Sarah Silverman to Booing 'Bernie or Bust' Supporters: 'You're Being Ridiculous'

While democrats continue to struggle for unity at the Democratic National Convention, Sarah Silverman – a Bernie Sanders supporter who will be voting for Hillary Clinton – tried her best to bring everyone together.

As Silverman announced on Monday night that she "will vote for Hillary with gusto," shouts of "Bernie! Bernie!" from the Sanders supporters clashed with "Hill-a-ry!" "Hill-a-ry!" from the Clinton supporters.

Silverman's comments didn't go over well with "Bernie or bust" supporters who immediately starting booing and continued their chants in response to her unabashed declaration.

"To the Bernie or Bust People, you're being ridiculous," she responded, as she was joined on stage by Minnesota Senator Al Franken.



Sanders supporters weren't done though, as they offered more "Bernie!" shouts, which proved difficult to quiet.

Throughout the day's speeches, Sanders' delegates routinely and robustly jeered every mention of Clinton – a display that left Kim Netherton of Colorado sucking lozenges. "No confidence!" Netherton, 32, shouted as one Democrat after another stood at the lectern and celebrated Clinton as "the next president of the United States" and "the first woman president."

"I have no trust that she's going to do anything progressive," Netherton told PEOPLE between shouts. "They can pretend that we don't exist and that everything is normal and happy and unified, but it's not true and those blinders are going to lose the White House to Donald Trump."

Those in favor of the Vermont senator's candidacy also took the streets earlier in the day, protesting with signs that read "nominate Sanders or lose to Trump," and "We are the 99 percent."
