Just for the sake of discussion what if Bernie was nominated?

60. Not only all of what you posted...

Allegedly, that fat, greasy, woman-beating Nazi Bannon was also going to turn Bernie into a child-hating pedophile, because he voted against the Amber Alert bill which would have criminalized some forms of child pornography. THEN if that wasn't bad enough, he was going to go hard at what Bernie said in his 1972 essay about women, rape and also publish--how can I say--the more juicer parts of the essay written in his OWN words. Now, we KNOW how tRump loves to project--so we know he'd have been calling Bernie a pedophile and rapist 24/7, and of course the so-called liberal media that doesn't exist would have run with it. And Bernie, who many people still don't know that much about--would have have had to explain away why he voted against the Amber Alert Bill and explain away the more "provocative" parts of his 1972 sexually themed essay IE: a woman "fantasizes being raped by three men simultaneously." Hillary did cover many parts of her economic plans if she ever became president, but the media chose to focus on those emails and the CGI. tRump was like a monkey throwing feces, and he had tons of baggage concerning Russia and the lying he did everytime he opened his mouth, but the media didn't cover it and STILL aren't covering it for the most part (A Nazi, woman-beating, racist and a p***y-grabbing, woman-hating, racist, dumb, pig would have not been called out on their BS either. Hell, the media's mostly STILL giving tRump and his Nazi a pass).

Would have taken Bernie forever to explain ANYTHING away of a sexually explicit nature, especially since tRump got $2 Billion in free air time and would have gone on the attack against Bernie 24/7 like I said, because the media loves talking about salacious things, especially when they concern Democrats.

Lastly, I now feel that since the stakes were SO high for putin tang, no matter what Dem ran, the Russians were gonna get involved IE: cyber-hacking, and how do we know that rapist assange wouldn't have made up some fake emails with his russian besties making Bernie look bad for something he may not have even said? Like Putin was gonna say, "Let's see if he can win the presidency on his own--let's not cyber-hack HIM." Or, like the GOP was gonna say "Hey, let's not mess with the good Dems of MI. or with their votes. Hey, let's not disenfranchise ANY Dem voter, even in NC or WI." putin tang wanted his puppet boy in there, and Bernie wouldn't have been spared.

"But Sanders supporters puffing up their chests as they arrogantly declare Trump would have definitely lost against their candidate deserve to be ignored."

I can ONLY speak for the Bernie supporters that I know, and ALL of them--seeing what happened with this election that was hacked and given to tRump, they too feel that Bernie wouldn't have been spared by the media, GOP voter disenfranchisement, or by Bannon/tRump calling him a pedophile/rapist 24/7. The deck was stacked against almost ALL Democrats.
