Utter bullshit. We progressives are only 30% of the Dem party. We never had the votes.
Bernie lost for many reasons.
1/ started campaign late
2/ LOST THE PRIMARY DUE TO LACK OF VOTES
Donald Drumpf a man who opened his presidential campaign by calling Mexicans “rapists” bested Mitt Romney’s share of the Latino vote by 8 percentage points. He performed better among black voters than his 2012 predecessor, and he swept four Rust Belt states that President Barack Obama carried twice ? Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan and Wisconsin under a harsher economy than we face today. Hillary Clinton won the popular vote, which should matter, but does not.
FACTS MIGHT MAKE YOU MAD:
The exit polls provide some clarity: A significant chunk of Obama voters flipped to Drumpf. Drumpf won 10 percent of voters who approve of Obama’s presidency and 23 percent of voters who think the next president should “be more liberal,” according to CNN data. Drumpf significantly outperformed Romney among union households. He did 14 points better than Romney among whites without a college degree, according to The New York Times, and 16 points better among households with less than $30,000 in income. The Drumpf Democrat turns out not to be a myth, but a meaningful constituency that just cost Clinton the presidency.
THANKS BERNIE WHINERS, white women, white men, THE FAILED 4TH ESTATE, reagan type Dems, voter suppression and the lack of a 50 state strategy for the Dems.
