I don't think Bernie could have won.
- Glyptodon 2y agoI do. Even my Fox News grandma liked him. So many people were looking for an excuse to not vote for Trump without feeling blackmailed into HC in 2016.
- adamtaylor_13 2y agoThe number of people I know who voted for Trump, AND Bernie—is incredibly high. Now we'll never know!
- roncesvalles 2y agoOnly Bernie had a personality cult to rival Trump's. I don't think a single person loved Hillary - they were just okay with her. Many, many people fanatically loved Bernie.
- bentcorner 2y ago> many people fanatically loved Bernie Loved? I still love the guy, afaik nobody else in the senate has such an authentic passion for civil rights and activism. He's real. It was a massive disservice that HC ran.
- johnnyanmac 2y agoloved enough to get people out to the polls? I'm not sure. We keep underestimating human apathy. Meanwhile, Trump runs on fear, one of the best emotions to exploit for turnout.
- hackinthebochs 2y agoBernie definitely would have defeated Trump. He had unique crossover appeal. Trump was extremely unpopular in 2016 and it took a historically disliked candidate to lose to him.
- dom96 2y agoI'm almost certain he would have.
