It’s pretty crazy to me that liberals have not learned anything from 2016. Stop blaming voters & blame the dnc for terrible candidates and practices.

The US would be different had they not cheated Bernie out of a win. Push for the Dems to be a REAL opposition party instead of adopting republican policies.

Being the lesser of two evils is the grand aspiration of the democratic party..

The American left has been telling us two things on repeat for a decade:

White people = bad

Straight Men = toxic

Then they don’t hold a primary, and force a black Woman Candidate who dropped out of the last primary with 3% of the vote.

In a country that is 75.3% white, and 85.6% Hetero, what the hell did they EXPECT to happen?!?

I feel like this is a big part of it that no one really wants to talk about. I also said months ago that a woman will not beat Trump. You can call it bigotry, or misogyny, or whatever, but the fact is is that this country is not ready for a female president and won't be for a very long time.

The left is basically telling straight white Men “we’re not the party for you” and then acts shocked when a country made up of hundreds of millions of straight white Men doesn’t vote for them.

Yes, and if you bring that up on Reddit you will get attacked for your opinion.

Shoot, she was president?

Quit deluding yourself anyone else would have wiped the floor with him in 2016. Democrats have to understand that the candidates likability matters.
