DU's Bernie problem.

[still_one]

165. I don't have a Bernie problem as the OP alludes to, because Bernie supported the Democratic nominee

in the General Election.

What I do have is a problem with is those self-identified progressives who refused to support the Democratic nominee in the general election, and instead choose to follow the likes of the Jill Steins, and other frauds, and took an active role after the Democratic convention to undermine and campaign, not only against the Democratic nominee, but the Democratic party in probably the most important election of our lifetime. As bad as that was, the worst part is most of them have no remorse or regret, and would do it again.

Some have reflected that they don't recall things being this bad at DU, and I suspect the reason for that is the daily barrage of horrendous things that the WH, and the republicans in Congress are doing to dismantle all the progress that had been made on Civil Rights, Workers Rights, Women's rights, the environment, etc., that is now systematically being destroyed. It may take years or decades to recover from this, and a good number of folks may not survive the damage that this WH, and a complicit republican Congress is doing.

That elicits anger, and it should be no surprise that expression of anger is going to be directed at those they preceive to have been complicit in what happened in 2016.

Every Democrat running for Senate in those critical swing states in 2016 lost to the establishment, incumbent, republican
