Many of the people yelling “Bernie could never beat Trump!” know in their hearts that maybe he could - but they themselves don’t want it so they’re just saying that. “He’s too extreme!” What an age we’re living in, that healthcare and education and justice for all seem “extreme.”

Cognitive dissonance makes them say ridiculous things automatically contradicted by reality.

I wouldn't say its more extreme than in the McCarthy era. It's probably getting to that extreme. I think we might be heading into another Red Scare.

"that maybe he could" just isn't good enough given magnitude of the threat we're facing! We SHOULD all want as solid a defense as possible and Bernie will cause us to lose House & Senate even if he could somehow miraculously win WH

Well let’s just light some sage wave it around and that should pay for it all at the same time as reducing the massive dept Donnie got us into

One of the drawbacks of a winner takes all system, is that you end up with a 2 party system. Candidates who don't fit as Democrats or Republican are forced to join those parties to have any chance. That's not Bernie's fault. Bring on Ranked choice voting.

Plus those are the talking points being pressed by the media.

Bigger Gov't Marianne, fulfilling the physical&spiritual needs of the people is not the answer,sadly our young are buying into&the jubilee being promised.Bernie,God bless him,is an avowed"socialist"&such is not what has made America the light to the world,which it has been.Pray

It is not his followers who are saying that or doing that. Reality is that many, and possibility too many, will not vote for him. Many just cannot accept his ideology and the S word or how he will fulfill his promises. We need to beat Trump without fail!

if people support Bernie ... he'll will ... if, with all their reasons and justifications, they don't support Bernie ... then he might not win ... you get what you believe!
