Yes, I speak from experience. (And, unfortunately, I am now in a status that will probably result in an hospitalisation: I even answer to the ignored).

I guess people handle losing differently. When Hillary lost to Trump (with Bernie or busters help)a lot of us went through a lot of grief stages. Lash just went straight to unrestrained anger.

If true I blame the marketing campaign.
I blame the DNC for torpedoing him, changing the rules to allow a billionaire to get in the race to stop him, a billionaire getting in the race and spending millions on ads that lied about him, extremely biased news anchors, extremely biased so-called moderators at debates, Joe Biden telling reams of lies and threatening to fight voters, calling voters fat and challenging them to push-ups, but the media refuses to to point out those lies or examine wtf is wrong with Biden.

Sanders supporters sure helped sandbag Clinton's run...just think what they can do to Biden's...good work!
When you cheat people, they usually don't turn around and vote for you. Sort of like what's going to happen this time.

Y'know, if people weren't out here looking at exit polling that screams blatant fraud, and if people hadn't watched a relentless, year-long coordinated media effort to smear Sanders, that might mean something. As it is, you idiots just re-elected Trump. #ElectionFraud

How many kids shot in Kent State?
If he'll tell this many lies, you don't worry that he's lying to you?
His jaw should drop in the floor, name-dropping RKF and MLK while he fought civil rights at every turn.

It's shameful that people calling themselves Democrats would vote for this lying goon.

Yeah, blame everybody else for the fact that his message only resonated with a minority of Democratic voters.

I suppose you're referring to the crime bill? It was designed to protect communities from what was seen as a huge increase in violence and black-on-black crime in the early stages of the crack epidemic. It's destructive effects took time to become apparent and it's not the first time well-meaning legislation had destructive but unintended consequences. Blaming it all on Biden is simplistic. I've said repeatedly that not studiously examining the effects of legislation and correcting problems as they come to light is one of the most serious shortcomings in our system. But with the "three strikes and you're out, lock 'em up forever" mentality that was in control for two decades it's doubtful that the damage being done to minority families and communities would have been recognized. It took sociologists years to see what was really going on.

No one has been "cheated". Bloomberg had every right to spend his money on his campaign. And if he hadn't been seen on the debate stage he might still be in the race. If you don't want to vote for the only candidate who appears to have a chance of defeating Trump, that's your choice.

Joe Biden makes appeal to Bernie Sanders supporters.


Joe Biden attempted to appeal to supporters of Bernie Sanders
after the former vice president is projected to win the primary vote
in Florida and Illinois.

Yes, obviously, Bernie paid thousands of people to cram into enormous venues and, crafty bastard that he is, also paid thugs to make sure no one else drew crowds even remotely as big or enthusiastic.
Come to think of it, the whole thing was a mirage. It really was Biden that drew those crowds. Yeah! That's the ticket!

It was caused by his mindset about the intrinsic connection between dirty black people and all bad things. He's a racist. He goes on to talk about how he didn't want a world where his children to be forced to live in a "jungle" with black kids. He wanted those dirty black people to be forever locked away from his white family. SHAME on anyone who whitewashes that.

Michael Bloomberg is the only candidate to give money to the DNC. They just changed their rules to let him onto the debate stage.

We are living in a post-truth world.

No one denies that his supporters were, and continue to be, passionate and energetic. But a rally isn't the electorate. A rally is a self-selected portion of the electorate.
Quote:

That is simplistic. No one likes "dirty people" — ever hear the expression "white trash"? It's completely separate from a studied view of what causes poverty and what we can do to alleviate it. The bottom line is that there are poor, ignorant people in all ethnic and racial groups and some of them are driven by desperation into crime.

I don't give a **** about them either. The fact is that Bloomberg tanked as soon as people saw him on the stage.

Not just anger, but the sort filled with bile towards others who are on another "side".

I was thinking of not just teaching but coaching in youth sports. Or even parenting. There's one sort of coach or parent that teaches children to accept a loss with grace and friendliness towards the other team. There's another sort who behave differently and teach all the wrong responses.
