For reference, some of the top threads right now include:

- "Bernie Sanders: Clinton Foundation Is A 'Problem,' Took Money From 'Dictatorships'"
- "Sanders Tells LA Coliseum Rally He is Best Choice to Defeat Trump | It’s not just the polls, Sanders added. Since mid-May, he has drawn more than 211,000 Californians to hear him at rallies that are far bigger and more boisterous than Clinton’s."
- "Million Supporter March for Bernie at the DNC National Convention"
- "Clinton's Speech Shows that Only Sanders is Fit for the Presidency"


I'm guessing "Why Sanders is the real presumptive nominee"

"Why Sanders actually won/Clinton actually lost last night"
"Clinton's win in (insert state here) was only made possible by corruption/voter fraud"
"Sanders' win in (insert state here) proves that he is the strongest candidate"
"Why Sanders' concession/endorsement of Clinton doesn't matter"
"Sanders' attacks on Trump in speech demonstrate why HE should be the nominee"

Probably someone declaring with great pomp and drama that they won't support a corrupt, lying cheating war criminal and that the fact that the nomination was stolen from Bernie only makes the flames of their passion for justice burn ever brighter.  Second topic will be some D-list celebrity begging Bernie to run an independent campaign.

"We take this to the convention and further if necessary! Phonebank like crazy - Bernie needs you more than ever now!!!"


Like watching Fox after Obama won in 08 and 12, I still get a pleasure reading that place and watching TYT after a Bernie defeat.

The really sad thing about r/SandersForPresident (and r/politics for that matter) is that you can still find a few sensible and rational posts but only if you sort by controversial.

Probably stuff about how Sanders really won and we need to campaign for him in DC.

However, I'm mostly interested in what happens after he officially drops out and endorses Clinton.

There were no meltdown on Fox in 2008. After the results came in everyone just sort of went, "Wow, the country just elected a black president" in a sort of feel-good way.

In Fox's defense I do remember them saying that in '08. 

Doesn't make up for any of their behavior for the following 8 years, of course...

"If Bernie wins 1000% of the vote in Washington DC and in caucus states with remaining conventions, he can still win the pledged delegates. Let's make Clinton have negative viability!"

"Why Bernie Mathematically Won The Most Pledged Delegates"

"First, you take into account voter fraud in New York, Nevada, Ohio, and Arizona. Then you switch all the Clinton delegates from California to Sanders because he's more "electable," and everybody I know in California was voting for Sanders anyway. Then you factor in the fact that Bernie would win Iowa if the caucus was held today. Of course, you also have to remember that states that will vote R in the GE don't count, unless they went for Sanders. And if the media had given Sanders fair treatment then he would have won Massachusetts. We also find Sanders would sweep more states if they were open primaries. And we'll easily win DC with 100% if we keep phone banking them hard. Also, Clinton will be indicted tomorrow according to Breitbart so the point is moot."

Most downvoted reply: "But didn't Sanders drop out and endorse Clinton?"

Well as of right now it's:

"Dennis Kucinich: '[The AP] is supposed to report the news, not cook it in a kitchen & serve it up.'"

Followed by:

"Jane to Bernie Before His Speech: 'They're with you, They're still with you.'"

and

"Bernie was right, Clinton will fall between 155-210 pledged delegates short of avoiding a #contestedconvention."

"Winning X small white state should be an argument for overturning the popular vote+delegate count"
"Bernie is actually winning the popular vote because caucus!!!"
"Thanks X random county for voting for Bernie"
