25. Point to specific actions that the DNC took to "cheat."
A few catty emails about Jeff Weaver after Bernie was mathematically eliminated is not an action.
Golly, a few chatty emails capsized Pickle's campaign?

35. Donna Brazile fed debate questions to Hillary.
Donna didn't have to do that, and Hillary would have been fine without them. But they cheated anyway.

69. That was during the general in a debate with trump. Frankly, I have no problem with that.
Hell yeah, help our candidate beat the repugs.
And how do we know what Donna Brazile did?
Because the repugs and Russians cheated by hacking Dem emails.
I rest my case.
Let's see if we can follow this...
1) Brazille cheats and gives Pickles debate questions in advance
2) Hacks/leaks reveal the cheating
3) The cheating is justified because hacks/leaks revealed the cheating
::)
And these are the people who presume they are smart enough and virtuous enough to govern us.
Then there's this...

65. Never again. He trashed the party all through the primaries and then wouldn't concede when beaten

His supporters trashed Hillary throughout the campaign, causing many to hate her and vote 3rd party or not at all.

So, what you're saying is...
Dem voters are easily manipulated. :popcorn:

28. Oh, ffs! This is getting pathetic.
The only thing that would have drawn even more republicans out to vote, would have been a "socialist, communist" running in the general. However, Bernie couldn't get there. He lost the primary. If you can't win the primary, you have zero chance to win the general. If any of you think that Trump's team, and the republican party, would not have hammered the socialist/communist agenda; you're not thinking clearly.
I never respond to threads here in postmortem, but this is getting so ridiculous; it even drew me out.

Proving that there is no moral or ethical constant with a leftist.

Don't ya just love DU-folks' inability to maintain a consistent narrative?!
"Putin hacked the election!"
"The fruit of Putin's hacking was true!"

I wonder if DU-folk have the smarts to understand that when the truth is the reason they lost ... well ... no ... I don't wonder. They're all about win at all costs and :sheep: the truth.

Why do the DUmmies keep thinking this? I can't imagine Bernie getting many Republican votes at all. He's an old socialist! After the Republicans got done showing everyone what he was really like I can't even imagine more than 60% of the DUmacrats would have voted for him. I will say that Bernie, except for his political leaning, seems like a decent guy. But i still wouldn't vote for a socialist.

Trump got the Republican nomination, but it's a grave mistake to think that everyone who voted for him was a 'Republican.' And a lot of actual Republicans DID NOT vote for him.
The DUmmie who is being mocked for inartfully saying Bernie would have gotten a lot of Republican votes does have a point, in that a lot of people who voted for Trump to prevent a Clinton Presidency would have cheerfully voted for Bernie because he wasn't Clinton and wasn't Trump. A lot of the union blue collar voters who went for Trump would have been a lot more comfortable with voting for Bernie than Hitlery or Trump, and it could have wiped out Trump's margin of victory in the upper Midwest.
Trump trounced Hitlery in this neck of the woods, but I have heard plenty of the locals express the sentiment that they weren't voting FOR Trump, they were voting AGAINST Clinton. While they do like the idea of him rolling back EPA's power-and-land grab, Obama's executive orders, and bringing back some order to the border, they also aren't insanely optimistic about how much of the mess will really get done and how fast, and just thought she was a lot worse. They would not have turned out in droves if he had been up against a less-corrupt or more-likable opponent, and a lot of them would've gone with their union recs.
