The key thing to know? Americans were dumb as fuck to not go all in for Hillary Clinton, and thus giving Trump and Republicans 3 damn Surpreme Court Justices for free.
Or, the democrats could have rallied behind Bernie because a majority of dem voters resonated with his messaging instead Hillary’s. I maintain, that Trump was as much Dems fault as it was everyone else’s.
He didn't win the nomination. Then a bunch of Bernie supporters made the same mistake that so many did in 2000 and did a protest vote or didn't vote at all and we got Trump. It's almost comical how easily the right pulls this shit and gets their candidate to win.
wait wait wait. Lets not forget dems use super delegates so winning is a lot like an electoral college victory. The party is asking for disloyalty under that undemocratic system. I will grant though it is supposed to be to keep someone like trump from running on the party ticket.
More Hillary voters voted for McCain than Bernie voters that voted for Trump.
Stop pretending that your shitty candidate is owed votes. This is juts like when Dems say that Green party voters should've voted for them. If you want that, then actually try to earn said votes.
Then he should have won the nomination. Maybe by asking the people who they'd prefer to go to the presidential election. We could call that "primary elections" and Bernie Sanders should win one maybe.
