It got earth-shakingly loud at the Democratic convention after comedian Sarah Silverman announced that she was voting for Hillary Clinton and when she called the Bernie or Bust people ridiculous.
Silverman said, “I will vote for Hillary with gusto as I continue to be inspired and moved to action by the ideals set forth by Bernie who will never stop fighting for us. I am proud to be part of Bernie’s movement, and a vital part of that movement is making absolutely sure that Hillary Clinton is our next President Of The United States.”
She added, “Can I just say to the Bernie or Bust people, you’re being ridiculous.”

A comedian delivered the best unity speech of the night. The Bernie or Bust folks need to realize that it is over, but then again, for these folks, it isn’t about Bernie Sanders. The Bernie or Bust folks are really the same old Clinton-hating crowd with a new nickname.
The Bernie or Bust folks won’t even listen to Bernie, so there is no chance that they’ll listen to Sarah Silverman.
