In reply to the discussion: JPR folks out themselves. They dont want to believe in Russian interference because of... [View all]stevenleser
(32,886 posts)189. You know what the bottom line on JPR folks is Jim? Its simple...
Everyone knew and understood everything they needed to know about the JPR folks by the time they were 5 years old.
By the time we were all 5 years old, we all had one of our friends not get their way and do the wholetake your ball and go home tantrum.
Most of us evolved past those kind of toddler-esque tantrums by the time we hit our teens.
The JPR folks never did.
Bernie didnt win the nomination so they took their ball and went home, and blew it up into this whole thing against Hillary to disguise the fact that its all about their tantrum.
The majority of Bernie supporters did not have this tantrum and supported and voted for Hillary. Those that never matured beyond 5 years old hang their hats at JPR.
Its really that simple.
