    and Bernie campaigning for Hillary in 2016

    Every time I’ve mentioned this, I’ve gotten the exact same reply: he was pretending to campaign for Hillary just to sell his book and earn money

    • Classic. It’s an unwinnable position, it’s entrenched in their identity as victims. Believing differently would shatter their reality.

      Tangentially related: I’ve never sat down to do the research, but I remember for at least a period Bernie was out-campaigning Hillary on her behalf. Specifically, I remember Hillary disappeared in August (aside from private events with wealthy donors), which is when the Parkinson’s rumours really took hold amongst chuds and Jimmy Dore. Of course, it was probably her lingering pneumonia that led to the beautiful moment of I FEEL GREAT on September the 11th.
