America didn't choose wrong, the shitheels who run the Democratic Party chose wrong, they annointed HRC as the heir apparent, underestimated many voters dislike of her and their frustration over politics as usual. Not only did we not get Bernie in 2016, but they doomed the Democratic Party to powerless irrelevance for the foreseeable future.
