The Democrats honestly brought this on themselves.
Bernie Sanders was by far the most popular candidate in 2016, but Hillary ultimately won the nomination purely on superdelegates because the system is crooked and apparently the Clinton dynasty had to continue. It’s a substantially different world, and the Clintons have heavily fallen out of public favour, which is why Hillary failed to get elected.
Sanders had another chance in 2020, this time the party members threw Bernie under the bus and chose to counter one senile fossil with another.
Yes Bernie Sanders would’ve been the oldest candidate, but Biden hasn’t exactly aged gracefully and seems to be even more forgetful than Trump.
I don’t think Biden has a chance of winning this year’s election unless by some landmark supreme court miracle, Trump is struck off from the ballot and the Republican Party is forced to hastily select another candidate. Even then I think someone like Ted Cruz, Jeb Bush, Ron DeSantis or Rick Santorum would thrash Biden in the polls.
And if Trump wins, I fear the Fascist takeover that will follow.
Hillary Clinton won the primaries by popular vote by 55% to 43%. If you want to point at some shitfuckery against Sanders, you first have to look at a mass media that has historically ignored the interests and issues of working class people, promoted people and opinions that would argue against any kind of large change, and given better coverage to non-leftist candidates, because the owners to that media want it to defend their own interests, not serve as neutral vehicles of discussions in a democratic society.
