Actress and anti-Trump activist Alyssa Milano was relentlessly mocked, when she begged her followers not to criticize any Democrat 2020 candidate.
Breitbart reported that Milano, who over the past year has become one of Hollywood’s most influential left-wing voices, has yet to formally endorse a candidate, but recently gushed over former Vice President Joe Biden as someone who could offer “dignified leadership.”
Last week, she claimed to have been attacked by supporters of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VM) over Biden’s appearance on her #SorryNotSorry podcast.
“I expected to get hate-tweets from Trump supporters on this. Sadly, most of the hate-tweets are from Bernie supporters,” she complained. “I’m cool with it but let’s get it all out quickly. We won’t beat Trump if we don’t come together. If not for a common candidate, then please, for a common goal.”
Milano took to Twitter and tweeted out, “#IPledge to not speak negatively about anyone running for President. Do you?”

Angry Twitter users were quick to respond:
“Uhh that’s what the primaries are for. I’ll support the Dem nominee but now is the time to debate their merits.”

“Critique is actually both the point of primary season and our collective responsibility as voters. That responsibility is higher for those of us with several forms of unearned privilege, like me and like you. It’s highly disturbing that you don’t or won’t know these things.”

“Absolutely not. People should never choose the lesser of evils, shouldn’t follow their party even though the candidate is corrupt. Our democracy is broken, and a traitor has illegally seized power. We need to stand behind our ethics to defeat him, not abandon them out of fear.”
