They have lost election after election, Sanders himself lost the Democratic primary. Its just constructive criticism right? Just so anyone knows this is in response to Senator Sanders himself saying this "Im often asked by the media and others: How did it come about that Donald Trump, the most unpopular presidential candidate in the modern history of our country, won the election?" Sanders said. "And my answer is that Trump didnt win the election; the Democratic Party lost the election. Let us be very, very clear: The current model and the current strategy of the Democratic Party is an absolute failure."
The quote in the title is mine.
The quote above is Senator Sanders in full.
Ill add this,
"Trump didn't win the election, the Democratic party including Senator Sanders lost the election since he lost the primary and didn't even get to move on to the next level to compete against Dump."
My quotes.
Is this re fighting the primary?
No, since Senator Sanders said this well after the primary.
Some, shoot maybe a lot of you are tired of hearing about this. I understand that. I'm tired of talking about this myself. What I see is a divided party where one side is still fighting against the other. You don't see Democrats trying to primary liberal independents or Clinton attacking the Sander wing. Sanders can say what he wants about Clinton, Clinton about Sanders, that's a personal thing. But only one side is attacking the whole party for the most part.
And we do have much, much, more important things to work on.
In a perfect world this is what I would as a Democrat want to hear from the Sanders wing.
"I think the Democratic party relies on or does this that I think is wrong but at this time this party represents more of my values than the other major party and I will work with them to create positive changes and hopefully enact some of the changes that I think can better every Americans lives. We will continue to work with our closest allies to enact this and realize that we will have to compromise some but I believe we can make historic changes."
Simple.
Flame on.
