Eichenwald: The Myths that Cost Democrats the Election

[LostOne4Ever]

24. Eichenwald said that "Bernie would have won" is a myth

[font style="font-family:'Georgia','Baskerville Old Face','Helvetica',fantasy;" size=4 color=#009999]The poster was disproving that.

Almost everything in the article is on a slant. It ignores the "verified" emails from Donna Brazile and the role Superdelegates played in suppressing the vote from Sander supporters. Seriously 400 of them had dedicated themselves to Clinton before a single primary vote had been cast and ignored that their states went overwhelmingly for Bernie!

And yes, Alan Greyson should have heeded the will of the people of his state too and went Hillary. Everyone who ignored the people deserve blame.

It is also full of bologna on Bernie's chance of winning.

Voters without college degrees would resent Bernie for allowing them to be able to attend College by having the government fund the tuition? How many times did he have to have his mind do mental gymnastics to come up with that piece of tortured logic?

How about claiming Bernie said rape is A-Okay? He never said that! And someone writing essays about something that really happens is somehow worse than a sexual predator who assaults women? Again, that is some amazing mental gymnastics there.

It does that again and again, distorting reality.

It talks about positions costing Bernie Florida-ignoring that Clinton Lost Florida. It glosses over that she lost almost every battleground state save NH (which went to Bernie in the Primaries) and Nevada (which would have went against Trump for his anti-latino bigotry). Not to mention that it ignores that the states that cost Clinton the election were strongly pro-Bernie.

It glosses over that people didn't give a shit about anything else but economic fairness. Trump had so much Baggage that any democrat with a heart beat should have beaten him. He didn't pay taxes, he stiffed his employees, he bragged about buying politicians, he conned people with Trump U, he was a bigot, and was a sexual predator.

None of that mattered to the people who either stayed home or voted for him anyways. That message of bringing back manufacturing jobs was that strong. Now imagine if it was Trump vs Bernie. Same message of bringing back jobs, but with the chance to vote for someone who wasn't a bigot nor a misogynist nor a person who preyed on women and young girls?

In HISTORICALLY BLUE states?

Bernie would have hit a home run!!!

And it disparages millennials while ignoring that if it was just us Hillary would have won in a landslide and ignore that it is the OLDER Generations who ACTUALLY VOTED FOR TRUMP.[/font]
