1. I am not surprised, most Bernie supporters realize this is unlike any election. It is an election

for our lives

I am assuming both Robbins and Sarandon both live here in California, so it isn't their actual vote that matters, but rather who they influence.

I suspect neither will change the race, but I do take my hat off to Tim Robbins for the realization what the stakes are

Surandon was surely a jerk but what was it about him?

Hillary won the primary/caucus there when he was at a Bernie rally and he basically laughed at it.

Dear fellow Bernie supporters and other irate independents,

In a time of insanity, I’m voting for Hillary.

Why?

Aside from the despicable racism and sexism of the reality show star?

Aside from his tax evasion and lying and bankruptcies?

Trump denies climate change.

Hillary has said she will honor the Paris Accords and invest in alternative energy.

Trump wants to be a “law and order” president in a time when crime is at all time lows.

Hillary has promised to continue reforming the broken and racist criminal justice system.

Trump has shown an alarming disrespect for women and teenage girls.

Hillary promises to be a president in advocacy of women and children.

We must hold [Hillary Clinton] accountable if elected. But because of her promises, we will have a seat at the table.
