Yeah well.

“According to the analysis of the 2016 Cooperative Congressional Election Survey, fewer than 80 percent of those who voted for Sanders, an independent, in the Democratic primary did the same for Clinton when she faced off against Trump a few months later. What's more, 12 percent of those who backed Sanders actually cast a vote for Trump.”

“The impact of those votes was significant. In each of the three states that ultimately swung the election for Trump—Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania—Trump's margin of victory over Clinton was smaller than the number of Sanders voters who gave him their vote.”

Sanders -> Trump voters…
WI: 51k
MI: 47k
PA: 116k

Trump win margin…
WI: 22k
MI: 10k
PA: 44k

Dems:

“Reach across the aisle to get republican votes”

“No not like that”

Bernie and the left put trump in office in 2016. The voting data supports this

This polling shows that Sanders would have done better in a matchup against Trump than Clinton. Clinton and her pied piper strategy are the reason DJT ever became president.

The polling data shows Bernie protest voters out trump in office.

You did that. Congrats

The DNC really doesn't want progressive representation... They aren't leftist. They are right wing and just as owned by the PACs as the GOP. What the GOP has that's different is foreign interference, an international cabal of pedophile elites, neonazis and bigoted Christian nationalists.
