    I already lost Roe v Wade cause “progressives” cutting off their nose in spite.

    Even if Hilary lost, that was no excuse to let Republicans take over the senate or elsewhere. Which they did.

    Even back in my more “libertarian” days I still voted for Hilary cause what I knew could happen. And it did happen.

    Edit: Turns out Bernie/Progressive voters really did come out a lot for Hilary, which lead to the popular vote wins. I was wrong. Sorry.

      Yeah, except Bernie’s supporters voted for Hillary at higher rates than Hillary folks voted for Obama, so maybe Hillary, her dumb fucking insecure email server, her lack of personality, and the DNC who helped her cheat her way through primary debates are the real ones to blame, not the progressives. She was a terrible candidate who the right hated and independents didn’t like much better and she proved she was a terrible candidate by losing to the worst Republican candidate in the last hundred years. She had all the help she should’ve needed from progressives.
