BREAKING: Bernie Sanders Lost

[sheshe2]

Bernie Sanders lost the primary. A democratic election where both you and I voted. Guess what: I even voted for him. Not because I thought he would be a better president, but because I thought he did, in fact, have a better chance of winning the election. Would he have won? Who knows. There’s no way to say what may or may not have happened. He may have gotten more whites, but less minorities. You don’t have a crystal ball to declare he would have won. That’s nonsense.

But here’s a breaking story for you: he lost. In a landslide. Over 3.5 million votes, by a margin of 12%. That’s how the Democratic Party which you purport to support decides it’s nominees: democratic process. He failed to convince voters, and you failed to bring enough people over to his side.

And instead of gracefully conceding when it was apparent that he had no path to victory, he continued to weigh on Hillary Clinton’s campaign for the presidency like a rusty anchor. Some of his supporters continued to do the same, ambushing her, spreading RW conspiracy theories and memes. Bashing her character, with nonsense. Declaring she was not liberal enough when she was running on the most liberal platform in history. And then, not voting.
