And people say Bernie supporters/the progressive wing is unreasonable and spiteful. Jesus Christ, this rabid Bernie derangement syndrome that the DNC and many Democratic voters have is going to hand Trump a second term.


Giving that Bernie's base is so insignificant and fringe in the political world that nothing will be lose of consequence. The Bernie Bros will forever keep raging against a system by claiming how the elite is rigging the primary, while they barely get out to vote for Bernie or other supposedly "progressive". If the Bernie crew wants to have a place at the table appeal to our base or jump off the ship.

Huh. I thought Bernie cost Clinton the election.

PS: What if I told you that "POC" is not the base of the Democratic Party - at least in many states?


Oh, Bernie was part of the smear campaign that help Clinton get defeated. I just think misogyny and Russia had a greater overall impact on deflecting Hillary from becoming president.


You'll be right in your statement, though it's the people that needs have to be most listen to if you want to win the party nomination.

Hillary lost because she was an awful campaigner, her team was incompetent, and the majority of Americans (rightfully) didn't like or trust her. Quit making excuses for a shitty candidate.


4 Million people voted for Hillary in the general election. She was the popular candidate winner.

Russia intervened and hack our ballots through changing votes that were cast for Hillary Clinton to votes for Donald Trump. Russia help is the definitive reason Hillary lost, nothing to do with how she campaigned, seeing that Trump campaign was incompetent enough that staffers barely even target certain key states.

This seems like an incredibly stupid move for literally everyone involved in making it. It doesn't functionally actually do anything that could benefit them, and optics-wise it pisses off a substantial portion of the party base.

Anecdotal to be sure, but I've read a lot of comments on twitter that Sanders being allowed to run in the Democratic Party primaries while remaining an independent also pisses off a substantial portion of the party base.


That portion of the base is who votes in primaries, not "independents" who can't bothered to register with the party. Better to cater to people that care to vote then those who can't even support the party in vulnerable times.
