Every major poll showed that Bernie Sanders would have defeated Donald Trump. The Democratic Party's own internal polling showed that as many as 37% of  blue collar workers who did not support Clinton and voted for Trump would have supported Sanders. THEY KNEW THAT.  Hillary Clinton lost because the Democratic party pushed to put the wrong candidate on the ticket (their actions behind the scenes to try to weaken Senator Sanders efforts is well documented). Hillary Clinton lost because her campaign was out of touch with what was happening on the ground. Her campaign was overconfident. You are focused on the wrong enemy and you do not want to see what will happen if we go into another election cycle with the Democratic party blind to the fact that the old guard is FINISHED, progressives are looking for a better way, and it's time for new faces, new voices, and new ways of doing things.  There is war to be fought here and Bernie Sanders is not the enemy.
