2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: If Berners don't want to be called right-wingers. [View all]brush
(61,033 posts)61. I'm sure we've went over this before. The Obama coalition, remember?
Latino Americans, African Americans, sensible progressive whites who don't want Trump appointing the next 3-4 SCOTUS justices, Native Americans, gays, women, disabled Americans, and sensible left-leaning and moderate independents who also don't want Trump appointing the next 3-4 SCOTUS justices will come out and vote in Clinton just as we didn't for Obama in '08 and '12.
We outnumber the angry and/or racist whites that back Trump. That was shown in '12 when Romney got a huge majority of the white vote but still lost handily.

Oh now it's not even your party, huh? Not to worry though. Trump will lose spectacularly.

They can't help themselves. Their candidate couldn't win on the merits. He's too far behind.

Are you kidding? The current Democratic establishment largely legislates and operates right wing.
