That's funny, he also endorsed her candidacy.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Huh, it's almost as if he understands compromise/tactics/political game theory instead of being a hopeless idealogue. Imagine that.
If Bernie didn’t do that it would have been a guarantee that Trump won. The DNC wasn’t going to run anyone else so that was the only thing he could do. I’m not saying I’d do it myself, personally, but I understand the position he found himself in.
As usual, nuance/context is a thing.
Fuck this old crow. Bernie go away already
Daamn. Also, did you know, Hilary Clinton was using private email server, and sometimes she used it to talk to her official stuff. I bet that's also very important.
But he was too. Not too long ago he was pro Israel because of his sponsors.
No for bernie it's ideological
Duh! That’s why we need a new political side, not left, not right, NEW! Because we need to drain the swamp, enter set terms and get the dinos out! Boomers votes are dwindling and now they are about to see the shift, first with NYC mayor and many other midterms to follow! LET US CHANGE! NO FUCKING KINGS!
“too many billionaires telling her not to speak up for the working class of this country.”
Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, and all the other corporate Democrats are far from billionaires. That was her pressure group.
Pelosi is the wealthiest of the three due to her stock trading husband, just over $100 million, but still a far cry from a billion.
Yeah, thanks for the heads up Captain Obvious, now fuck off, sheepherder.
Does this mean Bernie was also influenced when he backed her or is that different?
Yup. Bernie is the lightning rod meant to embrace, extend and extinguish any leftist movement.
Did you expect him to back Trump???
Not really, but also expectations seem unrelated
Sanders, shut the fuck up and step aside.
He's consistently not stepped aside for a long time because of his principles I implore you to seek something similar--common cussedness will take you further than a comanche's pony
votes to bomb yugoslavia
is pro occupation regime of west palestine
some nice principles lol
I implore you to stop politician worship. He is not above filthy backstabbing. He gave support during the campaign and now he's showering criticism. It's not principles, it's politics. Always has been.
