Y’all hate Hillary Clinton for this, but Hillary was a better retail politician over many decades of going into minority communities and at least showing up. Bernie is still to this day not even a Democrat so why should anyone invest in him when he doesn’t invest in the party that locally defend the rights of minorities other Similar interests.Why didn’t the congressional black caucus endorse him

I'm not a bernie fan in fact I'm a hater due to same exact reasoning but let's be honest, would bernie showing up to Michigan pretending to give a fukk about black people changed anything for black folks? The answer is no. The party couldn't even pass actual tangible things such as the John Lewis voting rights act: instead the party allowed conservative states to openly gerrymander black districts and take black people off of voting scrolls. We have much bigger tthings to worry about then bernie showing up to Wayne county

( I did see somebody black in like the fourth picture)I’ve come to realize we just need everybody to play their role. Bernie isn’t a national guy due to his lack of familiarity with minority populations so if he is best at riling up economically anxious white people let’s just let him cook and leave the other duties to people not afraid of black peoples.
Hillary would pass more laws than Biden did

This is a red district why would their be black people there ? Democrats should primarily be going to these areas for town halls if they plan to win these purple states. It's cool to rock it out in mass numbers Milwaukee, Detroit Atlanta Philly etc but these are already your guaranteed voting block. What Bernie is doing is exactly how Obama succeeded, and what democrats should be doing if they want to win a purple state
Possibly, but the reality is Biden had all 3 branches of government and could have passed a voting rights package and failed to do so. So now we're in the worst position we have ever been since the 1960s
Biden did not have a supermajority
Biden didn't need supermajority they could have eliminated the fill buster, just like republicans won't need it when they ratify doge cuts
He’s doing one of the many things Obama had to do to win, which also included showing his face in black spaces. Again I no longer expect Bernie to do that and being that to my knowledge, he’s not running in 2028, he can go rally with economically anxious people til his hearts content as long as the person that will actually be leading the party in the future respects the base
Explain to me how campaigning in Milwaukee cuts the margins in republicans districts ? Democrats should be campaigning based on district %s, trump went to blue districts and people laughed, it was actually very smart of him

Well a few things off the top of my head:
poor judgment making skills on his part
he isn't resonating with economically anxious whites or at least not in the numbers necessary to win
if he sin't resonating with economically anxious whites, I think that whole narrative that people spend so much money and energy pushing should be put to rest
he may be incapable or is worse unwilling to speak to black people/minorities which to me is a deal breaker for anyone I want to represent me particularly as president
the later points you're trying to make boil down to your inability to hold Republicans accountable for their actions and voters who are either openly hostile to black people or are all to common indifferent
Sure and maybe we wouldn't be having this conversation if got his head out of his ass decades ago
He's in the twilight of his life now but the we need "economically anxious whites:" and to tailor dem agenda to conservatives needs to stop whether it's liberals or the dirtbag left pushing it
Then had this used against us right now?
