Bernie Sanders may not be the presumptive Democratic nominee, but his hard work is still burning bright.

Tens of thousands of people lit up social media Wednesday morning with #ThankYouBernie, to express their love, thanks and continuing support for the independent senator from Vermont following Tuesday’s primary defeats.

The hashtag was one of Twitter’s top trends as supporters recognized everything from his unprecedented campaign fundraising, lifetime fight for civil rights, to him just plain “giving a damn.”

He has the back of the 99% by helping elect Trump.

8. Only Clinton can help elect Trump now

[Demsrule86]

19. That is untrue. Sander has played a role in helping Trump

and he needs to stop. you guys do not understand real change can not happen if Trump is elected. He will pack the courts and then it is game over. So in your hate and bitterness at losing, you seem to want Trump to win as if that means Bernie was better or something...it would be sad if Bernie went down as a bigger spoiler than Nader...and make no mistake...we had a pretty easy election before he showed up and relentlessly double teamed hil with Trump.

16. If tRump wins its because Clinton is so vastly mistrusted and disliked, and warrants it based

on serving her own ambitions and interests ahead of the public good.

If she loses, sorry, you can't blame Sanders -- it will be squarely on her.

18. If Trump wins it won't matter

and if your bitterness prevents you from helping out, you will have to live with the pain Trump causes ...and no you played a role...anger and bitterness will not help anyone.

5. I know, right! Who cares what those people think!

Fuck those losers and their stupid distaste for oligarchy! Seriously, screw them!

20. Nice job of proving my point completely!

And disproving your apparent idea that you hold some sort of superior moral ground.

Nothing in my post, nor the OP for that matter, would lead a reasonable person to respond as you did.

My point was simply that those twitter posts represent a lot of people who care about this election and this country. My post says not one tiny thing to suggest that Clinton supporter's votes don't matter. Nothing! Your response to the OP, and later to me, was the only thing saying other people's opinions don't matter. Which was what led me to respond to your dismissal of those people.

Also, nothing was said about voting for Trump, nothing about stupid dupes, nothing from me to lead you to your noxious rant. Talk about projection.

Your supposition that you know exactly what sort of terrible people are behind those twitter posts proves you to be no better than the people you assume they are.
