Trump 2016 it is boys B)


Again, literally no one is scared about Bernie bros threatening to turn out to the polls in large numbers, especially since most of the bros who are entitled and racist enough to think that a Trump presidency is 'no big deal' are the same kinds who didn't even vote in the first place because they were too lazy to check out the rules to vote in their primary.

Strawman argument, was I insinuating people were somehow scared? No, you said that yourself, which some may say is telling...

Few things.

1) Bernie Sanders supporters will overwhelmingly support Hillary over Trump in the 2016 election. You know this, I know this, the good stats show this. Those threats are empty and baseless. Not gonna happen.

2) Completely outside of the results of the 2016 primaries, you have to admit that voting laws in this country are ridiculous. Shelby County v. Holder really gutted the Voting Rights Act of 1965. There are just so many problems with voting in the US now, and Republicans have done a lot of damage to voting laws in recent years.

3) Why do people insist on using the term Bernie Bros? 41% of voters in the DNC primaries have been male and they have been split 50-50 among Sanders and Clinton: http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2016/04/19/us/elections/new-york-primary-democratic-exit-polls.html?_r=0

Would it be sexist to use the term Hillary sisters? Or just plain lame? I just think it's easy to get caught up in the whole "Bernie Bro" thing when you frequent parts of the internet and places like this where it is mostly males that support Sanders when in reality Democratic male voters are 50-50 Clinton/Sanders. And even if the term is accurate, it's still an attempt to be derogatory towards him and his supporters, and if Sanders or Trump supporters came up with an equivalent name for Hillary supporters they would be screaming sexism.

It's because the vast majority of the 'Bernie or bust, vote Trump' people are dudes. I don't think of all Bernie supporters as Bernie bros at all, or even close, really.

That's funny, the exact same thought comes to my head when I read any post of yours.

You are literally the fine-tuned version of this

People are excited at rallies. They are there to get excited.

Also, more people have voted for HRC but Bernie has drawn bigger crowds so rallies are probably a poor example to use.

And I think Trump has actually drawn the most 'excitement' of any candidate, for better or worse.


You said she wasn't running on big ideas and that there was nothing exciting about her. I said you suffered from confirmation bias which is why you are seemingly incapable of seeing why she's an exciting candidate.
