Hillary passed over for VP the guy who won 45% of the electable delegates because he was an outsider.

I bet she'd like a do-over on that one.

actually, blaming either the (initial) Hillary Supporters or the (initial) Bernie supporters, or the third party supporters for that matter is really short-sighted.

Hillary had 3M more votes than F*#kface von Clownstick. The problem is she didn't get votes in 4 key states. One state she didn't even campaign in. Meanwhile the orange turd went to those states and lied to them that their jobs would return. The DNC blew it there as well.

I live in Colorado and so my vote really didn't count. I could have voted for anyone. Same goes for a buttload of people in California, etc. etc.

You'd have to argue those blue-collar middle class voters were somehow initially Bernie supporters or third party supporters for your assertion to have any weight, Joseph. But they were not. They were not showing up to the huge Bernie rallies. They didn't appear in the polls. They sat the fence. Quietly. Said nothing. When one candidate lied to them about getting jobs back they listened. And meanwhile the other one gaffed with the "all coal jobs going way" comment (yes, radically taken out of context as we all know she was promising alternative energy jobs). That one gaff cost her a state or two.

This was a hack job by the DNC never recognizing the potential of that vote. But to be fair nobody recognized that vote. Nate Silver didn't and that speaks volumes.

So don't go blaming those of us who still to this day believe Bernie was a better choice. That won't get you anywhere. I said then and I said now, in the face of everyone arguing Bernie couldn't get anything done, my response was simple - he could get one thing done and that's beat the orange turd.

Bullshit Barbie...That's growing on me...I loved it when she threw a hissy fit and told the interviewer that the White House was not going to have a relationship with the press if they kept up the interogations over Trumps inauguration crowd size...Then she rambled on about Americans not having health insurance coverage...

Lads & lasses, a tip 'o the hat to all posting here. I must say that overall the thoughtfulness and humor on this page is vastly superior to what I see on the more mainstream news sites for comment content. Even the snark is of a substantially higher quality. I have always thought the climbing community was a cut above, and I think that even more now.
Cheers to all, regardless of where you land on the great political solid solution series.

Bullsh#t. Bottom line? If you didn't vote for hillary then you voted for trump by another means and today's shitstorm is on your heads. After twice screwing the pooch and throwing the world into disarray with Nader2000 and Bernie2016, maybe in 2020 you folks will wake the f*#k up and smell the roses.

Bernie couldn't have beaten trump, period - he didn't have the support in the south or west to do it. And sinking to the same level as the gop in demonizing hillary cost not only the election, but lost the supreme court as well which is what this election was really about - not personalities. So not only did a bunch of you not listen to bernie and elect hillary - you just put the progressive agenda on ice for the next thirty to forty years and probably more like sixty because it will take twenty to thirty years to repair the damage that's about to be done in the next four.

Nice, eh?

Apparently, Hillary didn't have the support either.

But Hillary and Bernie could have.

And of course if Hillary hadn't tried to go for the electoral landslide and focused on the rust belt, instead of Arizona and Texas, she could have beaten Trump on her own.
