Could you explain this for someone outside the US?

  American progressives hate establishment democrats, thinking they are too market oriented and not sufficiently socialist. They don’t really accept the legitimacy of the democratic primary process when their preferred candidate, Bernie Sanders, is unable to secure the nomination. They believe that his inability to pass legislation, or persuade voters to support him, is a mark of his authenticity. This is highly sarcastic but true.
