some of these Bernie bros in a different life would be trump stans.

but contrary to what some have said, it's a small percentage of Bernie supporters.

Every time Reince Priebus tells RNC staffers that he is about to go talk some sense into Trump, one of the staffers probably puts on "Don't Save Her"

-He don't wanna be saved Reince

Fool me one time, shame on you
Fool me twice, can't put the blame on you
Fool me three times, **** the peace signs
Load the chopper, let it Reince on you

Yeah let's see this video

There is a video of "Hillary Lying", it has been posted here a couple times. It is mostly reaches and out of context sound bites made to look like she is lying.

There are a few flip flops and a couple lies in it though

Doesn't come close to the Trump video

Should be a commercial.

Just saw this gem on FB from a Bernie Bro:

That bernie bro only makes me respekt hillary more. Bein able to keep your kool, while gettin what you want, is some g *** ****. While trump akts like a child throwing a tantrum when **** dont go his way, makin him look ***** made in the process, hillary keeps her kool n maneuvers the way seasoned vets do. Most trump supporters i kno **** with him kuz he says wild **** n tries to seem gangsta, but the truth is he puts up a front, n when challenged, he ends up lookin foolish in his defense. Hillary aint got that problem. From what ive seen, she remains komposed n keeps a kick back n peep **** demeanor. Id much rather have a leader that knows the game, n kan not only play it, but play it well, than to have a leader that loses his kool once the first sign of adversity rears its head. I see it as a primitive example of sonny n michael corleone. Theres a reason sonny's hot headed attitude got him hit; thats kuz he didnt think things thru n jumped the gun on ****. Meanwhile, michael was kold n kalculated with his approach. He soaked up game from his pops n advisors, while rekognizinf errors in others. I see a similar dynamik in trump n hillary. Trump komes as a loud mouth ***** that had everything handed to him n takes his ball when **** dont go his way. Hillary seems like the girl that sat back n realized the game was made for men, but made it a point to learn that **** better than those she played against. In my eyes, n in the eyes of some of yall, i presume, while trump felt entitled, hillary knew wasnt **** promised. N its that that makes me gravitate towards her n shun him.

Why do these salty liberals (that's what they are) think that Trump's gonna be "kept in check" if he's in the White House?

Republicans are too shook to cross him now as the GOP nominee, do you really they'll go against Trump if he's President?  

 

 

[Brownstone]

It falls in line with the narrative of Trump being an outsider therefore less tainted, therefore less risky, therefore more honest, therefore less qualified, therefore more qualified. I mean seriously people are confused.

That Bernie Bro is probably white.

Actually, he's Filipino.

Dude who posted it.

Literally has been spewing the anti-Clinton rhetoric for damn near a year...now I either wanna de-friend him or just put him in his place.

You gotta do what you gotta do. This election cycle has made a lot of people I know come outright to the public with their lack of understanding anything political/government.

 

[harlemtothebronx]

I'll never understand why people can't speak for themselves. Just grab an image with a paragraph someone else formulated wth their own thoughts and beliefs and plaster it on social media for everyone to see.

I'm willing to bet that if you engaged him in discussion, he wouldn't have much to say. The dude didn't even write the initial post out in his own words, so how much could he possibly stand behind them.

It's like we're becoming less and less capable of expressing ourselves. I see it constantly in this thread too where people post grand opinions and are incapable of defending their stance with more than a link they googled or an anecdote.

Unless he did write it, in which case my point is null.

This should be obvious, and get significantly more play in general.

Hillary is the weakest candidate in such a long time, and trump is the best they could put out.

 

[moe fab]

How is that? Im kurious to kno your reasons as to why you believe that, kuz posting that link doesnt give me any reason to believe you.

I luv how trump supporters like to talk bout how he speaks his mind n tells it how it is ...but when he gets some criticism or says stupid **** they say he didn't mean what he was saying or he was talking about something else, dummies don't even know what they really supporting

 

[dragicon]

Whenever I come into this thread, I find it entertaining... Then after read a few more posts, I start getting depressed.

Truth. I've distanced myself from a lot of people in the past year because of this presidential race. Don't really have any intention of trying to maintain those relationships, either.

Even if I don't agree with you, I can't mess with you if you don't display any semblance of logic and/or critical thinking skills. And I've seen a TON of that this year. Coincidentally, most of that has come from Trump crowd. Although I've heard a ton of ridiculousness from a few Hillary fans at my job, too. Dudes literally have zero clue about anything political, so they just parrot what they heard on CNN.

They want it both ways.
