Because the key to winning elections is to find the most lacking in charisma style person imaginable, a policy wonk, and then command everyone to vote for them.

Seriously though they think Bernie is a narcissist because he and people who like him criticize Democrats sometimes. They've internalized Reagan's Eleventh Commandment.

It's just projection. Bad dems were perfectly OK with kids in cages when it was Obama doing it, much like all the other horrible poo poo he did, so they have to desperately pretend that the left is the worst to shore up their broken-rear end ideology.

Moderate Republicans do love Nazis, and those are the only people whose votes they feel like they're missing

This certainly doesn't help, yeah, but every time I see someone tweet what they're actually mad at Bernie for (aside from ridiculous vague babble like "he hates women" or "he gave us Trump") it's something along the lines of "blasting Dems" as though this is self-evidently evil (and D&D types will still gladly argue that it is, because the GOP benefits from every post you write about how disappointing it is that Schumer caved on DACA)

It's probably a combination from election coverage, where they'd cut from chuds chanting "LOCK HER UP" to naming Bernie as a person who also said things opposed to Hillary Clinton in some way today

AMALO also won a landslide victory



these are unusually low totals for a country with 130 million people

I'm seeing about 42 million votes with only 77% reporting, which projects to nearly 55 million total votes, which is 43% turnout

In contrast, 2016 had 55% turnout and that tracks close to the average over the last 20-30 years of presidential elections

Going through Mexico's general election history I guess they just have low turnout overall?


edit: I'm dumb and didn't account for people who are unable to vote (children, etc)

Bernie Bros only won this election because ACO tapped into her secret network of gentrifying racists?
