why wouldn't they? Bernie's interests are aligned completely opposite to the interests of whatever groups that keep at least half of those democrats in their seats. That became much more clear when they happily voted no to Bernie's "ban weapon sale to Israel" motions.

Good question.

If Democrats were reasonable, objective people (which they are not), they'd probably look at the fact that the state of Missouri passed a $15 minimum wage, required paid sick leave, AND legalized abortion in the same election where they elected Republicans.

And then take that as a lesson of maybe what they should be doing in order to win back red states.

But they won't.

They're in the pocket of the rich and couldn't care less about people who work for a living.

This is so confusing. Which party, if any, was supporting those measures? How'd they get on the ballot?

But Biden won lol the 2016 election is a way better example. Sanders did worse in 2019

People vote, not land.

Biden doubled Bernie's votes in the 2020 primaries. Which Bernie was a part of because the DNC chose him to participate in.
