    How many time does it take to not be her fault and finally fall on the electorate?

    It takes a village when? How long after the baby is born?

      You mean the electorate that was voting for Bernie en masse but Wasserman-Schulz and the big donors didn’t want that so they threw the rest of the primaries to go Hillarys way? The electorate that was disenfranchised by their own party?

        Oh holy Jesus yes keep saying it was all stolen from you. The primaries are rigged, the election was stolen!

        You are a pawn! Being used for adrenochrome!

        Bernie had the rug ripped out from him! Thats why he worked with the DNC. Thats why Bernie says the opposite of you. Cause they fucked him!

          Bernie was fucked by the establishment stranglehold over mainstream media, inherent flaws in the primary system, and some truly underhanded tactics. There has been no good evidence of any kind of tampering with the votes.

          Bernie has always been a pragmatist. The progressive movement has nothing to gain by him obsessing over sour grapes. Contrast that with Hillary who will live the rest of her life locked into the day she lost.

            Compare your comment to sour grapes….

            “Bernie” is a role you like to play. Bernie isn’t a person he’s your grievance.

              I was explaining why Bernie moved on. I’d love to move on but it seems like every few months Hillary pops up in the media with another sneer.

              Anyways, given where all the establishment fuckery of the past 50 years has led us at this particular moment, I feel like a little anger is justified, no?

                  How would I know? The point is that the best thing he can do with his position in the Senate is to look forward. He’s not the type to pursue his individual interests at the expense of the cause.

                  This is something a lot of my compatriots on the left don’t seem to get. Good activists don’t make good politicians, and good politicians don’t make good activists. We need both. Bernie is a politician, and I’m not.

                  I actually have moved on in a lot of ways, except that I want us to learn from past mistakes so we don’t repeat them. I want every person in America to understand how the establishment (of both parties) manipulates the national conversation so we quit falling for the same bullshit.
