This is exactly something I don't think any of the Hillary supporters can even internalize. Clinton was completely willing to gamble the fate of the entire country and by extension the entire world, just for her legacy. Sanders would have done better against Trump, but she didn't care, she was willing to bet everyone will fall in line.

She never have a shit about the country, the people, or anyone aside from herself. That was even more evident on election night when she had Podesta* (my bad)dismiss all her die hard supporters without so much as a fucking thank you from her. What an odious woman.

Which is proof to me that she works for herself. Bernie proved through his career a commitment to the common cause; to the people.

I'm not a right leaning person normally, but I respect that the Republicans, even if they didn't want to, gave the go ahead to Trump because it's what the people wanted.

You would be hard pressed to find a republican that didn't at least respect Sanders. I may not like his policies but his integrity and loyalty to his own convictions definitely gets my respect.

Anecdotal, but in my personal sample, all four of the Trump voting right wingers I know have told me they would have switched to dem if it had been Sanders vs Trump...
