Calling Hillary liberal or progressive doesn't make it true.

Saying Bernie is sexist or made a sexist remark to Hillary doesn't make it true.

Saying Hillary is better on social justice issues than Bernie doesn't make it true.

Saying Bernie can't win in the general doesn't make it true.

There's a whole bunch more you missed but I think you get the point.
