This idiot wouldn't have actually WON, would he? I have never been more scared of a candidate than Sanders. Sadly, I think his kind is the future of the Democratic party, and the polls about what would happen if only young people vote have me gravely concerned that these fringe-leftist loonies will multiply over the coming years.
I hate being a millennial. My generation are a bunch spoiled brats who want everything handed to them through a little slot on their "safe space" door. I was formerly a Democrat, but Bernie's very existent redpilled me.
Bernie would have beaten Trump. He had all of Hillary's voters to begin with, without being corrupt to the bone or a murderer. DNC fucked themselves.
William Thomas
Her turnout was on the first vagina president.
No. Sanders is beta Trump is alpha
Camden Young
He absolutely would have defeated Trump.
Justin Flores
>all of Hillary's voters I know quite a few HRC voters that ditched her when she adopted parts of Bernie's platforms.
Nathaniel Green
He's white and he doesn't have a vagina. He's a fucking commie. He only joined the Democratic party to run for president, he never would have won the hearts and minds of the Dem establishment even if he got the nomination.
He would have been crushed.
Dylan Flores
Why? Idiot millennials?
The man is ideologically and politically unhinged.
Andrew Peterson
They would've won, together. I doubt he would've won alone.
Aaron Anderson
nah sanders would have lost just as hard especially in the great lakes area who don't want fucking socialism
Logan Scott
I'm pretty sure his statements praising breadlines would've lost him some voters had he made it to the general election.
Matthew Nelson
He would have instantly shored up the entire Republican base and leaners. Then he would have scared off rural blue voters once GOP started airing attack ads on his communism.
Julian Foster
They think because he had college students he would win. Problem is all Trump had to do was bring up economics and he'd lose everything because nobody wants to pay for his shit system/
Jordan Fisher
Exactly, he was never attacked in debates. He would've been beat so bad.
Isaiah Myers
Would have lost florida. Florida was won by Cubans, unlike in Romney/Obama, in whic the cuban vote was 50/50, with Trump it was 60/40 since they did not approve of Obama lifting the embargo with Communist Cuba. Bernie has defended and praise castro in the past and in one of the debates.
Not sure if america can vote for an openly socialist president.
Jonathan Rivera
...
Benjamin Ward
They aren't having kids. Lol
Nicholas Ward
Top of the ticket? Less than zero chance, when Americans saw his proposed tax policies, he'd have lost every independent, any Democrat with a job, and all conservatives. A self-described socialist atheistic Jew is tailor made to do well in California and Washington, and get fucking BURIED in every moderately purple state. He'd have had Clinton's map, while losing Nevada, New Mexico, all of Maine, New Hampshire, and Virginia. Minorities also probably would have shied away from him due to not being a man of faith. He couldn't even get blacks in the primaries against Hillary.
Bottom of the ticket? He'd have won Hillary the election, easily. Thank God she was beholden to Kaine due to a promise years ago when he was the head of the DNC. Would have injected a lot of life into the Clinton campaign, and gotten millennials to show up and vote.
I find it extremely comical when people think that anybody other than millennials would have voted for this assclown in the general election. Old people, religious minorities, and Democrats with any money would have fucking killed this man.
Jackson Thomas
I noticed an enormous amount of people that were completely torn between Hillary and Trump. They seriously didn't want to vote for Trump, and would have voted for anyone BUT Hillary, so they ended up going Trump because they didn't have any other choice. That's just what I think though; I'm not some sort of political genius. I can only say what I saw around me.
Nicholas Bennett
He got even less of the crucial Black vote than Shillary. Which is weird considering how this guy fought for their rights in the 60s. People on here told me they didn't like him because they didn't want to share their gibsmedat with working-class Whitey.
Hudson Bennett
He probably has a vagina. A 70 year old woman had more testosterone than him lol. One if the things I liked about Hillary was that she appeared strong and confident about her ideas. Bernie appeared like a cuck especially if you see those photos and videos of BLM invading his rallies.
Matthew Lopez
Yes, he would have. Lots of work to do these next 4 years.
Jack Cox
The good/bad news is you will grow up like everyone else eventually. The idiots won't but fuck 'em
Dominic Jones
You might hate Sanders because he supports poor blacks but based on his voting record he is more about economic stratification before racial stratification.
