    Why do democrats love bad candidates?

    They could’ve had Bernie fricken Sanders!

      Bernie Sanders would have been a mess. He would probably increase minimum wage, introduce healthcare for all, making a nuclear deal with Iran, and call Russia the enemy again, and secure relations with all US allies.

      All those things are anti American now. The new America is opposite America. Try to keep up!

      /s (just in case)

        There already was a nuclear deal with Iran from Obama’s administration. Trump tore it up for literally no reason.

          Trump tore it up for literally no reason.

          The reason was to later say that there was no treaty and Iran would have nukes “within weeks,” as Netanyahu has warned us for over 30 years.

          Oh, he had reasons. It has to do with people like PEDOnald having their brain broken by the existence of a black President.

        He would have given us 4 years of government gridlock because the Supreme Court and Congress would have absolutely shut down anything he tried to do.

        Which still would have been great. I just don’t think he would have accomplished much of his agenda.

          Sad part is that is how lots of Americans think.

          Yes if Trump still has 41% support, there must be A LOT of Americans that think like that.
          Here we call thinking like that being insane. In USA it’s called being right wing.

      Why do democrats love bad candidates?

      Because billionaires own all of the media. And billionaires don’t like progressives.
