Bernie won Michigan and Wisconsin in the primary. A lot of these former Obama voters who voted for Trump wouldn't have gone to that idiot had Bernie been the nominee.

I would think he'd have been campaigning all summer and fall there as Obama did in 2008/2012. The Clinton campaign arrogantly disregarded the states even when the unions told them that something was wrong during the fall.

But that's a moot point. Bernie lost in the primaries and came up short. It is what it is. Hillary may have ran a progressive platform but her campaign didn't bother going to the people who the Dems have really abandoned cause the Clintons completed the transformation of the Dems into being a socially liberal, corporation friendly party.
I can agree with this. But I don't see corporation friendly as being inherently wrong. 1. Democrats are less corporate friendly than republicans. 2. Democrats are very supportive of corporate regulations.

You're the one calling them progressives. They just called themselves Democrats before this election. Those same workers that switched over to Trump would have stayed if they had Bernie who had the same trade and jobs policy as Trump. Those are the most important issues for these guys and you're trying to deny them their self-interest. These are guys that have voted Democrat for decades. They switched their vote because their traditional party put in a candidate that was going against their highest priority issues. If Bernie was in the running they would have no reason to switch sides as both sides would be addressing their needs.

Yup. For example, West Virginia was a Democratic state until recently. Kentucky had Democrats running the state legislature and governorship until very recently.

Brehs, please 5 star this.

Establishment shills like Nap are disgusting

Trump knows how stupid the liberal elite are... he bankrolled them to get policies he wanted and he knows he can keep running circles on them.

THEY NEVER LEARN :laff:
Why did you cut and paste the entire article? Pretty sure that's against site rules and you're a mod? :dame:

They didn't vote against Hillary or for Bernie because of their policies, but how they campaigned.

If they were rational, intelligent, and aware people they wouldn't cut off their nose to spite their face.
