Oh, another prediction: gerrymandering is sustained and Republicans retain the Senate and House in 2018 and will continue to do so until America finally dies in 2024.

That was always going to be the case for 2018 - redistricting won't happen until after the 2020 census

Why would Bernie have won when he couldn't beat Hillary? Are you assuming everyone who voted third party would have voted for him, while also keeping every vote that went towards Hillary in the GE?

The Orange Idiot won because we just had a groundswell of white supremacy not seen in decades brought on by a party having eight years to stir their base in a soup of fear and rage over their black President.

I do not see how a Jewish Democratic-Socialist would have done much better to be completely honest.

All the polling during the primary had Bernie winning against Trump in the general election

Trump won counties in Wisconsin that Kerry carried by like 30%. Won rural democratic strongholds where Obama was winning in the 60's. In counties in Ohio that Obama carried by 20, Trump cut HRC's margin to 2.

We abandoned white rural democrats in the rustbelt and they abandoned us, basically. Or they just didn't turn out. Bidens been talking about this for months.

Yeah... Biden is probably the only one that would have won against Trump, if you ask me. Bernie would run into the problem of his religion.

You want to get Democrats who turned out in 2012 to turn out in 2018, give them something to be angry about and make it look like something is at stake. If they're ineffective people won't give a poo poo in 2018, if you lose 9 lazy Senators what difference does it make?

Invoke cloture on EVERYTHING. If they change the rules to re-require standing filibusters you do those too. Make it clear that everyone who feels lovely isn't alone. When it comes to the Congress any press is good press because the elections are 100% local.

Reasoning behind that?

i presume something to do with trump having a far greater appeal to union types who traditionally went democratic but felt left out of the discussion until trump did things like talk in front of a literal garbage pile about how getting a job at a lovely, dangerous job at a non-union steel plant was something our whole country should aspire to. almost exclusively focusing on middle class concerns is a problem, turns out

Interestingly enough, I agree with the hottake that HRC would have probably beaten a more standard republican. There's a lot of weird things in the numbers in the Rust Belt that makes me think that Trump is his own thing.

Republican party? Beat them, smashed them. The Bush dynasty - DEAD.
The Democratic party? Beat them, smashed them. The Clinton dynasty - DEAD.

Trump is a political force of nature and here we are.

They can donate to a charity to dodge a toxx or downgrade a perma toxx to a regular toxx.

Would have been better to make them repudiate Hillary and make them beg for
forgiveness or be perma toxxed like they tried with the Trump toxx.

The democratic primary and the GE are different elections with different voters. As we're now seeing Clinton lost because millions of voters didn't turn up to vote for her because she is a candidate with massive negatives who didn't have a strong positive message of her own. Those are areas where it is reasonable to think Sanders would have done better.

it is not about third party votes or peeling voters away from trump. dem voter turnout was way the gently caress down, hell even republican turnout was down from 2012. it is about hillary being a candidate with an open fbi investigation and 20 years of what is essentially slandering. she was not a candidate people wanted to vote for so they just stayed home.

i think a lot of the poo poo she got from republicans was a bunch of dumb bullshit but it doesn't even matter that they never substantiated any of it, it only mattered that the public heard it.