He gets poor whites better than any single person in his entire party, the same demographic that just drove Trump to victory. He and Michael Moore are the only people of significance in that party who give a shit about poor whites at all.
Sebastian Thomas
Sanders was a truthsayer - and wasn't afraid to bring up the dark sides. But some people don't like that and made sure he was shut out.
Xavier Ramirez
>He had all of Hillary's voters to begin with no he didn't. Loads of people, even my dad, hated him cause he's a socialist.
Jaxon Hernandez
Had Bernie run against Trump. Might have even been worse, honestly. A lot of those blue states wouldn't even be safe.
Would have been absolutely beautiful, and the biggest landslide since 1984.
Joseph Butler
Most liberals don't know what socialism is; nor do they want to know.
Noah Morales
He wouldve won, no question. Too bad the corrupt dnc fucked him over.
Aaron Bell
Too bad? More like thank Christ.
Michael Rivera
He most likely would have won. Which is all the more reason why leftists everywhere should hate Hillary Clinton.
She never has and never will deserve to be president.
Eli Lee
Go ahead, explain in your own words what socialism is without using the words commie or comunism.
You dont know shit, mouthbreather.
Evan Ross
That's in large part because Hillary and Trump's domestic policy weren't that different apart from a few key issues like Obamacare.
Bernie would get railed because he's an honest to god socialist, they could take his actual policy positions and use them to prove to the American people that he's an economic lunatic. Most people never saw that in the primaries, all they saw was a nice old guy who wanted to give everyone free shit.
Chase Ross
He calls himself a socialist This is political suicide
Cameron Ortiz
Gibs me dat.
Also where did you get a picture of my beard?
Austin Carter
Enjoy John Bolton as secretary of state and the worst of the establishment neocons, you contrarian edgelord. Hope the first nuke hits far from you, so you can live and look like those mummies in fallout.
Michael Reyes
If you find that surprising, I should show you the one of your moms pussy.
Ryder Hall
Holy shit that's a god tier beard.
Jack Bailey
>has Jew in his ID >utterly terrible arguments
Bernie, stop hitting the bottle and go to bed.
Michael Ward
He's five Jews drinking Hi-C. It's plain as day.
Jack Lopez
There seem to be three types of millenials: actual spoiled brat snowflake millenials, normal young people, and--worst of all--the Wahhh I hate my generation and their safe space participation trophiessssss spastic queerlords. You are the third one m8 which is worse because you are more prevalent, internalize a stereotype and allow single experiences or interactions with normal young people to affirm that stereotype.
William Gutierrez
No. Every single democratic candidate will be nonwhite from here on out. Bernie will be in a primary and be accused of mansplaining and using his privilege and all sorts of shit. It will be like those women that grabbed the mic and the crowd will be hooting and hollering. Talking about economic issues will just confuse them and they will say you're "distracting from the real issues"
Wyatt Allen
most people, especially people in college, lean heavy to the left when they're younger and get more conservative the older they get. the whole argument of this country's youth leaning more to the left is ridiculous. 18-24 year olds have been protesting everything for the past 50 years.
do schools not teach history anymore?
Christian Reyes
No. I have a bachelor's in a STEM field and I never took any sort of history class. I imagine at even more liberal colleges they make it even easier to avoid subjects that don't interest you.
Luis Richardson
I think he meant well, but the problem is that he is a radical left wing socialist. Socialism is always dangerous. You should be scared of him.
Millenials embraced him because of the plethora of free things he promised them. They have no understanding of economics and that in order for someone to be given something, someone else has to pay for that thing. They just say "the 1% will pay for it" but they don't realize that the 1% will leave the country because no one works hard to be taxed 90% of your earnings. The whole concept is retarded and that tap runs out.
Hunter Davis
>This idiot wouldn't have actually WON, would he?
probably not. Bloomberg would have run 3rd party and thrown the election to Trump.
Joseph Murphy
>Meanwhile, Trump offering massive tax cuts across all classes while INCREASING government spending on military and infrastructure Everyone offers free shit during election season.
Jackson Adams
They would have hated any Democratic nominee as much as Hillary.
