She's a liar and a criminal. If you don't stand by your views, you're worthless imo. It's unforgivable. He's not gonna transform the democratic party by selling out to them and supporting every idiotic move Hillary makes, he's supporting the crooked party that had the biggest hand in him losing the nomination and I don't see Hillary beating Trump. She's just too awful and Bernie supporting her doesn't make some of us want to vote for her. It honestly kills any shred of faith I had left in our shoddy illusion of a democracy. The whole system is simply screwed up. Politics is about compromise. Being highly idealistic will get you nowhere. This isn't Burger King, you can't always have it your way.

The whole system is simply screwed up. His views are, and have always been, that we can make the Democratic Party more progressive. He was always been for free college, for taxing the top 1%, for better universal healthcare. That's still what he is working towards, he is still standing by his views by fighting to change the Democratic Party from within. He clearly isn't supporting "every idiotic move Hillary makes" to say that is frankly ignorant. Look at what Bernie is achieving by supporting Hillary. He is FIGHTING for what he has always stood for, this is just further evidence of this. If Bernie didn't support Hillary, then **** the working class and middle class americans that need a college degree. They get nothing. Instead, Bernie continues to fight within the Democratic party, he continues to push Hillary left and he manages to make PROGRESS for his ideals that he campaigned for. You say you want change but you don't want to fight for it. You just expect it to happen. I get you are frustrated, but this is what progress looks like. It's slow, messy and sometimes painful. At least Bernie is continuing to work to better lives and fight a progressive cause, you seem to have given up. Your approach leads to NO progress.
