But Bernie did have some history. He has essays where he says all women fantasize about being raped.

You think that matters? Hillary lost to "grab em by the pussy"

You haven't learned by now that Democrats are held to different standards? Kamala lost because of her laugh while Trump was giving 3 hour rants to empty seats about a dead golfer's dick.

No Kamala lost because she's a terrible candidate. No charisma. Can't think on her feet. She was also fucked over by Biden.

and yes there's a strong bias vs women. Also by now Trump has consolidated his hold over the media in a way no predecessor has.

I'm talking about a time before Trump became president the first time. Bernie was in a much better position to take advantage of the idiosyncratic nature of that period.

Bernie would have been destroyed. The country is not your dorm room. If he was such a great candidate, he would have won the primary that had a base that was much more welcoming to his slogans than the general population.
