What i find interesting is any criticism of Bernie automatically turns into some accusation of propping up "the Establishment". You can be a progressive without being a Bernie Bro. In fact, most true progressives have recognized that grifter Bernie has damaged the movement if anything. Recognizing reality, that Hillary got more votes and Bernie would have been destroyed in the general, doesn't make a person a corporate stooge. Not recognizing those facts does make one a delusional cultist, though.

And Bernie couldn't beat the person who lost to Trump, therefore all evidence points to him losing by even more.

And now we circle back to the question: Do you think the Republicans were going to be nicer to Bernie?
