How to re-elect Trump in one Tweet.

Briahna Joy Gray on Twitter: "On the plus side, I can drop the “Democratic” from my tweets about why Socialism is good. 😉"

Somehow, this saddens me more than it angers me. What the hell are these people thinking?

… She's despicable and the silence of the Berners on this site regarding her, Turner, and the Reade fiasco that both have promoted speaks volumes.

Who they support is more a fashion statement on the way they want others to see them than actually advancing their issues!

Hell, had Bernie won they would have found something wrong with him and switched to the Green Party. They can’t have people think they would ever vote for a mainstream party or candidate!

I also hope Bernie will work to get them solidly and dependably behind Biden and other Democrats.

its has fuckall to do with the US Democratic Party

and fuckall to do with our Nordic style social democracy

and when you remove the democratic part in democratic socialism, you are left with the bloody, revolutionary kind, that seizes the means of production, not by the ballot box, but via the cartridge box

She is a thick one. SMDH

The sane Bernie supporters will vote for Biden and going forward, the Dem party will be better off without the deplorable moles like her.
Let's just hope that no future Dem candidate will be so foolish again to bring these toxic elements into the party.
Is she still employed by BS? If that's the case, why would he allow something like this? Well, to be honest, it would rather surprise me if he spoke out against this.

Bernie’s most fringe followers will sit home on Election Day. This is a very small but very loud group. The Dem party is wise to disassociate with extreme radicals....as the Tea Party hurt republicans this group will hurt Dems...
