Yeah. Bernie was relying on huge voter turnout from people who do not traditionally vote at high rates. A very risky strategy and it's usually doomed to fail.

On the other hand, I think the Dems have made the best choice to take on Trump (compared to Sanders). The coronavirus is forcing me to recalculate my predictions, I think it's only marginal Trump now, say 55/45.

Still 8 months to go, and the Dems are getting their act together.

There’s going to be a few more crises after corona.
They’ll probably impeach Trump again before November. They need to take him out completely.

There's a point to be made that there was a strong anti-Hilary vote in 2016, both in the Dem primaries & in the general, especially in a place like Michigan. But now that is gone.

I hope Bernie supports vote for Trump.

The democrats created probably one of the biggest Coup d'état's in history.

All irrelevant, because they have the electoral college.
 
Why do you guys (especially the Democrat supporters here) think Warren failed in her bid?

I saw an article that basically said it was sexism, that they'd rather have one of two ou toppies than a 70 year old women be president.

But then, wouldn't Democratic voters be less likely to hold "sexist" beliefs than Republicans?

Because she is a joke. Pocahontas.
And she tried to out Bernie, Bernie with progressivism when he has the real commie credentials and she is actually just a Champagne socialist.

Yeah I saw it was blamed on sexism yet weirdly when Klouchbar bowed, there weren't so many articles on her.

Think she came across as a too intellectual / lecturer type. Appealed to white college graduates but no-one else. Also, she was on the same ground as Bernie in many respects, creating confusion amongst more left-wing voters.

I think Americans as a phenomenon are inherently back about 50 years from Europe.
I really don't think they're ready to accept a female president just yet.

Because socialism and identity politics isn't going to win back the people who used to vote Democrat.
