Sanders endorsement of Hillary was less than enthusiastic

Perhaps because his endorsement ISN'T right.

Right? Trump even makes GWB look like a genius, and that's really saying something.

Akin to Hillary making Nixon look a paragon of honesty!

Didn't I hear him say he'd go to every corner of the country to work for Clinton and Democrats up and down the ballot?

I guess Sanders felt compelled to endorse her but basically he has the reservations about her that he has always had. Sanders comes across as another of those voting for Hillary not because he supports her but because he opposes Trump.

What's wrong with that? It's probably the truth. It's certainly why I'm voting for her.

If he said this, he must have thrown up just after doing so given what he really thinks of her.

Maybe he should have just said that the only reason he is endorsing her is because he does not want Trump to be president ....... or did he say that in effect?

He said things like that before even before Trump was the nominee, for example in April he said,"On her worst day, Hillary Clinton is a hundred times better than any of the Republicans." He claimed that he was holding out for a more progressive platform, and true to his word, once he got some concessions, he endorsed her.

He also said that she was not qualified to be president, lacked good judgement and was owned by special interests.

So which version should we believe?

Well count me in.

I think Trump would be a terrifying, disastrous president. Unimaginably awful. I'd really think about emigrating if he wins.

I don't like Hillary at all, but I am going to vote for her. The people who are angry at Sanders for endorsing her are crazy too! What kind of maniacs go from Sanders to Trump, the polar opposites of the political spectrum?

This is not a reality TV show. This is the leader of the Free World, the most powerful job in the world!! Take this seriously. Vote for Hillary. She's not perfect, but she's not crazy. She won't launch nuclear arms against North Korea because she feels offended. She's not spewing racist rhetoric to rile up the unwashed hoardes! I don't like her arrogance, her lying, her egotism or her husband. She is far to the right for me, but she's my candidate in this election.

Just shows he was never the political saint his followers thought he was.

For God's Sake, he's a politician!!

It doesn't matter what you believe about what Bernie believes!! He's not the candidate. He does not stand for anything Trump stands for. So if you're a Bernie supporter, you have to choose Hillary or you are betraying your candidate, going completely against his core values. He does not want another Justice Scailia on the Supreme Court. Do you? If so, well, Trump is your man. Compared to Trump, Hillary is Joan of Arc and Sister Teresa and MLK Jr and Florence Nightingale combined. She's a pristine beacon of purity compared with the moldy slime that Trump is made of. I choose her, like her or not. She's the best candidate by far.

Nixon was an active participant in an illegal coverup of illegal activity. He broke the law.

Hillary used poor judgement, lied about it, repeatedly. She's a liar, no question, but not to the extent that she's broken the law. Ask the FBI director. He knows something about the law.

And yes, Hillary is a paragon of honesty compared with Nixon and with Trump, who reminds me of Hitler and Mussolini and maybe Sadam Hussein, whom Trump admires.

I wonder how big a check Hillary gave the old socialist to kiss her big fat ass ?

I'm glad he didn't light fireworks for Clinton. His supporters won't be easily fooled. Just convinced that at this time, voting for her is the right choice. That's enough, and that's what will actually work to bring them over.

Furthermore, Sanders is clear that he's allying with Clinton this election season, but he's not a Clintonite or an old-school, standard-issue Democrat. He's going to be a (valuable) thorn in her side for as long as he has any political gas. Good. And I say that not because I hate Clinton. I don't. I think she's uninspiring and without organized people pushing her to consider "the little people" and not just "big money, big corporate America" I do think she's inclined toward selling out the middle and underclass.
