we will need to join together to ensure one of them becomes president. It's important we not jeopardize that future joint effort through excessive divisiveness now.
What do you think?

This needs to be posted here, not just a link. Especially Facebook.

(42,862 posts)... if not amusing. No ... I take that back ... not amusing ... they're pathetic and ignorant. And that's sad.

You guys are pathetic... and not at all amusing. This especially since Hillary Clinton has very low support from independent voters -- all polls agree. She's going to need all the left leaning Democrats that she can convince to vote for her. Need I remind you that she doesn't win UNLESS she has both the independents and the left leaning Democrats.
So by all means, keep doubling down with your idiocy. That is pretty much the definition of pathetic and sad.
You just don't get it, do you. Apparently Robert Reich does.
Now go away or I will taunt you again.
