What wave?
Progressive wave. Anti corporate wave. Blue wave. Only way forward for the United states.
I hope not. And if he’s stupid enough to try, he better be an independent.
Bernie running as an indy splits the left vote and guarantees Cheeto victory in 2020 and ultimately the downfall of the country.

That's what you want, huh?

You can’t keep calling candidates, many of whom are running for the first time “establishment democrats”

Establishment is this pejorative term you all use to insult anyone who doesn’t get Bernie approval or co-signs.

So which is it? Do you support progressives or only Bernie? How do you know the difference?

This is borderline religious at this point

That's a hell of a strawman you spun. This is my answer because your post has nothing to do with what I said and is just making false accusations to support nonexistent point.


Lets discuss the article?
Let's. I'd need to see the breakdown of Progressive Dems vs Establishment Dems and what the vote count was for each race. However, I agree that Progressives are still energizing the base and pushing Progressive ideas into the party. So even if Progressives lose all of their remaining races, the base is still going to expect Dems to push Progressives ideas. If the Dems don't deliver, then Progressives will replace them. The Progressive base is growing to the point that that eventuality will come sooner than later.

Well Bernie should do the math and stop attacking people whose infrastructure and resources he depends on.

The problem is the framing of the argument. The base is shifting left but Bernie is too inflammatory and attacks his supposed allies and doesn’t do enough to corral his supporters who don’t understand how important the Democratic Party is.

Yeah. Votes. Funny shyt.
in that case, your centrism is dead. Your people lost the entire rust belt, in addition to 1000 seats over the last 8 years

you only use that "votes. funny shyt" nonsense when it helps your narrative.
Your energy is completely different when your candidate didn't get the votes she needed in the rust belt, and proceeded to lose to a cheetoh
