Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar lead crowd booing Hillary Clinton
he Democratic primary got even more raucous this week, ahead of the big Iowa caucuses, when at a rally for Bernie Sanders on Friday night, the gathered crowd of supporters booed Hillary Clinton loudly, led and and encouraged by Rep. Rashida Tlaib.
In the must-see clip, Tlaib eggs the crowd on as booing starts at the mention of the former Secretary of State. “You all know, I can’t be quiet, no, we’re going to boo,” said Tlaib. “The haters will shut up on Monday when we win.” To her left, Reps. Pramila Jayapal and Ilhan Omar were laughing it up.
Of course that moment spread on social media like wildfire, and there were a lot of what we like to blandly refer to as “reactions” across the political spectrum.
Some on the left were very offended and put off.
While others, on the further left, were absolutely thrilled.
It even made it to the White House.
Kellyanne Conway ✔ @KellyannePolls
This is amazing.
A particularly interesting reaction was from controversial Women’s March founder Linda Sarsour. Who sent the clip by reply to a tweet describing Clinton’s intentions as “evil.”
Shaun King ✔ @shaunking
Everybody needs a @RashidaTlaib on their team.
I love this soooooo much

I understand why they're doing it. Hillary doing interviews talking about how "no one likes Bernie". Is the bitch in high school? She should grow up.

WTF is this nonsense??
Bernie Sanders, friend to Russian autocracy, the NRA, and enemy to the idea of Hillary Clinton beating Trump is NOT A LEFTIST! He and his deranged bros and acolytes are ANARCHISTS, and the brain dead press does us a disservice by continuing that fiction Bernie Sanders is to the left of ANYONE!

But we’re supposed to pretend these people behaving the same way as Deplorables are *democrats*? They’re not. Sanders is not. They’ve done jack shit but compromise the Democratic party and have done so while we’re under threat of being completely overthrown by an authoritarian coup. These scumbags are as treasonous as the congressional repukes.

I can't wait until 2024 because Sanders will finally FINALLY be too fucking old to run, even to his most ardent supporters. It can't come soon enough that the ancient old asshole is no longer on the political stage.
Hopefully Tlaib and Omar will be out of office by then, as well. God, what a couple of showboating idiots.

Want to know how much Sanders cares about the party? He's endorsed 9 out of 239 representatives. He cares shit about the party.

Michael Moore defends Rashida Tlaib’s booing of Hillary Clinton
“So proud of my longtime friend from Michigan who spoke the truth last night at the Bernie rally in Clive, Iowa. The audience booed Hillary, then somebody tried to shoosh them, and #Rashida said don’t shoosh them,” the liberal filmmaker said in a Twitter post. “Boo Hillary and anyone else who doesn’t speak the truth.”
Moore also shared an image of the pair smiling together.

Michael Moore is ONLY relevant because of Trump!
Trump is the BEST thing that ever happened to his big FAT MOUTH and bank account. He becomes INSTANTLY irrelevant the moment a Democrat is elected (NOT Bernie Sanders!). Do you REALLY think he's praying for his day in the sun to be over? He isn't. He's a snake in the grass, and the best friend a Republican could ever have. His HDS (Hillary Derangement Syndrome) is on par with that of David Sirota!

R52 Actually Bernie would probably outperform Biden in Michigan and possibly PA. A serious question as to whether Bernie could win WI, and would likely lose Iowa. And there is reasonable concern about Bernie's performance in some other swing states - North Carolina, VA, FLA, AZ.
Whoever wins the nomination, I'll give 10% of my income to, and volunteer to call, walk precincts, etc. There's a dictator who needs to be replaced. After we move beyond him, then we can have a more detailed conversation about progressive policies - systemic or incremental improvements etc.

So the people who ardently voted for Jill Stein, the people who are STILL to this day saying that there's no difference between Democrats and Republicans, are actually going to try and play the "you HAVE to vote for Sanders" tagline?
Three and a half years too late to now all of a sudden care so much. It's because of you assholes that Trump is even in the White House in the first place.
[quote]There's a dictator who needs to be replaced.
Well, who fucking helped to put him there in the first place? Had these people used their fucking brains and not consumed FOX news propaganda, we wouldn't be here. They don't get to claim moral high ground. If Bernie wants moderate democrats votes, he's going to have to do a lot of groveling.

But at least those people have actually achieved something in the past 10 years--what have you done, Michael?

What's funny is that Hillary was accused all throughout 2016 as being too friendly to the Muslims, and it was stated as one of the many reasons why Trump got elected.
But now these same people are confronting her daughter and blaming her for a massacre halfway across the world (and filming it and posting it to Twitter), and are now booing her at Democratic rallies. Bite the hand that feeds you, indeed.
