Reich Urges Unity:"Either is a 1000X Better President than Republicans"- Berniacs Post More Hate

[Haveadream]

Yesterday notable Sander's supporter Robert Reich asked his facebook followers to "tone it down" and to agree that either candidate would be "a thousand times better than any of the Republican candidates". He was motivated to post his message based on the urgent need to unify against the GOP and his FB comment section being filled with anti Hillary rants.

What was the reaction of the Berniacs?? An uninterrupted stream of more Hillary Hate posted to Reich's facebook feed.



Where is the bus?

Reading 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?

1. I think he's right

I'm glad he posted this.

2. Maybe if they keep it up it will help get Trump elected and then they can really have someone

to hate that's worth hating. Bernie can't win and Bernie could never deliver any of the stuff that he is promising. This is Bernie shit is getting pretty dangerous.

3. Bernie would be a fine Secretary of Labor

I think we can all get down with that.

[Lucinda]

5. I dont think he has any leadership skills at all. n/t

[Walk away]

8. He should be Secretary of Fundraising and Rallies.

Those are the only two things he seems to have an aptitude for.

[SharonClark]

18. Sounds perfect to me

[betsuni]

17. Or Secretary of Birds

[Walk away]

20. I hate to shoot your idea down but he would more likely be Secretary of Bird.

There is only one bird!

[betsuni]

21. THE RACE IS NOT OVER!!!!111!!!!

Genuine progressive birds are waiting in the wings for the convention when they will flock and sing songs to Bernie, as the Arc of the Moral Universe is long. THERE WILL BE MORE BIRDS.

[Haveadream]

23. LOL!!

love your posts!



This is for the "birds"!

[Cha]

22. No, we can't get down with that.

[Starry Messenger]

25. Honestly no, at this point.

He's not an organizer clearly, and his leadership skills are zero.

Maybe someone from AFL-CIO, like Tefere Gebre.

[LuvLoogie]

26. I would ask Richard Trumka if he wanted the job.

[Lucinda]

4. He has contributed a whole lot to the climate of hate, so

I am not going to stress over him getting pushback now. Reich and his Bernie peers knew what they were doing and what effect it was having. Sympathy = ZERO.

[Haveadream]

6. Agree!

Hate is a cheap, easy sell in a campaign. I think some surrogates get a charge from all the attention they get just by stirring the anger of a vulnerable populace. Then, when it is too late, they find they have created a monster. Cutting it's head off doesn't seem to help as Reich is now finding out. They will turn on him, too.

7. At least Reich is a grownup

A Bernie Adult, and not a Bernie Bro.

[savalez]

15. Or Bernie baby.

[Historic NY]

9. Her campaign against Obama...

that one comment is just crackers.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

10. So Robert Reich is under the bus now

[BlueMTexpat]

11. I like Reich and his

message. But I "unliked" him from my FB feed because of the negative swarming of anti-Hillary comments from BernieBro types. As soon as these godawful primaries are done, I will "like" him again. He's a good guy and has actually walked the walk.

[Starry Messenger]

13. Exactly the same here.

[Starry Messenger]

12. I'm having a shortage of sympathy.

He didn't do anything to tone them down all these months he's been posting against her.

[Haveadream]

14. Yep

He's getting payback. The worst of it is, he's incited Berniacs almost to the point of no return. Not sure why he wonders why after months of negativity his fans are not singing kumbaya. Now he has to scramble to fix what he broke, for everyone's sake.

[Starry Messenger]

24. I've lost a lot of respect for him.

These people are so convinced that we are the enemy, they never cared that the abuse might turn off allies who care about issues he posts and writes about. I know he noticed the floods of ugly comments on his social media whenever he tossed chum into the water. He can't act shocked now.

[LAS14]

16. k & r

[SharonClark]

19. Glad he said this and glad he got a negative response from his allies

Now he knows what Hillary has been up against.

[Agnosticsherbet]

27. There goes Robert Reich.

He has lots of company. Even Thom Hartmann is there, now.

[Iliyah]

28. I do not trust none of them, period
