Anecdotal evidence. Meanwhile Soros is funding protests against Trump's presidency and public+private property is being destroyed & violence incited. No one talks about the Clinton thugs that beat up an old Trump supporter and stole his car... because he supported a different candidate. One side of the spectrum aren't the only victims, none of this "holier than thou" bs.

The first strategy was Bernie winning the Democratic Primaries. He had the swag, the charisma, the cuddly Grandpa mentality. His appeal was the same as that of Biden: Go-lucky, real, passionate. Unfortunately he was running against the Clinton Machine/DNC and he got churned out like a hunk of beef.

The second strategy was Bernie, yes THAT Bernie, again. He should have been the VP even though Hillary leans center way more than progressive. Her inability to negotiate was her undoing. It's not just about the Bernie voters that refused to vote Hillary, it was about their enthusiasm. Like it or not they were a ground-game unlike anything anyone's ever seen. The ridiculous amount of donations, the millions of phone calls, the millions of doors knocked. Their passion was most needed against Trump. 

Yes, Bernie campaigned for Hillary during the general election, but it was no longer the same. Bernie used to be their guy, their champion that could fight against the 1%, for $15 minimum wage, free healthcare, and free tuition. He couldn't do that while campaigning for Hillary without being on the ballot because everyone knew she didn't really care about any of that.

So what was Hillary left with? No passion, no drive, no enthusiasm, no Bernie, no Presidency. She was too proud, and that, ladies and gents, is what Trump exposed to perfection.

This is proven to be true over and over again! The DNC brought this on themselves, and on us. They just ruined the country they spent the last 8 years building. Bernie was the only weapon they had.

Damn election, masses of Americans now seem to want to move to Canada (and new Zealand or Australia) so much their website has been crashing. My dream to move to Canada could stay like that if they follow suit

If the DNC doesn't drop this whole identity-based politics mantra then we're looking at 8 years of trump.

being inclusive means speaking on behalf of all people- not just the minorities.

People mix politic and professionalization of politic. Here's an example of professionalization of politic :

Politics isn't about to put a ballot every 5 years. Politic is "I'm the only one to know what I want".

When the unexplainable happens, people love pointing fingers so at least they have some sort of a scapegoat and who else is a better candidate than blaming "white males the patriarchy" for the worlds problems, that's just so not true it baffles me the left can be this regressive and flat out ignorant. Along with the DNC fuckup, I believe It's the reason liberals lost the election. These people are to the left what the tea party is to the right therefor it's harder and harder to find a middle ground in today's politics, it could have gone either way, it's a pendulum.

I get WHY people want to say "Soros funded protests" - Jewish boogeyman, yada yada - I have no idea how you seem to BELIEVE it. Do you think putting on a bandanna and yelling in the street is expensive, or something?

Soros is an interesting character. When you hear stories about his meddling, the first instinct is to scream "conspiracy theory!" but it's all out in the open and he makes no secrecy of it himself.

Him being a jewish boogeyman has nothing to do with it. He is a billionaire who ruins nations.
