I would have fought tooth and nail to vote for Bernie Sanders.

As it stood, we moved during the voting period. The wife and I were registered neither in our home state or our new state and couldn't vote. Where we moved was deep red and it wouldn't have mattered, but I would have liked to give a formal middle finger to the dipshit-elect.

I don't understand this "we need old people out of politics" while demanding Bernie Sanders. It's hypocrisy to just want YOUR old guy in power. I like his ideas but they need to come from someone younger does he not have a protoge or something? There's just something about Sanders that will turn off more people than gain I think. And if you can't gain the support of even the Democratic party you can't possibly win.

Age was never a factor to me.

Bernie is, for America, VERY left of status quo democrats. I'd like to see that, even for four years.

But that movement can't even win a nomination let alone the presidency. You guys can't win without allies and you've alienated them all this election. The far left Bernie Bros went full bigot and racist election