Owen Walker
Left wing votes never stay left for long. They grow up and turn right.
Hunter Clark
Gen Z are the opposite of millennials. By the time another Democrat gets elected they'll all be old enough to vote. Many of those millennials will get more conservative as they age too.
Aiden Long
Those tax cuts will allow businesses to grow and new business to open, this tax cut increases jobs, pay, and the ability to stimulate the economy. When you have more people working, they are earning paychecks, which then create government revenue through taxation and go to goods and services which stimulates the economy. This is a win win situation.
I'm sorry that you don't understand economics 101, but I do. I just gave you your first lesson.
The stimulation of the government revenue through federal income tax figuring in the additional booming industry that employs more people, along with other taxes, balances out rebuilding the military and infrastructure. A lot of that infrastructure will be on state taxes, not federal anyway.
What else do you need help with?
Elijah Watson
What? Where are you getting this from lol, how exactly would Gen Z be conservative?
Alexander Stewart
Hillary chose Tim Kaine because he agreed to step down to let Debbie Weisserman Shultz rig the primaries for her.
Anthony Reyes
Hillary's destiny should look like mexico
Bernie's Destiny should look like Hillary's
I'm okay with Teds destiny
Trump's destiny should look more like the 50s or something.
Alexander Garcia
Lol Crazy Bernie will had been rediculously stumped. The only reason trump went so easy on Clinton was because she was a woman.
But or would had been entertaining watching California go R...
Bernie would have won, he had the same idea that trump had on economic policies but clearly defined.
Justin Cox
Both respectable conservative and liberal economist's analyzations of his plan place it at creating 9 trillion dollars minimum in debt while creating mild short-term job growth. I could go into a thousand reasons why it wouldn't be worth the price, but I think the experts have covered it well enough for you to slowly trod through yourself
Both Republican and Democrats would be against it if he ever pushed it. Which he never would because it's a joke of a tax plan.
You didn't really believe Bush's "Tax cuts always pay for themselves" bullshit did you? Sorry you never got past the basics of economics 101.
True financial conservative here, not eating the half-baked public school dogma you're swallowing. You can't teach me anything.
Zachary Adams
We're still posting polls? Did we learn nothing?
Christian Butler
If Bernie actually had gotten elected, he would still have had to deal with a Republican House and would have achieved less than Obama, disappointing and disillusioning his fans forever.
Gavin Parker
I'd play Ted's game.
Brayden Williams
Bernie absolutely would have won.
>b-but he would've been redbaited into irrelevance!!
Ask Clinton how well redbaiting Trump worked out.
Levi Rogers
Not saying his plan wasn't a joke either, just calling out a double standard.
Michael Cox
They are only factoring in temporary government jobs, not private enterprise jobs. Those wouldn't be temporary unless a democrat socialist gets elected next and regulates and taxes said businesses to death.
You can only grow an economy by lowering taxes and allowing entrepreneurs and businesses to expand. Capitalism is the best system in the world, and I don't mean the crony capitalism that we have now.
You cannot tax a country into a booming economy. It's impossible. You cannot make the poor rich by making the rich poor.
Well, I graduated with highest honors, so I don't give a shit what you identify as. You're wrong here.
Jeremiah Roberts
Because the Huffington Post got the polls right the first time right?
Xavier Rodriguez
We have to forget about them, they are lost. Focus on preserving the future, everyone born after 2000.
Sebastian Cook
>He had all of Hillary's voters to begin with
obviously not
Easton Wright
I have 15 phds and a masters in lying on the internet.
If you were any respectable level of economist you'd know his taxplan is unrealistic and unsustainable. I told you I'm a financial conservative, I believe in growth via tax cuts. But there's a limit to how low those cuts can go, and Trump's crosses the line by a mile. You cannot pull a booming economy out of a debt spiral. These are Greece levels of tax cuts if they were to ever be approved. No one is talking about spooky socialist boogeymen right now. And yes, they do factor in private sector growth, in fact, that's the only thing they factor in because there's no way to interpolate using temporary government jobs as a base.
Grayson Allen
...
David Clark
Someone tell me why minorities wan't Hillary when Bernie would offer much more gibs?
