Sanders was polling way higher vs Trump than Clinton vs Trump. Bernie would have won. if you don't believe that, then Clinton winning the popular vote should say enough. She was the worst candidate ever, Bernie was not. He lost the primary because it was rigged.

It could be but I'm not so sure about it. In any way, by that logic if every Bernie Supporter voted for Hillary we wouldn't be in this current mess. Which makes butthurt Bernie supporters reprehensible

Do you think it is a winning strategy for the future to demean Sanders supporters? 

More Clinton voters didn't vote for Obama in 2008 than Sanders voters didn't vote for Clinton in 2016. Obama still won in 2008, and won again in 2012.  He knew how to appeal to people and craft a winning message. Despite overwhelming financial advantage over Trump Clinton didn't, that falls on her and in 2020 we should expect a better candidate and a better campaign.
