and vote for the party&#8217;s opposition.\u00a0 Those in the GOP who do not support Trump will stay home.\u00a0 However we are learning about many Democrats who do plan to cross party lines and vote for Trump.\u00a0 Regardless of this being the result of policy position or in opposition to Clinton, Democrats already want to label any progressive not casting a Clinton vote a &#8220;BernieBot&#8221; or &#8220;Bernie Bro&#8221;.\u00a0 Whatever childish accusation makes them feel better.\u00a0 Fact still remains, Clinton hasn&#8217;t EARNED their vote.\u00a0 Now go back and read the last two sentences of my first paragraph.<\/p>\n<p>The amusing arrogance of Clinton supporters is doing them no good either.\u00a0 Denial, insult, acting as if it&#8217;s some civic duty to vote against a candidate instead of for one.\u00a0 All childish antics akin to crying so they&#8217;ll get their way.\u00a0 Instead of presenting details to create support for Clinton their playground behavior amounts to &#8220;vote for her or else&#8221;!\u00a0 Or else what?\u00a0 Or else we get meltdown right instead of meltdown left?\u00a0 What they are completely failing to understand, what their partisan blinders are not allowing them to see, is that a whole lot of people despise Clinton as much as Trump.\u00a0 Oh no!\u00a0 How could that be?\u00a0 Worse than the perceived doofus, racist, Antichrist?\u00a0\u00a0 Yes.\u00a0 Clinton is a maniacal liar of centurion proportions already sold to Wall Street interests. \u00a0 A foreign policy failure.\u00a0 Please pursuit all arguments of Republican witch hunts and manufactured crusades.\u00a0 Thinking people realize it&#8217;s not all bullshit.\u00a0 The woman&#8217;s made mad foreign policy mistakes.\u00a0 She jeopardized national security in &#8220;bad judgement&#8230; for her convenience&#8221;.\u00a0\u00a0 Who the hell cares who did it before without scrutiny.\u00a0 Several past wrongs by others don&#8217;t make her pathetic decisions okay.<\/p>\n<p>We will go through this election and Clinton supporters will emerge flabbergasted that Trump will be sworn in as President instead of the DNC&#8217;s anointed one.\u00a0 They will blame independents for not turning out.\u00a0 They will blame their &#8220;BernieBots&#8221;.\u00a0 They will blame anyone and everything but themselves for not putting forth a suitable candidate.\u00a0 No, that does not mean Bernie Sanders.\u00a0 They had a large pool of qualified Democrats to choose from.\u00a0 Debbie Shultz <em>chose<\/em> to anoint Hillary Clinton as the DNC&#8217;s candidate.\u00a0 &#8220;The end of civilization&#8221; as Trump&#8217;s ghost writer recently put it?\u00a0 Maybe so.\u00a0 Trump could have been averted.\u00a0\u00a0 Democrats and the Democratic National Committee are responsible for putting forth Hillary Clinton as their Presidential nominee.\u00a0 Not those who do not support her.\u00a0 Own it.\u00a0 Do not blame others for the results of your ongoing bad judgement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>More information keeps emerging confirming the DNC&#8217;s predetermined coronation of Hillary Clinton as the party&#8217;s Presidential nominee.\u00a0 Debbie Shutlz, in all of her arrogance, set forth an agenda to nominate the only Democratic candidate imaginable who may not be able to beat Donald Trump, the other worst Presidential candidate of all time.\u00a0 Party line liberals, &hellip;
