For all the talk about saving democracy they kinda forgot the "run a candidate that can win" bit

People can trash talk Trump's policies, and there is a LOT to talk about, but underneath it all is the massive failure of the democratic party

They can't run a candidate that can win because that would require a platform that steps on too many donors' toes.

Regardless of the candidate, they didn't seem to even have a contingency plan if trump won.

Or even a plan for if someone worse than trump had won
