My Reaction to the Bernie and Hillary Show in NH Today

It's in a brief (for me) video on my YouTube channel:

Ask yourself one question. After all we've seen from the Clinton campaign and the Dnc to steal this election, do you trust Hillary Clinton to follow through on anything she said today?

Sorry, not buying it
Not sending Hillary any money, not voting for her. Your views may differ. Feel free to disagree.

I was hoping Bernie would run as an Indy.
Hillary vote = more war everywhere
Trump vote = more wars at home
Fuck them both.
Fuck American "election" fraud.
I had hoped Bernie would fight along with us.

Chill, D. J..
Bernie is making us take over now. $hrill has got some very serious POTUS/Security issues. POTUS controls our nuclear arsenal. Ironically, the citizens control it by their votes. The Bernster pulled back the curtain to expose how bad it's gotten since Rayguns/Reagan. $hrill gets elected, she has access to the full military arsenal. $hrill vs. tRump. Pick one. No thank you.

An idea is not responsible for who happens to be carrying it at the time. It stands or it falls on its own merits.
Money bomb for the Green Party.
Even a tiny donation would make a statement.

BTW, by making his endorsement now, Bernie has probably guaranteed that Jill will meet all of her July state ballot access deadlines. Somewhere I read that the Greens are being swamped with Berniecrat volunteer.
Coincidence, probably.

If I made political decisions based on the scientific rigor of candidates' beliefs I'd just never have anybody to support. And I'm a scientist (physics), just in case that matters.
I keep hearing those rumors

https://www.euronews.com/live
Thanks so much for sharing this link Mimi!
It gives me something to think about. I'm not sure when or if I will be able to get my heart back into politics! I need time to heal!
Great piece
Jill said exactly what needed to be said. The genesis of this movement long preceded Sanders, and it will most surely go forward without him. This fight is truly about the future of humanity, the future of Planet Earth, and thus it is far, far bigger than any one individual. I am genuinely grateful to Bernie for all his good work - now it's time to turn the page and move on.

Stein might be being polling much better right now
If Bernie hadn't got in the race. It didn't take Bernie to see how flawed Hillary is. Jill Stein would have been promoted a lot sooner by many of those same people who until now have supported Bernie. Better late than never.
Beware the bullshit factories.
Didn't see the event, don't need to
If Bernie has kissed the ring, then it's time for the movement to move beyond him. He helped bring us together and show us a different way. We should now continue on that way with his leadership. But where? Should we rally to the Greens for now?
Please help support caucus99percent!
IMO, Yes.
IMO, Yes.
You could all help us out

Lord god,
Bernie is 74 years old. He showed us that we (the informed citizens) always have the power over the >0001%. Now, what are we going to do now? I will not vote for $hrill. She is totally incompetent to be near the nuke protocols/buttons. tRump is too, but in a different way. The Clintons and tRumps were together when he wed his latest trophy wife. Rec'd!

Just got the Bernie email about endorsing Clinton
I cried. I thought I was resigned to it, but damn, still so disappointing. I'm not angry, I don't blame Bernie for doing whatever he did. I get it, I guess, I know the pressure was enormous and he felt like getting concessions was important.
But I still don't understand why it just couldn't wait until the convention.
Damn.
Anyway, just venting. This seemed like an appropriate spot.
me too.
I just read the email from Bernie as well. And, it made me squeeze back tears as well. I will never vote for Hillary, and was pleased that Sanders offered no praise for Clinton, other than "better than Trump". I think that is rather pointed, and his commitment to actively campaign for progressive minded individuals gives me hope that I will not have to puke and watch Bernie lick her jack boots in campaign appearances. Oh, God, I hope I don't have to experience him campaigning for her. We watched Warren compromise herself...please, please, please don't go there Bernie.
here's my reaction
I hit unsubscribe and put down as a reason: "sold out to Hillary Clinton and the corrupt establishment"
I am done with this charade.
Seriously, does Bernie suddenly believe that laws are just for the little people given Comey's testimony? How is she going to get out of the perjury conviction? She can't blame any staff, it's her responsibility to respect any markings on the documents she sent. And does Bernie believe the whole Clinton Foundation history is A-ok?
“The first duty of a man is to think for himself”
The pressure has been enormous since waaaay before
the last primaries for Bernie to concede and endorse Hillary. Each successive interview had the interviewer trying to get Bernie to say the "e" word. The Clintons appeared determined to have Bernie endorse her before the convention to prevent a brokered convention. They are all about power. Nothing else matters to them. The pressure must have been enormous.
Maybe they threatened to do everything in their power to hurt Vermont. We can't know what went on behind the scenes. I think he thought he could hold out, but found out differently.
The Clintons think it's,"Not we, him," because that's how they think. They may be in for a surprise.

