With "She's not fit," Bernie caused Hillary to lose to Trump. Oh, a lot of Bernie supports did vote for her, but a lot sat out or voted for Putin-buddy Stein.

No, Hillary was just not a great candidate. While she is a wonderful politician, and certainly well qualified, the extremist right had for years pounded away to make far too many either distrustful or outright hateful of the Clintons (unjustly). Comey certainly did his damage with that last minute 'reopening the investigation' - but certainly, it was the main stream media that liked the clicks and the glitz that trump brought to their bottom lines, rather than a commitment to education the public - a failure of their duties. And let's not forget, the manipulation that drump did to 'catch and kill' the stories that likely would have busted his chances of winning back then. Now, sadly, the Magas have lost all sense of morality and decency, but back then, I think it might have made a difference.

And the underpinning for all that was misogyny. Did you not see the "Bern the Witch" t-shirts?
