Just think, he could have had a chance at the Presidency but the centrist Dems couldn’t have that and he had to fight the full force of the Ds and Rs.

Good thing we learned our lesson from that :)

He lost the popular vote in the primaries both times he ran. He never had a chance because he's a dogshit politician.

He had the whole Democrat party establishment against him. He did well for being supported entirely by a grass roots movement.

Trump had the entire Republican and liberal and media establishment against him but he overcame. Sounds like a lot of cope. Clearly Bernie didn’t have it.

Ironically, the Republicans primary is more fair if you have the money to run.

As far as everyone being against Trump, if I recall that started to change right around the time that the Russians hacked some Democrats emails.
