Congratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
Democratic Primaries
In reply to the discussion: Krugman's tweet on disliking Sanders. [View all]Demsrule86
(68,586 posts)32. Those who support a candidate who has twitter supporters saying they won't vote for
anyone but him are now outraged that someone who supports a different candidate might feel the same way? Personally, I think we need to vote blue no matter what. But Sander's has hired supporters who didn't do that in 16 and has supporters who on twitter threaten to blow up the 20 election if he is not the nominee...it does not surprise me that this threat of withholding support could hurt every candidate...Sanders is not exempt. God willing it won't happen. We need to get rid of Trump. It is fine to be passionate about your candidate but at the end of the day support the Democratic nominee period. And please can some stop implying that the election will be blown up if their candidate doesn't win?

I have no doubt in my mind that Hillary will fully support the eventual Democratic nominee.

And a lot of Hillary supporters despise Sanders so we can call that Sanders "derangement syndrome",
