CNN ^ | July 5th, 2016 | By Gregory Krieg

(CNN)It's not only Donald Trump and Republicans expressing their indignation at the FBI's decision not to recommend charges against Hillary Clinton over her handling of classified materials on a private email server.

The Tuesday announcement also set off a torrent of anger and frustration among some of Bernie Sanders' most diehard supporters, a vocal minority who have been agitating for an indictment of the former secretary of state in the hopes it would vault the Vermont senator to the Democratic nomination.

Good idea to stay well clear of Philadelphia later this month. Chicago ‘68 redux?

The common denominator between Trump and Sanders supporters is with trade and the mass offshoring of what once used to be American jobs to take advantage of lower labor costs.

Whether this can be exploited by Trump to bring over Sanders' supporters in large numbers remain to be seen. For there are a lot of differences otherwise.

Who can blame them?

The system is rigged for Hillary and Hillary’s above the law under the Obomination Administration.

Note the “vocal minority” remark to downplay the significance. Notice how they never do this to BLM.

Gutless Bernie, didn’t make it a matter worth talking about then, why now? He’s pathetic.

many (not all) of Bernie’s supporters want to clean up the corrupt slime in WashDC...

Mr. Trump can attract a pretty good number of D votes if he continues his “let’s clean up the damned government” theme
