No offense but there's no way Bernie would win the 2016 elections (or any presidental election) his democratic socialist ideology turns off moderate democrats ( so the crushing majority of dems) and on-the-fence voters, and of course the majority of republicans are terrified of socialism or anything communism related. But let's not derail this thread too much...

True.
I’m just saying, if the DNC had a more reliable and less corrupt politician running, one with greatest appeal to centrists rather than just leftists, then they could’ve won the election. But because Hillary sucked, and because of the left-wing backlash at the time, we ended up with what we ended up with.

Bernie would've crushed Trump if he wasn't so overtly (Democratic) socialist. Though he probably would've lost his appeal with millennials
