MODERATORS
Sanders, God love him, was not going to be electable. Had they run him, Trump would have picked up the whole of the big fat moderate lump in the middle of the bell curve.
Exactly like Boris Johnson did when he ran against Jeremy Corbyn. The capitalists simply won't allow socialists to win in this environment.
This is simply false, and the same consistent misunderstanding of real politic that keeps the DNC on the struggle bus.
By the same logic Trump would not have been considered viable. See how that played out.
Literally every single poll says otherwise. We'll never know for certain, but there's much more evidence to support a Sanders victory than a Sanders loss, and claiming that Trump would have picked up enough moderates to win is baseless speculation.
