Bernie couldn't beat Hillary, he didn't stand a chance. The whole idea that Bernie stood a chance against either Hillary or Trump was actual literal Russian propaganda. The only people that like Bernie don't vote, and the ones that do voted for Hillary because she stood a much better chance against Trump. It was never even a little bit close with Bernie, and before you go blah blah DNC collusion (which is also largely ruspublican agitprop) Bernie still would have lost soundly, the Democratic party voters were not going to nominate someone that isn't in the goddamn party. This also ignores the majority of Dem voters are neoliberals and think socialism is a dirty word. Bernie never fucking stood a chance. At all. Whatsoever.
