Bernie takes his toys and goes home ...

The DNC has a plan;

10.1K11831
A Bernie Sanders delegate says that the DNC is replacing Bernie supporters with paid seat fillers in order to create a fake image of "unity" as the convention goes into its final day.

In the clip, the delegate says that he got to the convention between 5-6pm and the place was virtually empty but that it suspiciously filled up very quickly.
"Every seat in the house is full � so those seat fillers you guys were hearing about? It's real, they're in here now," states the delegate.

He went on to explain how the seat fillers were people he did not know and hadn't seen at the convention previously.
The man goes on to note how the arrival of the seat fillers coincided with the media narrative that the DNC is now far more unified than when it began and how everyone is applauding and cheering in unity.
"It's because the Bernie people aren't here and the people that are here are getting paid to sit in their seats and clap their hands," he adds, noting that attendees are also being blocked from getting back in if they leave their seat at any point � even to just go to the bathroom.
"My guess is that's because a seat filler is in your seat and the optics of everyone having to shift and stand and move is not something they want to see," says the delegate, adding, "There are people in that hall who are being represented in the media as Bernie Sanders people and they are not � don't believe what you see on TV."

If Hitlery doesnt get a convention bounce, after all those great speeches on her behalf (wink wink), shes toast in November.

Actuall to wreck thing for Hitlery. But that sounds so heartless.

bernard is seriously conflicted. First he was an Independent, then he said he was a democrat just to get on the primary ballots. Then he failed/was robbed by collusion to get that nomination. Now he has pulled up his pants and went back to Vermont while morphing back into an Independent. Do you really want somebody that confused to be your president, or just run to suck votes away from hillary?

President Clinton scoffs at your wishes.

I wanted him to run as an independent. If he didn't win he could at least wreck things for status quo Hitlery.

Yes, Bernie said all along he was going back if not nominated, so not really surprised.

Yes, there are people very passionate about Sen. Sanders and more power to them.

All of Wilkes County wishes we could forget your movements.

Keep your face out of my movements.

Your movements are powerful, too, if it makes you feel better.

The movement is bigger than party.

It made Sec. Clinton move from the center. The movement is powerful.

Sparklin

No surprise.

He and his supporters were soundly rejected by the democrap establishment.

Heat Street:

The nomination was barely sealed up at the Democratic National Convention before Bernie Sanders, who had campaigned against Hillary Clinton for the party's nod, went back to being an Independent.

Sanders, who considers himself, officially, an Independent in Congress because his views lean further left than the Democratic party's platform, caucuses with Democrats. But until declaring an intention to run for the presidency in 2015, he had rarely, if ever, identified as a member of the Democratic Party (he's been in politics since 1979).

And now, despite pleading with his base to support Hillary, even though they're concerned that she's too moderate, Sanders will return to Vermont and to his seat in the Senate, and he'll do it with no official party affiliation.
