 Trump did what Bernie never could

The GOP hated Trump when he was running. Did everything to get him out. Don’t work, he ruled the day in 2016.

The democrats need more fuck you candidates if they want a future 🤷🏼‍♂️ 
 There is an alternate universe where the DNC doesn’t screw Bernie out of the 2016 nomination and Trump is deleted from the political timeline having never taken power in the first place.

Oh, what could have been… 
 Any progressive could come out right now and pin this loss on the establishment democrats, potentially setting themselves up to be a front runner next election cycle. 

The only person I could even imagine doing something like that is Rashida Tlaib, but I doubt she will. Democrats have no future. Need a workers party with maybe Shawn Fain or the other guy I can't remember his name leading. 
 They better start denouncing zionism left and right to gain any kind of credibility back.  
 Zero chance of that happening. 
 Kamala obviously wasn’t even an elected candidate. She was the least popular VP ever. 

Firstly the democrats need to have a primary like every other presidential election year ever. Secondly they’ve had fuck you candidates but their deep state puppet masters cancel and demonize them. See Bernie and Tulsi. Democrats need a massive overhaul IMO. They’ve lost the plot.
