I'm not sure if you volunteer for the campaign, etc.

But if so- please, please try and raise a point about learning some lessons here.

This wasn't the establishment. This wasn't party stalwarts. This wasn't big money.

This was a majority of voters- the people who actually showed up to cast a ballot- choosing a senile segregationist apologist over the movement.


The question ya'll should be asking- it how the fuck did that happen? And...what can we do better moving forward?

Hillary was an awful candidate...yet Bernie lost to her.

Joe is an awful candidate...yet Bernie is losing to him.


We all want the same things here- but the movement needs to learn some big lessons, man.

Big lessons.
