60. That percentage is incorrect. It's a myth.

since Clinton and Sanders voted the same way something like 98% of the time.
That percentage is incorrect. It's a myth.

She's a Black woman with opinions to the left of AOC, and so many Democrats are just dying to trash her.
So comparing Joe Biden to a BOWL OF SHIT is okay with you? That's "just an opinion to the left of AOC"??

and I can guarandamntee it that she didn't vote for Trump either time.
Not voting for the Democrat is mathematically the same as voting for Trump. If the vote did not DIRECTLY count toward Biden (or Hillary) then Trump benefitted because of it.

but when I see rabid threads about Turner, it feels like the Clinton/Sanders wars never ended,
How funny is that? In reality it's the exact opposite. The reason Nina-T hates Democrats and the Democratic party (and the reason she supported Jill Fucking Stein; and the reason she has her own "People's Party&quot is because she's still in a snippy snit about the fact that Bernie wasn't chosen to be the party's nominee. Every indication is that she believes that it was "stolen" from him and that he was entitled to the nomination. THAT is why she isn't on-board with Biden/Harris. THAT is why she would not support Biden/Harris. THAT is why she compared him to a BOWL OF SHIT (even after he was the nominee). THAT is why she indicated a preference for "full-on evil" Trump. THAT is why she characterized Biden's choice of Harris as simply "checking a box".

So, no, you're wrong... it's not our response to her that perpetuates the "Clinton/Sanders war" ... instead it's what SHE is doing, and what SHE is saying and how SHE is behaving. Not us. Loyal Democrats should not be expected to remain silent while SHE perpetuates these myths and lies, and while SHE creates division, resentment and distrust.

All I'm saying is that Nina-T does not deserve the free pass that you're willing to give her. She's not benign.
