      Popular vote: HRC: 16,917,853 Bernie: 13,210,550
      Percentage: 55.2%, 43.1%

      We’ve been discussing how Bernie lost the popular vote this entire time. It was a brutal defeat where he was 2 digit percent margin. Even worse, in 2020 he lost to Joseph Biden when Biden literally doubled his vote.

          There is a concerted effort to keep everyone in the dark about this, including Americans, so it’s totally understandable.

            Bro it’s fucking exhausting how many progressive spaces refuse to admit that Bernie didn’t fucking get the votes to be the nominee. By like, a landslide.

            I do think that in hindsight Clinton should have made him her VP choice though.
