88. I love Bernie and voted for him in the primary.

But would someone please tell some of his FB followers that even he doesn't believe he will be the nominee? Some on Facebook seem to live in the non-reality-based community in which Bernie wins at the convention and are calling anyone who says "that's not likely to happen" a "sellout." I've met some sellouts in my day, and in my humble opinion, I am not one of them.

It's time to boot and rally against crazy ass Trump.
