He still wants to believe in the Bern and that Bernie has a shot. But at least he's tamping down on Bernie or Bust talk:
"Another day, another prominent supporter of Bernie Sanders begins the provisional pivot toward Hillary Clinton. In a week which has already seen Sanders endorser Robert Reich urging his fans to tamp down their anti-Hillary rhetoric, and Sanders donor Patton Oswalt suggesting that any Bernie fan who doesn’t support Hillary if she’s then nominee is a “child,” now the host of progressive talk show The Young Turks is steering his own Bernie-leaning fans in a similar direction."
"Well, at least one of The Young Turks hosts is coming around. After Jimmy Dore went on a bender in which he referred to Hillary Clinton as a fascist and made the bizarre argument that the nation would somehow be better off under Donald Trump, he was swiftly rebuked by host Cenk Uygur. The popular Uygur bluntly stated “I’ve been to too many Holocaust museums” by way of making the argument against Trump’s racist and scapegoating policies, and making clear that Bernie fans would be far better off by voting for Hillary if she’s the nominee."

There are too many Berners going full Susan Sarandon. Even a friend of mine on Twitter-we don't talk too much lately since the Dem primary started. We used to bond as we were both Obama supporters. He said Hillary is as bad as Trump.
I wanted to ask him: do you think Hillary is as bad as Hitler? Are there any limits to how much you want to demonize the woman?
At least Uygur has some sense of reality:
"Uygur doesn’t seem to think the democratic primary race is quite over, preferring to see the results of next week’s delegate-rich Pennsylvania contest first. But by already laying the clear groundwork for an eventual pivot to Hillary Clinton once she wraps up the nomination, he’s become just the latest prominent Bernie fan to head in that direction since she won New York decisively. Robert Reich diplomatically did the same after her New York win, and Patton Oswalt put it more bluntly."
