quote:

Prominent Democrats are increasingly riled by attacks from Bernie Sanders' supporters, whose demands for ideological purity are hurting the party ahead of the 2018 midterms and 2020 presidential election, they say.

But it’s not just the outside agitators that Democratic lawmakers, operatives, and activists are annoyed with: They’re tired of what they see as the senator’s hesitance to confront his own backers, either in public or through back channels.

Tensions boiled over recently when a handful of Sanders loyalists bashed freshman Sen. Kamala Harris — a rising star in the party and potential 2020 hopeful — as an establishment tool. Democrats were also rankled that other prominent Sanders allies said support for single-payer health care should be a litmus test for candidates.

In response, Democratic senators and outside groups have begun telling Sanders and friendly intermediaries that if he wants to be a leading figure for Democrats ahead of 2020’s presidential election, he needs to get his supporters in line — or at least publicly disavow their more incendiary statements.

The confrontations, they insist, threaten party unity ahead of a critical midterm election cycle, when Democrats have a shot at winning the House and several governor’s offices.

“The Democratic Party has treated Senator Sanders exceptionally well. We collectively let him run in our primaries when he declared he wasn’t a Democrat — I count that as a great favor, and an opportunity almost no one else has ever received,” said former Democratic National Committee chairman Don Fowler, who has called for the independent Sanders to formally join the party.

“I don’t know what his intentions are in terms of the future,” Fowler added, referring to the senator's willingness to corral his supporters. “Senator Sanders has to make his own decisions about what’s responsible to do."

the whole article is a hilarious :qq:

it's different this time because now the credit bubble popped and the vast majority of americans are having to face the reality that their economic station is going to worsen and not get better as it has in the past

previously people would be able to laugh off the predicted reckoning because credit still let american quality of life improve even though median americans haven't received a real wage increase since the 70s

The 1970s-early 80s were also a time of economic crisis and deindustrialization, they voted in a guy who hosed them over with policy because he was such great friendly guy who you like to have beer with

she got a ton of poo poo for that stunt she pulled with glenn beck. furthermore why are you acting like upper class people making sure poors don't have access to their kid's top tier schools is even remotely "lunatic" or "fringe" when it's a very common and well documented problem?

if you think about it, Hillary is merely "heightening the contradictions" inside the democratic party and thus intensifying the revolution

A shitty post? This calls for a dance of deduction.
Since the results of the election Hillary diehards have argued the following of why Hillary lost:

- Americans were too socially conservative and thus too sexist to vote for a woman president (debunked when it was shown many Obama counties switched to Trump)

- Trump was mastermind and was unbeatable (debunked due to... LMFAO)

- Third Party voters (debunked as it was unlike ly that enough of them would chose Hillary over Trump if given the choice, or that they wouldn't just sit home)

- It was BernieBros fault (debunked as the overwhelming vast majority of Bernie supporters voted for Hillary)

- Russia (debunked because Hillary handled her scandals in the worst possible fashion)

- The Algorithm -Debunked as the people who made it told Hillary that according to their predict in the swing states were far from safe)

- BernieBros again (Debunked as more '08 Hillary voters went PUMA then Sanders supporters who voted Trump


Yeah I think that about covers it. Wonder what's next?
