It's becoming painfully clear that's the case on the Hillary side. Sanders supporters care about the issues and not about whether he was or wasn't a Democrat (D) before this election (read as Dr. McCoy yelling, "You are not of the body," for Day of the Archons). Since we are not faith-based, we are capable of getting mad at "our own" when they screw us over.
