Wow, did anyone see this tweet from America Ferrera?

Harrah's casino site- Bernie supporters chant "English-only" to stop civil rights leader @DoloresHuerta from providing Spanish translation.

[stonecutter357]

1. wow!

[72DejaVu]

2. Yep

and saw someone else tweeted a confirmation.

[bluestateguy]

3. Disgusting

Bernie needs to tell his arrogant young white supporters, and aging hippies to dial it back.

[jsmirman]

8. This

they are so drunk on their perceived ideological purity - I've started giving it back with both barrels. This dog don't cower.

[PM Martin]

25. Bernie supporters reek of "NDPism".

The NDP is the far left party in Canada. They pride themselves on purity, yet are masters of making backroom dirty deals with the Conservatives.

[jsmirman]

30. I'm sure they're sincere

it's just despicable to challenge some of us who have worked so hard for progress as not progressive.

[iandhr]

10. I am a white male 2011 grad of the University of Vermont.

I am exactly the type of person that you would expect to support Bernie but I support Hillary.


Bernie bros are real. I know many of them personally.

[yardwork]

34. I got an angry drunken text from a Bernie Bro last night.

He and I are white and in our 50s. Bernie's loss last night sent him into a drunken rage. He sent me a nasty text at 2:30 am attacking my mother. Seriously.

There's a bunch of people who really need to grow up.

[Starry Messenger]

12. YES.

[brush]

4. Whoa! That's kinda low down.

It's like much of the crappola AAs have experience here.

[ismnotwasm]

5. Ugh--It seems to be true.

What is wrong with people?

[LexVegas]

6. Yes. Confirmed by other sources. nt

[Little Star]

7. WTH! That's just wrong of Bernie supporters.

[Fla Dem]

19. It goes to my theory that some are KKKarl Rove operatives.

I would like to think that true blue progressive/liberal Democrats would not stoop to such despicable behavior. Just as I'm sure there is an abundance of them on DU.

[Little Star]

20. You could be right about it being Rove operatives...

I hope it was them & not Bernie's supporters. Thanks for the different view of possibilities.

[BlueMTexpat]

26. I really think so too.

I do not believe that true Bernie supporters condone this, just as I would condemn anything similar on the part of self-styled Hillary supporters.

[iandhr]

9. Impossible

Bernie is a god and all of his supporters are pure. To even criticize Bernie or is supporters in any way is part of a cooperate conspiracy don't you know.

[displacedtexan]

17. Reminds me of Scientologists.

Note: I don't care what people believe, but I care how they treat those with different beliefs and/or no beliefs at all.

Purity is just a mask, anyway.

Congrats to us all today. A win is a win is a win!

11. Confirmed by Dolores Huerta

Dolores Huerta
?@DoloresHuerta

I offered to translate & Bernie supporters chanted English only! We fought too long & hard to be silenced Si Se Puede! #ImwithHer #NVcaucus

[UtahLib]

13. Shameful! You shall be known by the company you keep. nt

[Starry Messenger]

14. More from Dolores Huerta:

@DoloresHuerta
@BernieSanders Shame on your supporters for depriving Spanish speaking caucus goers of info they need for full participation! #NVcaucus

[Cha]

15. Why would they make such a chant?!!! Aren't they trying to court the minorities?!

Gracias for this, seaglass!

[Spazito]

16. That is beyond despicable...

Bernie's 'face' is his supporters, most people will never meet him and the closest they get is meeting his supporters and this vile behavior will certainly not attract Hispanic voters to him, quite the opposite actually, imo.

[DemonGoddess]

18. Seriously???

[shenmue]

21. Not cool

[jsmirman]

22. Weigel said Bernie surrogates were going after Huerta on a conference call

wish he would elaborate - not sure exactly what was said.

[still_one]

23. Brillant strategic move for Sanders to get the Hispanic vote. Gosh why didn't we think of it?

[PM Martin]

24. Just like the NDP. These vile attacks should

tell much about Bernie.

[Hekate]

27. I HOPE THAT IS ON 100 SMART PHONES& CNN/MSNBC!

My gods, can they not hear themselves?

[intheflow]

28. Sound like bullshit.

Oh, I don't deny it probably happened. But xenophobia doesn't characterize any of the Sanders supporters I know. However, I wouldn't put it past a bunch of Republicans to put on Sanders shirts and do this kind of shit.

[seaglass]

29. Are you saying Republicans participated in the Dem caucus for Sanders? n/t

[intheflow]

33. Well, I was trying to be nice

and not accuse Clinton supporters of dressing up like Sanders supporters. Like they pretended to dress like a nurses union in Nevada. But have it your way.

*Edited to add, I found this post on the greatest page. I didn't realize I was replying in the Clinton group. My apologies for coming in here.

[seaglass]

35. lol. That is a stretch, no wonder why you wouldn't say that, it sounds goofy. n/t

[intheflow]

36. Well, the whole story turned out to be bullshit,

so my opening line of "It sounds like bullshit" still stands.

[seaglass]

37. Not the case. But I suggest you go argue it out in GDP. n/t

[intheflow]

38. Agreed.

Though I'd already apologized to posting in here. So thanks for continuing to argue with me!

[Rose Siding]

31. They need to try harder to act like Democrats

That's how the other party acts

[Walk away]

32. Just as classy as their data stealing candidate!

I predict that Sanders' supporters are going to be the biggest losers when this primary season is over. The entire country will begin to turn their backs on them and they will start to scrape the Feel the Bern stickers off their cars.
