MSNBC reported that supporters of one candidate booed Biden's VA win

and both Maddow and Brian William were taken aback to hear that they'd be so ungracious, especially so early in the primaries.

I'd hope that someone they respect would step up and let them know that kind of behavior is very much not OK

At a watch party for another candidate? That doesn't seem unusual at all. I went to a watch party with Obama supporters in 2008 and we booed whenever Hillary won a state and cheered when Obama won a state.

And not an isolated incident. More of trend.
It's sad, really. It seems they're self-destructing.
I hope they can put down their intolerance
and unite with us all... under any campaign banner.
