Sanders isn’t advocating disruption, but his supporters are showing up in droves to protest the nomination of Hillary Clinton.

“I know emotions are running high right now, but I think people really have to consider the implications of what a [Donald] Trump presidency would mean for those of us who support the kind of agenda that Bernie Sanders has laid out for the country”, Weaver told The Hill.

Wasserman Schultz resigned from her DNC post after a massive DNC e-mail leak revealed she and other DNC personnel undermined the Sanders campaign in favor of helping Hillary Clinton during the Democratic primaries. “Any objective observer will conclude that – based on her ideas and her leadership – Hillary Clinton must become the next president of the United States”.

“No, never, not in a million years, no. I wouldn’t vote for her for dog catcher”, said Melissa Arab, of Shelby Township, Michigan.

Comedian Sarah Silverman scolded chanting supporters of Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders at the opening session of the Democratic National Convention Monday night. He was on hand for the Democratic National Convention in Denver in 2008, and attended President Obama’s State of the Union address in 2012.

It was a day of boos and jeers in the wake of a new email scandal involving now former Democratic National Committee Chairperson Debbie Wasserman Schultz.

“I have decided that in the interest of making sure that we can start the Democratic convention on a high note that I am not going to gavel in the convention”, Wasserman Schultz said.

“We’re going to see how the convention runs and then we’ll see”, Comfort replied.

From global warming to Supreme Court picks to immigration, Mr. Sanders said the areas he agrees with Mrs. Clinton swamp those where he disagrees, while Mr. Trump stands against him. “‘We have got to elect Hillary Clinton and Tim Kaine, ‘ Sanders told a gathering of delegates inside the Pennsylvania Convention Center, a message that was met with loud boos”.
