Bernie got killed among moderate voters in both of his primaries.

The primaries were railroaded against him. Just ask Jim Clyburn or Wasserman-Schulz

No, they weren't. He just did awful among voters outside the youth vote and they barely showed up anyways.

Clyburn endorsing someone else isn't railroading anymore than AOC endorsing Bernie in 2020.

9 years bub, they make up a larger demographic of voters than they did in 2016.

That doesn't negate they weren't a majority in either 2016 or 2020.
