Your point literally doesn't remain because if you add all the primary votes, it still doesn't reach anywhere near what Trump achieved.

My point is that she got less than what came out to vote in the primary for the general. My point is that centrism doesn't excite people to come out while populism does. I'm also gonna drop this little factoid for you real quick. Trump ran as a fake populist.

Democrats won the House in 2018 because a lot of suburban white voters were fed up with Trump's populism and rhetoric.

Anyway, I love how you deflected my main point - in which I questioned Bernie's strategy to pass his legislation hinging in primarying Democrats like Joe Manchin. Sure, that may be achievable in the Northeast with a couple Senators. In West Virginia, it will only achieve having a far-right Republican who'd vote for McConnell as majority leader.
