As far as I've seen the argument Bernie would have lost is basically like look how bad Biden did with FL cubans and texans scared of socialism, now imagine Bernie. Dipshit, that argument doesn't work because BIDEN DIDN'T WIN THEM EITHER.
It all comes down to how well Biden vs Bernie did the rust belt, deindustrialized NE, and the SW. In every case Bernie beats Biden. In polling and also in actual damn primaries.
that is a factor. Donations are polls you do yourself.
I think a Bernie win would play out a lot like a Biden win except swap GA (because Biden just pulls black votes better) for OH where bernie beats trump. Plus Bernie would have done better in TX because of his odd appeal there. Rust belt which Bernie wins harder than Biden, at least pre sup tues. Bernie leads democrats in polls prior to sup tues in IL, WI, and PA.
I'm not going to check every state but like, are the libs gonna pretend it was anything but an accident they flipped GA and it wouldn't be SAFER to shoot for one point in IN? No doubt he would have bombed FL but are libs gonna pretend like Biden didn't?
Yeah it's gonna be hard to listen to the "thank god we didn't pick Bernie"
