Bernie was against Trump. Going third party and taking votes away from democrats in an election against Trump would hurt him.

Sanders was essentially a no name senator from a tiny ass state before he used the Democratic primary to become the most popular politician in the US. He chose the pragmatic route of endorsing Clinton which allowed him to push more leftism on the Democrats. The idea that he could have suddenly started a new party and overtaken both the Democrats and Republicans is insane.

...you realize that would split the votes on the democrat side and help Trump win, right? The Democratic Party offered him more insight and willingness to work WITH him to get some of his ideas on the table. His best option was to side with a Democrat, whoever it was, than try to beat Trump himself with a good amount of votes that would have gone for him going to Hillary.

At least the route he took he didn't burn all of his bridges and now he can use his new popularity to enact change and legislation in the senate. If he'd tried what RiderofHogs suggests, Trump still would have won and Bernie wouldn't have the influence he currently does.

His action would have been better if he martyred himself for the cause rather than bend over. This was something bigger than one election.

Yea it was bigger. Thats why his goal was to prevent Trump from wining. A sure 0% chance at none of his ideas getting a voice was not a better option. You can keep trying to spin it however you want. Martyr? lmao.

Yea unfortunately you have the right to which is good. Im just saying youre the type of person who should never vote, is all. Your immaturity and jr high attitude is why we have problems politically like the ones you so often bitch about. But you cant see why because youre more concerned with revenge and spite than what you actually believe in, if you even believe in anything to begin with.

You have the right to do it. I said you do. I just wish you wouldnt. You claim to support what Bernie stood for yet you voted against what he stood for and voted for someone out of spite who is unraveling anything and everything Bernie stood for.

Like I said, more power to you. It just sucks that people like you do that. You think youre fighting the good fight but you just voted against yourself. You dont care about the issues or what you actually stand for. You just cared about revenge which is stupid IMO. But hey, do you my dude. Just offering my opinion. What the DNC did was bad, but was it worse than having absolutely none of Bernies policies get a voice? Having a SC judge who would likely favor against what Bernie stood for for Life? You voted irrationally IMO.

Honestly, if I were to vote in 2016, even knowing everything that would happen in the subsequent years, I would have voted for Trump. And it's for one reason only, Clinton didn't play fairly. Under no circumstances should you ever undermine the system which Clinton did through basically controlling the DNC. I can't support that even if she's the better candidate. It'll reek of hypocrisy on my part if we come to a situation where we get another candidate who's does the same grey acts Clinton did (since her embezzlement and getting the Superdelegates to vote for her first were legal) , but their polices and views are despicable. You could argue that it's a different set of circumstances and we're just choosing what we can to survive, but that mindset means that you don't have any real integrity or don't have ideals to stand behind.

And this encourages the Democratic party to not have to change for the better since they still get what they want in the end. In fact just recently, I believe the DNC just set a rule to prevent super delegates from voting at the beginning of the primary season. Sometimes you have to fail before you can see success.
