He ran as a democrat in 2016 and that is what we are talking about.
You are just trying to divert from how undemocratic the process was
that scuttled him.
It probably scuttled the best chance the DNC had to win the white
house too. People who hated Hillary were not ever going to change
their mind. Bernie may have flipped a couple of red states. He was
running against Washington "business as usual" too.
I never thought Bernie could win a general election. Never. Still don't.
He said he was a Dem for purpose of the primaries, but he "reverted"
back to what he really was afterwards.
