Earlier Thursday, Clinton gave a speech that laid out her own foreign policy agenda and criticized presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump for his "thin skin" and "dangerously incoherent" ideas.
"Americans aren't just electing a president in November, we're choosing our next commander-in-chief, a person we count on to answer questions of war and peace, life and death," Clinton said. "The person the Republicans have nominated for president cannot do the job."
On that point, Sanders agreed.
However, he added, Clinton wasn't much better.

(5,198 posts)that manufactured consent is preferable to the trust and respect of the people should indicate what to expect. Ruthlessness is a ok when aimed at 'those people' except when the game changes and you are in the crosshairs.
The world will know it if we don't vote in a Democratic Socialist that we cannot pretend to be a democracy. This election has been an embarrassment.
