Did Bernie (sell out)? I think he did that, at least when, he decided to join the democrat party to run for president (and immediately drop out after losing the nomination) rather than run as an independent or socialist. What is your opinion on Bernie Sanders endorsing Clinton? Politicians being politicians. Scumbags one and all. Reminds me of during the ACA passing when detractors would go into private meetings or personal flights with Obama and then magically turn into complete supporters and there were all sorts of accusations of coercion and strong arming and threats and payouts and a hint at the true meaning of "the most transparent" administration.

its not a huge conspiracy or anything different, someone beat him up? really? come on folks, get real candidates run, they say all the reasons they are 'better' than the other candidates and at some point they ultimately then endorse that candidate and instead share all the reasons that candidate is the 'best' and vice versa,,it wasn't so long ago when Trump praised how qualified Clinton was and what a great president she will be but now all of a sudden, she is just not to be trusted,,,lol that's just politics, period

hmmmm, some back room politics happening for sure! My son told me that when Bernie endorsed Hilary, he had lots of makeup on, to cover up some bruises and cuts on his face..then he proceeded to inform me of the Clinton Foundation and how crooked that is.. oh, what evil webs they weave.. Holy Moly,so the DNC-Mugs beat the Crap out of poor Bernie to make him compliant?

What is your opinion on Bernie Sanders endorsing Clinton? Bernie sold out long ago when he turned Communist!

I was wondering about that myself. If there was going to be a " He is old & fell off the curb or plane" story.

frankly I don't think Bernie has another 4 years on the planet. If I had to vote for him, I would be caring more about what his running mate had to say then him. same probably goes for Hillary!

I don't know, she may be around for awhile. She appears to be stiffening up.. fossilizing right before our eyes. I think she will live to be around 95.. turn into one of those real old crabby ladies. Then she will run the rest home with a iron fist... crabby hall monitor

Yes, he did, but not at the convention. He sold out when he ran as a Democrat instead of sticking to his "Independent" roots.
