Even Bern victims admit that they're children by slacktivist 11/20/2016, 1:59pm PST
Iowa delegate @chris_laursen: "Bernie basically fed us a bunch of Mountain Dew and now he wants us to go to bed. It’s not going to happen."

When Trump gets less votes than Romney and 5% of the electorate that voted for Obama abstained, there's zero disputing that this election was lost by stay at home and protest voting progressives.

There's this running egocentric attitude with them that the election is a courting process. A candidate must sufficiently court them before they will "put out" with their vote. The wining and dining not fancy enough? Nobody gets laid! "I'm not voting because I don't like either candidate!"

That doesn't work when it's an election. One of the two candidates WILL win and be running this country for years to come. This will impact everyone's life, in ways much more serious and real than Hillary not springing for the fancy Italian restaurant.

Like the article said, children ruined this election and now it's up to the adults to try and limit the damage done by them for the next 4 years.
