(27,835 posts)... that you see this as being between "Hillary being given papal infallibility" and being overrun with people who do nothing but bash HRC, and Obama, and the Dem Party as a whole, speaks for itself.
There IS a vast gulf between the two mindsets, and the two modes of behaviour. But this place is already morphing back into what it was during the primaries, when the Bernie-or-Busters were running the place.
Have you ever actually read the posts on JPR, Ken? Let me give you a taste:
Hillary had Seth Rich murdered, along with at least two dozen other people. She was planning to start a war with Russia the minute she was in office, and already had those plans underway. Her "thugs" beat-up Bernie the night of the convention. Bernie's family was threatened with violence and/or death if he didn't concede. Hillary "stole" the election from Bernie, and every Dem who supported her was part of the conspiracy - including Liz Warren and John Lewis.
There was post after post about how HRC was a proven liar because she wouldn't admit to the public that she is dying of a fatal disease - as shown by the fact that she wears a full-body brace and used a body-double on the campaign trail to hide her condition from the voters. That's right, Ken - Hillary is a liar because she refused to admit to having a disease she never had.
I could go on.
Do I want to engage in discussion with these lunatics? No, I don't.
I'm glad you campaigned for Hillary. But when people say they couldn't vote for HRC because of "military intervention", and then went on to facilitate Trump's election by voting third party or sitting out the election, one can only reasonably ask: Did you think that the guy who wants to know why we can't use nukes as long as we have them, and who talked about "blowing people out of the water" if he doesn't like their attitude, will be keeping the country out of a war?
