Bernie Sanders Says Trump Won Because Democrats Are Out Of Touch

130. I absolutely, but respecfully, disagree with your assessment.

As I stated, I've been a Democrat for nearly 40 years. I've seen major changes in how my party approaches elections. Splitting people into little groups has been the biggest downfall for us. We used to be the big tent party, but that's no longer true. I'll say it again. We lost (and have been losing) because we abandoned a large segment of the blue collar Democrats of all colors and stripes across this country. Until we get back to that model (a 50 state model and not a coastal model) we will continue on a path to irrelevance.

I understand that these are harsh words. I also understand that many progressives will not want to hear this. But until we realize that we are truly on the wrong path, nothing will change.
