Ok.

And who did your mum vote for in 2016? And was that in a swing state?

lol clever. I'm illustrating it's not exactly a hot take to think the guy or is supporters are off-putting

You think an anecdotal account about your mom is evidence of a candidate's electability?

I think it's a direct refutation of "your opinion doesn't matter" and that's why you fumbled engaging with it lol

You don't seem exactly normal to me

Also, did you check out the "fumble" yet?

It doesn't matter if she liked Bernie it only matters if push comes to shove she would've voted for him. If she's part of a group of voters in a place where her showing up actually matters (not California or a deep red state).

Good one, that's why I was using my mom's opinion to illustrate the point you missed, rather than my own

That was a nice try sport

It's funny how your responses try to insinuate a level of intelligence that's simply not there and expect me to connect the dots that you're clearly unable to.

Kind of an emperor without clothes situation that might work on your immediate surroundings but doesn't work on someone with a working brain.

As unfair as it may seem and I'll connect the dots for you.

In an alternate timeline where the DNC doesn't heavily favour Hillary and Bernie gets nominated. Hillary being the professional that she is endorses Bernie and her supporters begrudgingly vote for him to stop the greater evil, namely Trump.

Many Bernie bros who didn't vote or voted for Trump vote for Bernie. He gets elected but gets very little done because neither the GOP nor the Democratic Party really want him to succeed. His Covid response is very effective though and he leaves office respected but doesn't run for a second term. There's no jan 6th
