It still amazes me how many people are all a-swoon over his concern for the little people. I don't get that from him at ALL. He says pretty words that get him attention and has zero actions to back it up. Bernie "Lip Service" Sanders, the historical figure for the ages.
He lost by 3.7 MILLION votes. General elections have been lost by more.
He really missed a golden opportunity on this one. Six weeks ago, he could have negotiated for something - some platform planks, a cabinet position (for him or someone he prefers) - in exchange for significant support.

Yep. I feel like I'm one of the only ones who hasn't been drugged or something. I just don't see what some others seem to.
I know that it is just redundant at this point, but this stupid stupid speech makes me so angry. He had literally decades to get shit done and he sat on his hands. Now that a woman is coming along and fixing shit that the previous generation of men fucked up, he starts to speak up? He's just another old guy looking out for himself.
GenerationS. Definitely did not mean to make that singular.
OMFG HE DIDN'T DROP OUT?!?!?!?!? Fuck him and his old man narcissism.
Of course not.
"The major political task that we face in the next five months is to make certain that Donald Trump is defeated and defeated badly. And I personally intend to begin my role in that process in a very short period of time."
bleh- it ws on & al I could hear were crackers being smacked.
It ws an obnoxious stump speech..
he mentioned the importance of defeating Cheeto Jesus, but otherwise it was all white boy ME ME ME!
I was wondering if he mentioned Cheeto Jesus. Is he doing anything to encourage his supporters to vote for HRC?
Not really from what I can tell. Granted I just watched clips of his speech on Rachel Maddow, but he emphasized that he and Hillary had many issues they strongly disagree on. And some they agree on. So...yeah, he's still painting her as not a liberal at all. The asshole.

OMG. Rachel Maddow showed two people who were Bernie supporters.
"Um. I don't know who I'm going to support. I'm still focused on Bernie being the nominee. And if that doesn't happen, um, I don't know, I'm undecided."
OH MY FUCKING GOD, TRUMP IS REVOKING PRESS PASSES AND TALKING ABOUT BANNING PEOPLE BASED ON THEIR RELIGION AND CALLING MEXICANS RAPISTS AND QUESTIONING FEDERAL JUDGES BASED ON THEIR ETHNICITY. THIS IS NOT A FUCKING QUESTION!
There was also a bit where he complained about how many seats Democrats have lost in Congress and in statehouses. Like, oh yeah, shit we're just lazy Bernie. Good lookin out.

Yeah.
"I'm going to start that role any minute now. Just you wait and see -- you won't have to wait long! I'll be stepping up very shortly. Soon. Really, really soon. Any ... minute ... now. Starting now. No, starting -- now. Starrrrrrtttttiiinnnnngggg ... hang on, I just need a sec, I'll get started on this really soon ... "
This better not be like #wheresbernie when it came to #holdthefloor. (God, I really love that last hashtag.)
You guys. I am working on our budget and also watching Rachel Maddow and WE ARE OUT OF BOXED WINE.
I blame Cheeto Jesus.
Did you try tipping the box like Kathy Griffin's mom used to? Or cutting off the spout and pouring the rest in a glass (not that I would know-I've just...heard...that people do that sort of thing.)

DUDE.
I've already taken the bag out of the box and squeezed every last drop from it.

What do you think I am? An amateur?
I taught my MIL that trick. She was amazed that you can get so much out of it that way.
