Nina Turner in the second night of the convention. Another actor, Shailene Woodley, was spotted in the crowd. “So we’re here to say that this is upsetting to us”. But this week, amid the DNC email scandal which revealed that the party was clearly organized against Sanders from the very beginning, Sarandon has returned with a vengeance. “And this was just the topping for the whole thing”.

“Whether they were hacked by Russian Federation or aliens doesn’t really matter”, Sarandon said on Wednesday.
But, according to Turner’s account, when she arrived at the Democratic convention on Tuesday, she was told by Bernie Sanders that her appearance had been canceled by the DNC. The stories that her credentials were stripped are false. “Bernie Sanders”, according to a press release. They repeatedly asserted that the Clinton camp had insulted Turner and that this was yet another slight of the entire Sanders movement.
What happens next? At the press conference, her supporters demanded that somehow the Clinton campaign had to remedy the situation and find a way to honor Turner.
The actress had an absolute nightmare at the Democratic National Convention. “She has been one of Bernie’s strongest supporters”. “We stand in solidarity with her”. “She gave her skin in the game to help Barack Obama get elected in Ohio”.
“For anyone who thought this was a cult of personality, you’re wrong”, Sarandon told The Young Turks in a video posted Sunday. “This is what this is about”.
Sarandon must have not agreed with Monday’s DNC speakers, many of whom (including Sanders) urged voters to get behind Hillary Clinton.
“There’s a traditional Democratic establishment, and they wear suits and ties a lot of the time”, Fox said.
Sanders Delegate Werner Lange had some choice words for the DNC, telling Sputnik it “was not a convention at all”. You’ve seen Bernie Sanders go out and endorse Hillary Clinton.

“Of course there was disappointment, but I think it was really imperative for him to be able to speak and for his surrogates, and not only surrogates, but his delegates, to be able to go…” The former Sanders supporter added that she would vote for Clinton “with gusto”.
