Leftists have a positive opinion of Sanders and defend him to liberals, sure, but in my experience there's less Sanders personality cult among the Left than there is Clinton personality cult among the centrists.

2020. A crusade has been launched to retake the Holy City of Washington from the Living Devil Trump and his Four Horsemen (Ryan, Bannon, Pence, and Putin). But the allied forces are in disarray, as the Sandersian Orthodox faithful are beset both by the Ellisonian and the Buttigiegian Heresies, and by the Centrists of the Decadent National Committee (who are facing their own internal struggles between the Perezians, the Obamites, and the Clintonians).

And let's not even talk about the time that Stein's mercenaries decided to sack the Democratic Convention instead of going all the way to Washington to fight...

This is only true because the far left keeps rapidly falling in love with candidates with no research, and then dismissing them as traitors to the cause the first time they fail a purity test.

The centrists won't dismiss someone no matter how many purity tests a politician fails.

If Strom Thurmond had never switched sides, we'd probably have run him for President.

would've been nice if centrists had shown they were capable of compromise, but they're not.and after their humiliating loss to a spray-tan conman they still think they deserve to run the party.

In fairness, a rapid willingness to dismiss a politician is way, way better than the abject refusal to dismiss them even in light of both their lack of principles and inability to win elections

You realize, mr arbiter of who and what other posters are/do/know, that the phrase "ITT" stands for "In This Thread," correct?
