Hillary Clinton flexed her Hollywood show biz muscle Tuesday night at the Democratic National Convention, with Meryl Streep, Alicia Keys and an all-star music video touting her candidacy for president.
On Wednesday evening here, erstwhile Hollywood backers of Bernie Sanders struck back with a press conference in which they
aired the latest grievances of the defeated Vermont Senator.
Sanders appeared to bow out gracefully Tuesday, coming to a microphone on the floor of the Wells Fargo Center to offer a unanimous slate of delegates from his home state in support of making Clinton the first woman persidential nominee of a major party. But one day later, Sanders’ fierce acolytes — including Susan Sarandon, Shailene Woodley, Danny Glover and
Rosario Dawson — told more than 100 members of the media that Sanders had been wronged one more time, even as he capitulated to Clinton’s
insurmountable delegate lead.
