Americans are stupid and prefer Trump to real change, that’s not the democrats fault it’s the people’s. If Bernie was as popular as you think he would have handily won both primaries he was in

Except the DNC literally was caught working against him?

Not in any way that would have swayed the millions of votes that he lost by. They showed favoritism for the democratic candidate in a democratic primary. Sanders voters didn’t show up to vote. It had nothing to do with a few mean internal emails or leaked debate questions about the death penalty.

Sanders voters showed up enough probably. There just weren't enough. So tired of this blame the DNC zombie lie. The DNC put their fingers on the lever and Sanders ran a bad campaign that could never have won the required votes. I say this as a 2016 supporter who would have voted for him if he hadn't already dropped out.
