Hmmm let’s see he’s been advocating for basic human rights (including reformed healthcare) for his entire political career? What is wrong with you?

You’re right - debating healthcare isn’t productive at alllllll - it couldn’t possibly start a national conversation in the hopes that it would sway the current administration. It also couldn’t possibly bring to light the fact that the republicans don’t have a replacement for Obamacare.....nor could it help later in a…
I used the coronation line all the time. That’s what you get when 9/10 people couldn’t name a third person running in the Democratic primary and the DNC demonstrably favors one candidate over the other.
You are so stupid, he would have beat Trump and you blame HIM. MAYBE IT WAS THE PEOPLE TOO STUPID TI SEE HILLARY WAS NOT POPULAR YET STILL PUSHED HER THROUGH THAT ARE THE MORONS.
The white working class WAS forgotten and ignored. And the coastal elites’ complete comfort with that is precisely why somebody like Trump was able to waltz into those areas and do well. He may have been full of shit and lied that he’d make their problems better, but at least he acknowledged that they had problems in…
As opposed to...Hillary? Who after the Inauguration has completely noped out of everything? I mean damn, Bernie is far far far from perfect, but I found it rather astonishing how during the Women’s March, the Muslim Ban, and EO after EO, she’s pretty much MIA.
You realize he is still a Senator, right — who also sits on the Senate Health, Education, Labour and Pensions committee? I’m going to leave aside his high-profile health proposals during the campaign phase, because apparently running against someone in the primaries is akin to cold-blooded sabotage and that taints…
Actually.... Poc and woc like myself are very mad at Hillary for losing to a home alone extra. It’s not bernies fault she didn’t campaign in critical states. Also as a Latina, I’m pissed at her because her Latino outreach was garbage. She threw pennies at some Latinos and they had to make find their way to make ends…
Thank you for being the voice of reason in this clusterfuck comment thread.
Bernie Sanders went to the Women’s March. Hillary Clinton did not. And equating misogyny and racism as the same struggle shows your further ignorance on the subject.
McCain’s percentage of the total vote: 45.7%
Lol, a Hillary Clinton supporter complaining about delegitimizing election results? How much proof do we have that purges of voter rolls, plots of how to attack a candidate’s religion and leaked debate questions vs. proof of Russian hacking?
I honestly don’t. I think my answers are straightforward. We have a difference of perception. You’re suggesting that because I didn’t lobotomize myself and drool in support of Hillary that I contributed to her loss, even though I openly supported her. That’s shaky ground to stand on.
You’re a dumb shit.
This is a quite a litmus test. I don’t mean this as a personal attack, but these questions demonstrate to me that you don’t really have much sense of why Hillary lost or how voters think. I’ve answered several below:
I don’t even know what the argument was, but I’m happy for you. I know that feeling like you won an online argument is worth like 10,000 liberal points.
People don’t give this stuff a lot of thought. We need constituents in swing states and Republican states getting involved to protect ACA. People instinctively think “they’ll hate the Socialist,” but they ignore the fact that those tend to be the states where Sanders won in the primary.
The huge numbers of people who voted for Obama in the past two elections and then stayed home on voting day did not do so because of Sanders. I realize you don’t want to accept this, but I don’t know what else to tell you.
Jezebel is not a left wing site — it’s a Hillary site.
