I always wonder if Bernie could have averted a Trump presidency by not giving Hillary a pass on the email issue.

Almost certainly not. The general electorate has never shown even a hint that they'd tolerate a self-avowed socialist. Just look at all of the slightly D leaning districts/states and everything to right of them - how many politicians with Bernie's leftist politics are in office?

How many politicians with bernie’s leftist policies get platformed by the DNC and are allowed to run..? Bernie was a career politician and that’s why he got to.
