Samantha Bee goes after 'Bernie or Busters' like no one else
Watch Next

Hillary Clinton captured the Democratic presidential nomination last week with 2,814 delegates, including 609 super delegates. But some Bernie supporters aren't willing to say goodbye to their candidate.

During the Democratic National Convention last week in Philadelphia, Bernie Busters booed a long list of convention speakers that supported Hillary Clinton, including civil rights pioneer John Lewis. So Bee sent correspondent Allana Harkin to the convention to figure out what, exactly, these Bernie supporters wanted.

When Harkin asked one passionate young supporter what Clinton could do to earn his vote, the eloquent protestor staked his claims clearly:

"Nothing. Crawl in a hole. Yeah, drop to hell where she belongs."

While Clinton seems eager to capture the support of the Bernie or Busters, it is unclear if she is willing to crawl in a hellhole to do so.
