Fascism is as fascism does.

I find it sad how voters like this vote against policies they pretended to support because of the politics of personality.

This would be the one guy that elected Trump.

It's not going to work out that way, but for all this idiot knows it might. And the fact is these shit stains preferred Trump, which is part of the reason he is about to become President. And then they claim the contentious primary had no impact on Clinton's loss, even as they repeat the idiocy about the DNC "stealing the election" from Bernie.

With an electorate like this, is there any wonder a con man is about to become president?

David Bright said on his Facebook page that he cast his vote for Sanders, instead of Hillary Clinton because his vote would not have helped her win.

The vote was supposed to go to Hillary anyway, so what's working?

"A Democratic Maine elector’s faithless vote for U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders was ruled improper. He has switched his vote to Clinton."