I dunno what was said. Maybe something like,

I unsubscibed and told him why.
I now believe he was always a stalking horse for Hillary. his presence and reputation kept other candidates away. It was all a kabuki dance.
I'll never send money to a politician again or urge my friends to vote.
I've seen lots of changes. What doesn't change is people. Same old hairless apes.
Oh how silly!
Unsubscribe. Never vote again, etc... That's up to you.
But to take your understandably hurt feelings and create CT about Bernie being a stalking horse is just plain silly.
Bernie always said he'd support Hill if she won. He voted for Bill - though publicly stated he really couldn't stand the guy, etc....
He wants a Dem to be president, and has always held that position.
Show the guy some modicum of respect. No one else has accomplished what he has, even if that isn't enough.
Bernie's doing what he feels he must.
I think he's playing it the way he thinks is right. He didn't tell us all to vote for Clinton. He only said Trump can't be allowed to gain the Presidency. I disagree with his assessment of the political calculus, but I can't say he's wrong, only that I disagree.
Moreover he has said, explicitly, he can't deliver the votes of his supporters. Clinton will either convince the people who voted for him or she won't. He knows each of us will make up our own mind. I'm not going to second-guess his decision.
What he has accomplished I never thought would be accomplished. He has exposed the festering corruption at the heart of our political system in a way that only the willfully ignorant will be able to ignore. I give him mad props for that alone. I think he lit a fire in the belly of a lot of people, and it won't be easily quenched.
I voted for Bill, too. But I learned better.
Should have voted for Perot.
I've seen lots of changes. What doesn't change is people. Same old hairless apes.
Perot
Perot!!! It is voters like me that are responsible for the Presidency of William Jefferson Clinton. I voted for Perot. So... those at TOP who are so quick to blame Nader for BushII, ...well, consider Perot is responsible for Clinton I and II. Really though, I will again vote 3rd party, or write in . We had Bill, don't need Hill, II is always overkill

I did not watch the "rally". In my opinion there was not a need to watch it
"Sander's" speech or not. The only thing the Clinton's can do to get me to watch is announce they will be retiring from politics.
Bernie ignited a movement, it is up to us to carry on. My support, financial and otherwise will go to Jill Stein. Now is the time to crash her server with new supporters and dollars!!! Let's make a statement! The time is here, it is that moment in the cycle to move it forward to a progressive agenda. Conservatism is in retreat per Jeb Bush.
Agreed

"You can't just leave those who created the problem in charge of the solution."---Tyree Scott
Well this has certainly changed my opinion of Bernie.
Who and what is he loyal to? Which promises are more important than others? There are things that piss me off. 1. All of the people who couldn't afford to send him money and did anyway.
2. All of the disappointed and disillusioned young people that trusted him and saw him as a role model. 3. If the issues were important enough for him to challenge her, then they are still important enough for him to fight for them to the bitter end - especially since she stole our election, is corrupt and a liar, is absolutely not what the country needs, and everyone hates her and Trump.
I am disappointed that he quit. We needed a revolutionary. Someone who would rather die on their feet than live on their knees. Apparently he isn't it.

See his new Facebook post.
Here ya go:
Sorry, Bernie
I do not believe one letter of anything you write about HilLIARy Rodham Clinton. She will pay lip service to your ideas as long as they are needed (i.e. until the election) and then will flush them down the toilet without a second thought and govern like a Total Profiteer.
It's really too bad that you can't see that electing HER would be "a devastating blow to all that we are fighting for" - just not for quite the same reasons.
There is no justice. There can be no peace.
Did you see the comments?
She ran a scorched earth campaign. She cannot do that and expect people to support her even if Bernie feels this is the action he needs to take.
The logic of getting further with the Dems than the GOP sounds good until you look at Obama past and present. Bernie should be running with Stein. This is the year to muscle forward, not bide "incremental change".
"Religion is what keeps the poor from murdering the rich."--Napoleon
There's a major problem
With running green. Say a miracle happens & Bernie would win. He would have NO supporters in congress. The dems & repubs would both refuse to work with him.
That would always have been the case.
No, he went over to the enemy!
I've seen lots of changes. What doesn't change is people. Same old hairless apes.
He always said he'd support the nominee.
No, without continued and vigorous activism from the Bernie wing
Especially In Supporting non compromising progressive down ticket candidates, I don't expect her to remain left of center ... But that's why this endorsement. And especially this promise, by Bernie, to campaign EVERYWHERE to get Bernie democrats elected is such an important part of today's show.
I am jaded enough to know NRC was playing to the Bernie caring today BUT she was, through the leak to the media that seemed timed to break during coverage of this event, that she is vetting a retired admiral was a wink and nod to her base that she has not gone fill tilt Bernie.
Talk about stepping on your own unity message

