    Bernie has been a senator for decades, but lost by a wide margin to Clinton.

    The party’s ratfucking works most of the time, yes. When it works, people who like the results tout them as indicative of what the results would be without the ratfucking. When the party’s ratfucking fails, it’s never indicative of broader trends in the electorate.

    Conveniently. Your wing of the party prefers trump to any progressive in all cases.

      I’m European so none of your mess of a political system is mine in any way. Even in the European system I’m left of center, so something Americans don’t even imagine.

      That doesn’t prevent me from seeing that by and large the American population has rejected progressives at every step, and some delusional people on the internet keep blaming the DNC and seeking excuses, just because a progressive sometimes wins in NYC or southern California.

      Enjoy the trump.

            I mean, you’ve spent this entire conversation conveniently ignoring the actions of the democratic party against progressives.
