he totally pissed me off when he endorsed Hillary, I think too many got "berned" and will not run to him if he decides to try & stay relevant.
What else could he do? Throw a temper tantrum and go down in a sanctimonious blaze of glory? All things considered, Hillary is a more palatable candidate than Trump for someone like Sanders, and he doesn't want to burn all his bridges right when he had already done so much to build them.
The old saying that politics makes for strange bedfellows applies here.

IF YOU ARE going to tell me you are not crooked & bought off then I sure as hell don't expect you to support/endorse someone you claimed was crooked & bought off.
the Bernie bros pretty much stayed home.

The Bernie bros. all have their heads up their asses. It's nice to have standards, sure, but they also need to understand that crass pragmatism is oftentimes a necessary part of politics.
Barring violent revolution, ours is not a system that easily allows for change from outside influences. It's this way by design. If you want to exert any changes, you have to do so from within our two parties. Strangely enough, this is something the conservatives have a better understanding of than the liberals.

pragmatism is how things got this bad, settling for the "lesser" evil pitted the worst in GOVT "Clinton" vs the worst society has to offer & karma decided Hillary should feel like Bernie did. except cheeto hitler did not need to cheat to beat her like she cheated to beat Bernie. Bernie bros are liberals so I totally agree with your head up the ass comment :D

You wanted to vote for Bernie, you douche! If it weren't for gun control, you'd be bleeding your heart out and getting punched in the face up in Berkeley with the best of them! :mad:
But think about it. Where were Sanders be if he didn't align himself with Hillary and the Democrats? He'd just be some random guy with crazy hair ranting on a podcast, not exerting any internal influence whatsoever. Taking a stand in this instance would've been a pretty masturbatory move: it would've felt good, but ultimately accomplish nothing other than maybe some light stress relief.

does NOT make me a bernie bro :D
Sanders would have had the support of the bernie bros in spades had he not endorsed the crooked one, he was pretty much abandoned after that endorsement.

you could argue what good is the support if he doesn't run again, but as said he lost it all when he endorsed the crooked one.
