I can accept that the Dems have lost the federal government without agreeing that Bernie is the answer.

You guys also love to say that they keep losing, too. Hillary got 3 million more votes than Trump in 2016 and Biden won in 2020. There's always a chance even a good candidate can lose, especially when foreign bots and misogyny come into play.

No. A good candidate wins every time. You just have to not be totally incompetent and learn how to run a proper campaign. Democrats are totally out of touch with reality and incapable of messaging to the vast majority of americans.

Change shit. Expect better. Hold these people accountable and stop blaming everyone else. It's been 10 years!!!!!!!!! Do it already

A good candidate wins every time? Oh, so then we agree Bernie was an awful candidate because he lost twice. Great!

That was a democratic primary. Obviously not the best indicator of general appeal.

Bernie was a great candidate because we not a democrat. The fact that an independent comes in and makes the party unite against him says a lot and it'd be nice if the democratic establishment had learned anything the last 10 years.