Nathaniel Foster
no, weak sell out cucks don't win
William Ross
No he wouldn't have. Clinton didn't rig the primary, there is no evidence she did. The DNC wasn't impartial like they should have been, but she didn't rig it. If he couldn't beat her, then why do his supporters think he could beat Trump when Clinton couldn't?
No, no he couldn't for the reasons I outlined above. His supporters don't vote and he doesn't have the popular support he claims to have.
Noah Adams
How would he get the black vote? Obama got so many votes compared to Clinton because all the niggers wanted their nigga in the white house.
Eli Gomez
He literally said he didn't know how to break up the banks you fucking idiot. He was promising pipe dreams. Granted so was Trump and he won.
Austin Hill
Zero chance. And even if he did pic related would have played out
Robert Lee
nah bro. Bernie is the guy the rich elites feared most. cause he was the only one concerned with helping the common man out.
we got the wrong populist as president.
And yes, he def could have beaten Trump. The only reason Trump won was because he was for change. Bernie was for change, AND had a long political career. It would have been no contest.
Juan Jenkins
The DNC being partial, and evidence leaked in her emails prove she rigged the primary, not that it would have mattered.
Never in the foreseeable future would americans elect a socialist as president.
Joshua Wilson
Even Trump admitted on Twitter that he would not have stood a chance against Bernie.
Blake Roberts
Because no matter what, they will never trust a white man.
Jacob Phillips
No. He's a socialist. We're capitalists. It's really just that simple.
Eli Myers
...
Ian Lewis
Every thing he advocates has been massively successful in other first world nations
Gavin Hill
You overestimate the intellectual capacity of the left.
Jack Jenkins
This is true. >but murica is different
Juan Cruz
>Every thing he advocates has been massively successful in other first world nations WITH A HOMOGENEOUS POPULATION
Parker Barnes
You're a bold faced liar is all you are, there are plenty of sources that can enlighten you to how tax cuts are beneficial to the economy. Barack Obama destroyed our economy with his overspending on failed policies such as Obamacare. This is why we are in this situation.
I never said you could magically make a good economy out of one that is dying. What you can do is deregulate and offer tax cuts in order to create new businesses and jobs which stimulate the economy through taxation and spending on goods and services. You aren't grasping that. You truly think raising taxes are the only way to fix things, and that monetary tap runs out.
In this situation you are dead wrong. You're putting words into my mouth that I never said. You can go be retarded if you want to, but I will enlighten you on something. I'm wealthy, do you want to know how much of my money the government takes? I get to keep roughly 45% of it. How much more do I need to pay out in taxes to make you happy? I'll move my business elsewhere if they increase much more, which is why the other businesses are already doing the same thing.
This creates a situation where it's easier to be profitable if you just fire everyone and outsource. This is what you are in favor of, instead of actually gaining some knowledge of how the economy works.
Not only should the government give tax cuts, they should eliminate the corporate tax completely because corporations don't pay taxes the workers pay taxes and the customer pays for the tax, not us.
Ryan Thomas

Landon Taylor
>universal health care doesn't work because there some non white people
Kek. Kys
Mason Lopez
It has?
Xavier Turner
No it hasn't. The nations he is thinking about are Sweden and Denmark. Denmark is not socialist, it's a market economy, there is a huge misconception. Sweden has taxes so high that people are struggling without government assistance, AND Sweden was made profitable through capitalism. Sweden now has a 180% car tax, that's why no one drives and they rely on public transportation.
Eli Reyes
Like Sweden?
Sebastian Taylor
Literally proven with UK and Sweden.
Grayson Gonzalez
Trump has to turn america around or we are screwed next election
Jacob Rodriguez
lol he wasn't wanting to tax cars.
Josiah Jackson
He did march with MLK.
Samuel Garcia
No
Tyler Lewis
He wants to tax rich people, who are known to be proficient in avoiding taxes.
Samuel White
The UK is not socialist. I literally just proved you wrong on Sweden. I never said he did derp, the car tax is a consequence of free college and free healthcare. That money has to be paid for somehow, and Sweden, now a failing country, has taxes through the roof.
Mason Morgan
>tfw you have just captured another little boy for your rape dungeon.
Gavin Martinez
No he had the same problem as Hillary. He ignored the blue collar workers.
