I have never posted in politics b/c I know it is very polarized these days, I'd like to keep it to myself. But after watching last night, I felt so enraged. I consider myself as center-left, dem-leaning, I like pragmatic, mainstream politician, I support HRC wholeheartedly even though I blame her for her shortcomings. But not even 12hr passed the "progressives" already blame everything on the "corrupt" HRC on this sub for the loss. For all of you who claim now the way to win is to go to extreme left, I have a message for you - FUCK YOU. I am going to do the same to your guys in 2018 and 2020 by voting for Trump the scumbag.
The reason? I hate Sander's socialist policy, it will only ruin this country like it did to China, Russia and all the former Eastern EU Communist countries. You fuckers need to take your head collectively out of your ass and realize not everyone agrees with you. Use your own logic: if you have even slight different opinion than someone, you shouldn't support him/her, I won't support Sanders.
You fuckers claim the game was rigged for HRC, here is the thing: there are both Pros and Cons for running as insider and outsider. For insider, yes, you got the “insider track” no question about it, but you also got all the baggage that you have to defend all the failures of current administration – no easy thing to do. For an outsider like Sanders – yes by definition he won’t have as much establishment support, but he can run as “clean” candidate and won’t have to defend the current policy, he has no luggage. He can freely claim all his policies will work wonders because none has got any track record. So yes, those are advantages of an outsider who have “clean hands” because those are the fuckers standing on the sidelines who can always claim moral high ground and purity. Both the far left and the far right do this, you fuckers are no different.
The DEM lost this time because: 1) there isn't enough enthusiasm owing to the extreme hate towards HRC from both the far left and far ight 2) the complete wash of white working class who used to be bed rock for the DEM, but felt alienated as the DEM pander too much to the minorities, especially the policy towards the undocumented, but if you dare mention anything then you are automatically labeled a racist.
You guys think pushing purity and fringe left policy can win next time – go right ahead. I for one will be casting a fuck you ballot against you as you did this time against HRC.
