kind of hilarious that this sore loser continues to squander whatever clout and influence he had built up over the campaign season due to his own arrogance and delusion

he could be one of the most powerful and influential Democrats right now, a real leader in the party, but he's far too big headed for that

It was going to happen some time. The Dems have been very patient and accommodating with Sanders and he has not equivocated. Eventually they would get frustrated. They largely agree on the issues, but Sanders being an a--hole is the reason he got booed

Yeah, they're starting to lose tolerance for his charade, which was inevitable. He really has not handled the exit process well. Apparently he's been rubbing his fellow Senators the wrong way too by peacocking around the chamber with his Secret Service entourage which has been unneeded for months now. It appears he really did let the hype get to his head, which is sad because he used to be one of my favorite Senators.

Dude, you're talking about people who believe everything said by HA Goodman.

Dude, even BernieBros despise H.A. Goodman.

So who are the thousands of people who watch his videos and comment about how he's the best thing since sliced bread? Hillary supporters?

EDIT FOR CLARITY: Slightly off topic, but it's interesting the amount of Independents on the board who seem to care A LOT about how good or bad of a Democrat Bernie is...

Also quite amusing seeing the former PUMAs from 2008 now say Bernie is sabotaging the party and that he's not a "real Democrat" like that actually means anything.

At this point, who cares if Bernie endorses or not? Angry Hillary supporters will say "whatever" and Sanders supporters will call him a sellout.

Uh, I think you might be a bit confused...any "PUMA" who genuinely voted for McCain/Romney is almost certainly not a Hillary supporter now. Just check Hillaryis44 and Hillbuzz if you want proof of that. To the contrary, the Dixiecrat Clinton/McCain voters heavily supported Trump and Sanders this time. And the "activist left"/"netroots" which contains many of the #BernieOrBust people were also former Obama supporters who called PUMAs sore losers who should suck it up. I'm pretty sure jfern was one of these people. Despite the fact that the race was much closer in 2008 and she arguably won the popular vote. The vast majority of current Hillary supporters supported Obama either in the primary, the general, or both.

The guy still threatens a floor fight over TPP language while he knows very well that any flat out rejection will be a personal rebuke against Obama.
I think it's pretty clear by now that he doesn't give a shiite about anything else than himself.

Sometimes, a president pursues a policy that is out-and-out in contradiction to the bulk of his party.

Bush championing immigration reform got him sternly rebuked by his party.

I don't see why it would be out of the question for Obama's TPP to be rebuked by the Democrats.

Unity goes both ways.
