In reply to the discussion: Nina Turner weighing offer to join Green Party ticket as vice presidential candidate [View all]BobbyDrake
(2,542 posts)85. Oppose? By Turner's account, he was the one to tell her she wouldn't be speaking.
I have no complaints about Bernie Sanders' actions in regards to this topic. He's been completely above-board lately.
If Nina Turner wants to leave our party, that's her call. After hearing her hateful and uninformed cable news appearances during the primary, I'm almost sympathetic to the Greens. She's their problem now.

OP
I laugh because Nina Turner is an incompetent clown, and she reminds us with every appearance.

No, I was specific about my criticism of Nina Turner being based on her, not some label.

Her values, Bernie's values not clownish. Clinton adopted several. Otherwise I'd be voting Green.

This discussion is clownish, because you're arguing against stuff I didn't say.

If she does this her career in the Democratic Party is over and rightfully so.

I didn't hear West say that. West was on Bill Mahr's show last Friday and made an ass of himself.

Just last week? Turner's been in full-on moonbat lunatic mode for a while now. No tether to reality

Now she gets to bring change from the fringes instead of into the mainstream of the party.

If she thinks she is going to further "the movement" by going green....

+1, I wonder if she'll now start saying that Bernie rigged the system against her.

Please stop saying her name or the name of Jill Stein. Neither person has any relevance.

Ignoring a hernia long enough can earn you a bout of sepsis and a colostomy bag.