Now is NOT the time to give up on Bernie... Now IS the time to push harder to get candidates elected that will join with HIM to make sure this "most progressive dem platform". Is enacted BY. congress... The most progressive congress in our nations history - hopefully.
Orwell was an optimist
Why Hillary?
If you believe congress can be pushed to the left, why does it matter whether Trump or Hillary is in office? They're both liars, both represent the wealthy and powerful, what's the difference? Would Trump really be all that different?
What Trump in the White House would do however that Clinton wouldn't, is give congress someone to rail against. A bad decision by Clinton (invading yet another country for instance) would be met with silence by Democrats in congress. Trump will be fought every step of the way.
I'm firmly convinced that Hillary will be worse for this country in the long term than Trump. Reward corruption now, don't be surprised if you get more corruption next time as well.
to vote or not to vote
Both Trump and Hillary are dangerous, but in different ways. Trump could easily refuse to follow the Constitution. He could easily declare himself King of the World. Hillary will start wars, she will make a lot of bad decisions; however, Trump is a bigger danger by far in my opinion.
I haven't made a decision about who I will vote for. I might vote Green; I might write in.
That depends on what happens in the coming months.
Many of the posts here scare me as much as Trump scares me. I understand how fed up many of you are. I am too. After half a century of fighting the man, all that seems to happen is that we move closer to fascism.
Trump is, at the very least, a proto fascist. If we beat him back, another will rise to take his place. If he becomes President, I will be terrified every waking and sleeping moment.
I trust Bernie's instincts. He has done the impossible even getting to the Senate as an avowed Socialist. He has broken many, many barriers in the past 15 months.
The Clinton's political lies are not any worse than all the rest of the political lies I have witnessed.
I'll take my cue from Bernie for now. We must stop Trump at all costs. We can fight Hillary later.
If she looks certain to win, I will vote Green probably. If it is close, I think I will have to vote for her. That doesn't mean Bernie's movement gets dismantled. It is up to us to keep it going.
May the dolphins, whales and furry things inherit the world. Humans, unless we do an about face, have just about proven we don't deserve this beautiful planet.
Her lies aren't what
scare me. It's her agenda, policy and who and what she works for. She has declared herself queen and does not follow the constitution or any rule of law. As Nancy said the constitution is an unenforceable piece of paper. She is a fascist and a psycho killer to boot. FDR had a good point about fear. After decades of fear being pumped out starting with the Bushies I just can't get too whipped up or terrified about Trump, 'terrist's who are gonna kill my family' or bankster's creating the end of the world. Hillary and the Democratic party are complicit with the RW.
This is not voting it's extortion and after you vote out of fear of other they turn around and implement the same damn things you were scared of. Victories for compromise. Who are they compromising with hummm... ? I find The Clinton's way more terrifying to the world and human everywhere then The Hairball. I also find a criminal candidate who kisses Kissinger to be unacceptable. Maybe if you let go of your fear you could find the courage to take a good look at what the Clinton's and the Democratic party is about. I voted for Jill Stein in 2012. I did not fall for 'better then the Mormon'. Every election they sing this song about the most important ever we need to stop which ever RW lunatic is running. This time around we have two RW lunatics running. Time to say enough.

