"But Friedman, an economist at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst, says hell vote for Hillary Clinton in the Democratic presidential primary.
I support Clinton, he said in an interview on Thursday. I donate $10 a month to Clinton. I remember the woman who said, womens rights are human rights. I think she did a great job as secretary of state. I agree with Bernie on economic issues, but there are other issues.

Usurper
..An usurper is an illegitimate or controversial claimant to power
In fact the hateful, sexist, racist language and money driven corporate fake "news" that created Trump and company also created Sanders. There is no fundamental differences between BS supporters and Dump supporters.
