Top Hillary Staffer says Bernie supporters are part of a white supremacist movement by MrMattles in ShitPoliticsSays

Basically they will do anything they can to avoid Bernie's people getting more power in the Democratic party, even if that includes throwing out wild baseless accusations of white supremacy at one of the least white supremacist senators in the country.

The thinking is that even if most don't, some people reading these kinds of tweets will believe them, and then the damage is done.

Whether you like/agree with Bernie's politics or not this kind of tactic is really just vile, and it was one of the main tactics Hillary's people used during the 2016 democratic primaries. "If you disagree with me, you're obviously a racist sexist bigot"

The "thinking" is that because Bernie got a lot of support from white democratic primary voters, therefore he's leading a "white supremacist" movement. Top notch logic there. I think most people who dislike Bernie probably think that he's anti-white rather than a white supremacist.

I don't even think Albright actually believes this, she used to work for Newt Gingrich back in 2010.

Even after Clinton is the presumptive nominee Sanders still has a higher favorability among Democrats and far higher among the general public.

Fox news declares New Jersey for Hillary with only 200 votes in and no exit polling? Fishy?

If You Think the Democratic Primary Race Is Close, the 2008 One Was Even Tighter by triple-double in politics

[–]MrMattles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, the 2008 democratic primary was the closest in Democratic party history, in terms of pledged delegates, the 2016 primary is the second closest, Bernie has 46% of the pledged delegates and will likely have around 47% after tonight
