    I don’t know why you’re surprised or confused about this. Bernie was an independent and not even a member of the DNC until just before the election.

    He was an unknown. Hillary has been a part of the party for decades. That’s like complaining that the DNC didn’t throw full support behind a Green party candidate that switched just before the election. That’s not bullshit. That’s just how politics works. Bernie didn’t lay the foundation of trust needed to get the DNC to back him.

    I agree with your point to everyone working against him. Btw I love Bernie and voted for him both times. But I’m just tired of leftists shooting themselves (and all of the rest of us) in the foot by spreading anti-Democrat propaganda during and between every election and being all shocked Pikachu when literal billionaires take over the government as a result.

    It’s usually privileged white leftists who think their political puritanism is justified.
