At 3:28 p.m. today, in the year of our Lord 2016, Bernie Sanders retweeted a song called “Superdelegate” by a one Mr. Lukas Autry Nelson. After several listens, I can say with total confidence that the song is very, very bad. Demonstrably bad. Why-is-blood-streaming-from-my-ears bad. Senator Sanders, no man who makes this sort of judgment call should ever have his finger on the trigger. I’m sorry, but it’s time to step down.



Please, don’t take my word for it. Listen for yourself to the terror that Bernie Sanders actively chose to bestow upon his millions of Twitter followers.

And then there are the lyrics:

Now is the time to see the truth

To see the world the way it moves

Is this person gonna listen to me?

Have they taken it away from me? They hide behind the money flow

That’s just the way, the way it goes

Will this world just wither and die or

Will we find the way to survive? Change your mind, superdelegate

You have to find just where we’re at

You’re a fool

You can be bought by who you represent Superdelegate

Ahhhhh-haaa!

Superdelegate Now is the time, it’s happening now

There’s nothing wrong with going with the flow

But I’m tired of waiting around

Just seeing if corruption is deep in the ground And I don’t know why I’m here

Why do we all have to live in fear?

There’s a way to get around this mess

I hope you don’t, I hope you don’t forget

I, on the other hand, hope you can forget. Because no one deserves this, not even you.

Bernie Sanders, sir—you disgust me.