If you truly believe she will be WORSE
Then all the more reason to work as hard as you can to get as many real progressives elected to congress as we can. NO?
Orwell was an optimist
Good luck with that
We here in Oregon did luck out with Merkley but the weasel Wydon still runs and wins unopposed. Our rep. in the house, Blumenhauer is useless and folds like a cheap tent. I joined and worked for my county party, The Multnomah County Democrat's starting in 2000 until 2007-8. I was a Deaniac and was recruited to the party be a Green after Bush was selected
I quit as all the so called progressive Dems. we got elected city state and national turned out to be corrupt bent assholes in the pocket. Our governor the corrupt Kitzhaber had to resign for his corrupt pay to play. First thing he said once elected was 'Oregon is Open for Business'. He then proceded to ship coal down the river and via the rails to send to China. Our 'Democratic' mayor a former tax dogging Republican is busy demolishing Portland under the guise of growth it's environmental. Our city and state is solid Democratic but they are all in the bag. I'm now working hard to get them out of office.
The trouble is the DNC, the DCCC and the Democratic party machine will not allow real progressives to get any funding or traction. If you do manage to get progressives elected to congress they too kiss the ring and refuse to do anything but be the symbolic left wing. There is no left, left. All we get are pols who run under the banner of progressive. Look at Sherod Brown or even that ex-Republican Elisabeth Warren. Take off your progressive glasses and really look at what they do once elected. The Democratic party is beyond redemption both nationally and down ballot.
In 2012 I voted for Stein and then with the exception of Merkley voted for every Green or socialist that was on the ballot. So no if I will not be conned into working for any Democratic candidates down ticket. How will it help when the Democrat's you elect to congress blow off the majority the voters give them and proceed to say 60=a majority. No thanks been there done that. Like Bernie did today, they all cave when push comes to shove.My energy this election cycle is getting the odious so called progressives like Steve Novic in our city out. Our new mayor elect is another ex Republican who while more personable then Charlie Hales is also in the bag to the 'developers', realtor's and foreign investors.
Down or up ticket the Democratic party sucks. Enough is Enough. I'm done expecting that this party has any intention on any level to do anything except keeping the power right where it is. It's certainly not with us and is all about them. They may rule the world but they will never get my vote again. I've had enough with mitigating the damage done by both these so called party's. They are complicit and they mean all humans and the planet harm.
Suddenly, she's still a liar!
Suddenly, she needs Bernie voters.
Suddenly, she still a neolib.
Suddenly, she's Bernie's best bud, embracing everything he values.
Not so suddenly, she's STILL not getting my vote.

I've never seen such silliness as those who are acting either betrayed or surprised about this. That was always part of the Bernie package. And while I might disagree with him, to agree with Trumps' take on Bernie is foolish at best.

Some of us knew it was coming and kept hoping for him
to come to his senses and tell the lying cheat to go pound sand. That since she cheated him, slandered him, and tried to demean his record and his life's work every time she opened her mouth, he owed her NOT ONE DAMN THING. And then there were the few that said it was all 'media' lies, even though it was Sanders himself who was saying he would eventually endorse and would vote for her. But talking about it was bringing down 'morale'. (How's 'morale' is after this shit show?) And what in the world are we going to tell the young people who were so excited and joined Sanderss' campaign because they absolutely did not want another Clinton in office. They fully understand how Bill Clinton's 'agenda' ensured that they would never have the chance to live a better life than their parents, that they probably will be sleeping in Mommy and Daddy's basement for a long long time. I cannot understand the idea that after speaking about the problems and the poverty and the racism that stemmed directly from the tenure of her husband, he now supports the wife who did everything to push that hateful and punishing agenda through. Welfare reform, 'bringing violent predators to heel' (her own words), pushing NAFTA up our asses, etc.
We really need to get our shit together now. This 'announcement' has changed everything and if Clinton or Sanders thinks those pathetic little scraps that the platform committee threw Progressives is worth voting for another freaking Clinton, they're BOTH nuts.
I think you could grab a homeless person off the street and put them in the Oval Office and they'd do a better job than the scum we keep electing.

I canceled my contribution - but not the emails
Bernie himself still speaks for and is fighting for progressive causes, even if he's been strong-armed into conceding, and I'm happy to hear what he has to say.
But as soon as he conceded, I had to cancel the recurring contributions, because I can't risk one single dollar of my hard-earned money benefiting Clinton. The thought is nauseating.
What does this tweet mean? Not formally exiting race??
You know what?
They can go fuck themselves. I don't hate Sanders, I am not giving up on the "revolution" but I am tired of this game. Also, I am mad over my hair. You see, I used to have my hair cut every six weeks but for more than a year gave the money I would have spent on my hair to Sanders. First time ever I have contributed to a political campaign. And all I have wanted since the NY primary is for him to take it all the way to the convention. Now I am here crying and with bad hair to boot, Don King type of bad hair. Thank dog I sill got my mani-pedis. (I am olnly half joking.)

Just heard Kristen Welker report that Bernie won't be contesting

IOW, demanding further changes to the Platform (at the Convention) is now off-the-table.
A few minutes later, heard on MSNBC that Bernie has yet to suspend his campaign. (Think that helps him settle his bills.)
Also, there is talk of him having a roll call vote--strictly symbolic--at the convention.
Think FSC had one, didn't she? (We didn't watch.)

I love Bernie!!!! Of course I'm not happy about this either. And I can say with 1000% certainty I will never vote for her. I think a lot is going to happen between now and the convention. ( false hope, maybe! ). The rupubs are not going to let up on the emails, there's a new letter going to the FBI to investigate the Foundation, no one can predict if there will be any new "leaks" and I doubt her numbers will rise enough to make a difference.
