Yeah I do have my shitposting sprees. Don't worry, that's the last shade you'll see me throw. Enjoy your victory.
You heavily implied I was both of those things in your earlier post, don't try and weasel your way out of that. I did argue against your baseless accusation of me being a hypocrite, because you've proven you have no idea how to actually use the term.
I could have easily said in the beginning that I wasn't being serious with that post and just came to bait (though I did and got infracted for it), but instead I chose to own up to it and admit my fault. You're still here desperately trying to move the goalposts. Move on.

No you don't get it it's not about left or right anymore what does Trump, Obama and Bernie have in common populism. That's what the DNC seems to miss in 2016 people want change whether it's from the left or the right that's why centrism is doomed to lose power. You either stand for something or nothing at all voters aren't happy with the establishment.
People don't care about policy anymore they just want change that's why Biden got such a lukewarm victory.
What would easily win an election is a middle aged white male with a populist message, Bernie has too much baggage and frankly I don't see a woman having a shot at the presidency. Kamala Harris has virtually no chance of winning an election the country is just not there yet.
How do we know this hypothetical? Because so far Biden has won across party lines, flipping a negative amount of Republicans. His was, so far because we don't have all the numbers yet, is due to increased turn out from the Left. Both registered Democrats and NPAs.
Unless you're suggesting that Democrats wouldn't have voted to spite Bernie you can infer the same people would have voted for him. Also Leftist/progressive policy and candidates did great in their down ballots nation wide ie Florida rejecting Democrats but passive progressive amendments.
An actual hypothetical is what would have happened had COVID19 not been a thing. Trump was up in the polls until he started fucking up in the polls. He is actually one of the few leaders who didn't see gain during the summer because he dropped the ball so hard.
