From Clay Jones on his political cartoon “Wrath Of Berners,” how Bernie Sanders supporters are pissed about Hillary Clinton, and a famous river in Egypt
Supporters of Bernie Sanders, you put up a great fight. You have passion. You’re standing for your core convictions and principles. You’re on the right side of the issues. But ya’ll crazy.
After I published yesterday’s cartoon on Hillary Clinton being the nominee, I received comments from Berners about how Hillary isn’t the nominee. She’s not yet technically, but she is. Denial sucks. Get over it.
I ran into a friend of mine yesterday who is very intelligent and informed on the issues. He’s still convinced Hillary Clinton stole the nomination and he was furious at Obama for endorsing her. Really? What do you expect the president to do, remain on the sidelines and watch Donald Trump become president?
The mission every Berner should accept is to prevent Trump from becoming president. Elizabeth Warren has accepted it. How can you believe in everything Bernie Sanders supports yet not do a damn thing to prevent the racist, ignorant, stupid bully from entering the White House?
You believe in Bernie Sanders. You respect his position on every issue. Will you still respect it when he endorses Clinton?
You don’t have to like Clinton. I’m not crazy about Clinton. But compared to the threat of Donald Trump putting judges on the Supreme Court, I freaking love Hillary Clinton.
So, Berners, if denial is a river in Egypt, you’re going up it without a paddle.
