Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders said Wednesday he’ll campaign actively this fall to send Democrat Hillary Clinton to the White House and bolster the party’s congressional candidates, with swings already planned in New Hampshire, New York and Washington state.

And while he has policy disagreements with Clinton, Sanders urged those who backed his defeated bid for the Democratic presidential nomination to not defect to the Green Party’s Jill Stein or Libertarian Gary Johnson.

Both of the Bernie fools I know are now supporting Hillary.

I guess he has to pay for his new vacation home somehow.

Believe me, along with the perks he now is enjoying, were the initial threats that were directed at him upfront by the Hillary henchmen, telling ole Bernie that he better play ball or else. With Hillary’s thugs, it’s the stick first, and then the carrot.

The Rats rallying around their kind - liars, crooks, payoffs, dusting off their enemies.

Enjoy that new vacation home, Bernie. Just watch your back.
