The tough thing is he would never have won a general election, and the Democrat party knew it. That’s part of why they shafted him. They still shouldn’t have done that though.

Why wouldn’t he have been able to win the general election?

Perhaps I have stars in my eyes, but I think he would have.

The man is a Socialist, and most people are afraid of Socialism. Things would need to get really really bad in America for Americans to want such drastic change.

That’s a circular argument. You’re saying he couldn’t be elected, despite his massive popularity, because he’s a socialist?

Now would the purple party put a socialist in power? No. Would the people? Yes.

If Bernie was the candidate in 2016, or even 2024, I in my heart truly believe he would have won.
